I'd agree with you there . . . someone seems to be attempting to steer the boat in the direction others seem to not want to go

Well they don't - as I have said - they were not steering the ship - they have said after leaving their positions they were overruled by the PM or they were bypassed in most of the behind the scene negotiations.
Like Jeremy Corbyn said and I happen to agree with him on this one thing and that is rare - the Brexit Secretary is a Ceremonial role only.

Not very often you see a European advocating Brexit.

I have absolutely no issue with that, what should we charge EU nationals to enter the U.K.?
I think £10 has a nice round feel to it.

No deal Brexit is the only way forward now.
I look forward to it.

For most countries we do not have a such a program. For a few select countries the fee is £15.
I don't think we would introduce it specifically for the EU but if we did do such a program then I imagine it would be £15 for everyone.

What good for the goose and all that. We should treat other blocs reciprocally to how they treat us. simple as.

£15 would probably be worth €7 in the case of a no-deal Brexit so about right.

The post-Brexit drop in the £ hasn't achieved this, it's just led to some of our crown jewel companies like ARM being taken over by overseas companies.

But make the 50% of our food that we import more expensive, though.

Are you going to back that statement with any evidence?
Indeed, we could make food less expensive, by importing food and not having to impose EU tariffs
