They're interested in the £350m a week we pay in though?

Because the politicians dithered and dallied about, trying to play mind games with each other to avoid having to make a decision . . which leads us to

No matter what the eventual outcome, politicians will be blamed for it . . and I doubt that any one of them will escape some kind of backlash from Joe public.
From the top to the bottom, they've all played a part to some degree

Are they really expecting nuclear war? I know the EU are rightly upset with us, but that's a bit harsh of them !

BREAKING: Financial Times now reporting, Theresa May is willing to accept a No Deal Brexit:
Quote:
In the early hours of Wednesday morning, Theresa May made a momentous choice. After a day of acrimonious debate in her cabinet and inner circle, the prime minister decided that she was willing to take Britain out of the EU without a deal.
At Thursday’s European Council meeting in Brussels, EU diplomats wondered whether Mrs May was bluffing, but those close to the prime minister said if she cannot secure her Brexit deal she is determined the UK should embark on a no-deal exit.
Since announcing on Wednesday that she would ask EU leaders for a short extension to the bloc’s Article 50 process — to delay Brexit from March 29 to June 30 — people who have spoken to the prime minister said she is reconciled to the implications of what happens if the UK parliament continues to reject her withdrawal agreement.
“The mood has hardened on no deal,” said one person close to the prime minister. One Eurosceptic Conservative MP who met Mrs May on Wednesday night said: “She didn’t seem concerned about leaving with no deal.”

Indeed, but the vote was not legally binding, what's in the Statute Book is.
