With hindsight perhaps what May should have done when taking office was to say, “OK you want Brexit that’s decided but what type of Brexit do you want? I will research all practical options and then present them to you (i.e. by referendum) to pick.”
That is basically what they have been doing for the last couple of years. Remainers have asked from the outset what does Brexit mean – and the silence was deafening.
May has now finally set out her interpretation of what it means, and I think that the neutered Brexit Bulldog has hinted in his speeches that this was his intended final offer to the EU. He was miffed as he does not think it a good idea to negotiate with cards on the table. However all the noise and furore has probably given May the ability of telling the EU that the alternative could be a complete Brexit shambles.
I am glad that Bojo has thrown in his cards. The last two years have demonstrated that he is too immature to hold high office in any Government or even business for that matter. We are better off as a country without him.
