The key problem has always been this:
If the EU gave us a good deal there would be a queue around the block to leave the EU, it's not been a great success. The idea is good enough but the execution has not been inspiring and it's caused a lot of serious economic problems in individual member states. It's a neoliberal experiment and it is not as popular in Europe as some people here make out in Europe.
Thus we were always facing a "no deal" exit and the civil service should have been preparing for one from the first day after the referrendum but they did not because they are delusional and incompetant beyond measure, hoped to forge a plan for exit in name only.
It's high time the adults took the helm.Comment

The only reason the Withdrawal Agreement has taken so long is because of the difficulties surrounding the U.K. border with Ireland and the unique circumstances of the GFA. Any other country is free to leave if they want to, but there doesn’t seem to be a queue.
“No Deal” Brexit was never prepared for in the first 18 months because it was then known as “catastrophic” Brexit and there is/was both no mandate for one, nor any majority in Parliament for one. “Easiest deal in history”, remember? The Civil Service get their orders from the government, so if the DExEU didn’t prepare for no deal, then that’s squarely on the minister responsible.
Incompetent beyond measure is right. That would be the Brexiters in charge. Davis, Fox, Raab, etc.Comment

I’m just tired of it all and the viciousness and lack of tolerance that's spilling into other areas of life.
I’ll squash it when I see it or I’m alerted to it."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
