    Who said the following in their Manifesto before the last General Election in the UK?

    1. Yes to the Single Market.
    2. Protect our position in the Single Market and maintain our competitiveness of our world leading financial services industry.
    3. Preserve the integrity of the Single Market by insisting on protections for those countries outside the Euro.
    4. Further expand the single market by breaking down remaining barriers and ensuring that new sectors are opened up for British firms.
    5. Create a real Digital Single Market so Britain's technology entrepreneurs can sell their market beating products across Europe.
    6. Ensure that the EU creates a Single Energy Market across Europe to ensure greater energy security and lower prices for UK Consumers.
    7. We will safeguard British interests in the Single Market.
    8. We benefit from the Single Market.
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          And in the interests of balance there's this Brexit manifesto

          ◾Accept the EU referendum result and "build a close new relationship with the EU" prioritising jobs and and workers' rights
          ◾Guarantee the rights of EU nationals living in the UK and work to "secure reciprocal rights" for UK citizens elsewhere in the EU
          ◾A "meaningful" role for Parliament throughout Brexit negotiations
          ◾Scrap Conservatives' Brexit White Paper and replace with "fresh negotiating priorities" with strong emphasis on retaining the benefits of the single market and customs union
          ◾Reject no deal as a viable option and if needs be negotiate transitional arrangements "to avoid a cliff-edge for the UK economy"
          ◾Keep EU-derived laws on workers' rights, equality, consumer rights and environmental protections
          ◾Maintain UK's leading research role by seeking to stay part of Horizon 2020 and its successor programmes
          ◾Seek to maintain membership of European organisations which offer benefits to the UK such as Euratom and the European Medicines Agency
          ◾Will not allow Brexit to be used as an excuse to undercut UK farmers and flood Britain's food chain with cheap and inferior produce.

            And is the party which had that in their manifesto involved in any negotiations or in government?
            …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

              Dunno. Was it the Monster Raving Loony Party?

                That's all of them then

                  When all's said and done, you're probably right, sadly...
