The best comments from the discussion with Michael Portillo
Mr Neil asked: "If you had known it was going to be like this, would you have voted for Brexit?"
To which Mr Portillo replied: "I would have voted for Brexit, but I am reinforced in my belief that the referendum was a terrible mistake."
Indeed what a mess
If you are going to leave you need a plan.
"I did not anticipate that it would be in a situation where we had pretty much surrendered. Where we had made mess of the negotiations at every conceivable point.
Where the European Union is now able to hold a gun to our heads with its terms for what a no-deal Brexit would look like"
If the UK had put some Brexiteers in charge of the negotiations instead of some lame-duck Bremainers we could have put ourselves in a much better position.
Despite that, we can still put ourselves in a position of being £39Bn to the good before we go back to the table to thrash out the "real" future.
Just need to get shot of these "dead dimwits walking" that are clogging up progress.
HTH BIDI
“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun. And the first vessel to have departed is Britain”
