Yeah, let's tell 'em exactly that, super clever approach to negotiations. -
UK: We want a rebate on the fees
EU: OK
UK: We don't want to be in the Euro
EU: OK
UK: We don't want to be in Shengen
EU: OK
UK: We want a restriction on benefits until people have worked here for some time
EU: OK
UK: We want to stop child benefit being paid for children who aren't in the UK
EU: OK
UK: We want to kick out people who come here but don't work and can't afford to support themselves.
EU: That's fine, you already can.
UK: We want loads of preferential treatment that other countries don't get
EU: Errr, can't really give that without everyone agreeing
UK: Don't give us what we want and we'll leave
EU: That's a bit of an over reaction, but your choice
UK: OK we're leaving
EU: Bye then
UK: Now we're leaving, we want all the things we had before
EU: Errr, no, it doesn't work like that
UK: Don't give us what we want and we'll leave with nothing,
EU: (Scratches head) OK, umm, well, yeah
UK: We're serious, we'll walk away with nothing to teach you a lesson
EU: Bye (again)“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.”Comment

Indeed. What difference does it may if it's triggered now or 11 days time? Everyone knows she agreed with herself to trigger A50 by the end of the month. So why delay until the end of the month? The bluff has been called, the stage set, the orchestra engaged and she's quaking it behind the curtains.Originally posted by darmstadt View Post
