Where do I start? Firstly many say that we triggered Article 50(or was it 49) too early, I say the opposite. Member states were taken by surprise when the result came in and we then gave 9 months notice for the best brains of 27 countries to put together a united front.
We then had David Davis as Brexit Secretary who did not visit Brussels once in the first quarter of 2017 and the ones following him were equally out of their depth. Mrs Merkel repeatedly asked our PM what the UK wanted and the answer coming back each time was "make me an offer"!! Today the PM is giving a speech on her deal to staff at a factory in Stoke on Trent, does anyone know why?
