I think even most politicans of the Brexit campaign said that it would be a stupid idea to leave the EU without having a deal for the single market etc.

So yeah, the Brexit became one big shitshow from my point of view.
Nobody will be really happy, whatever the final outcome will be.


Great Britain should take their time and work on a solid Brexit plan before invoken Article 50. But now we are here.
The question in the referendum was whether we wanted to remain or Leave, leave with a deal wasn't on the ballot paper and rightly so since a deal wasn' in the government's gift to deliver. Could you imagine if there was a "Leave with a deal" result in the referendum? The EU would have come up with something even worse than we have at the moment. The only sensible plan is the one we have now; give us a deal parliament can accept or we leave without a deal. Unfortunately the establishment don't like that as it might actually mean delivering on the result of the referendum.

It was made quite clear, by the Prime Minister of the day and others, that after Article 50 was invoked we had two years to negotiate a deal and after that we were out on WTO terms. The government took 9 months to come up with a plan, more than enough time to come up with a good one. Unfortunately it wasn't and it seems that our government can't do negotiation any more - not exactly a surprise because while we've been in the EU, bureaucrats in Brussels negotiate do our negotiation for us (with zero accountability of course).
