Your response to the points made about how poorly the government was handling Brexit was to ask when the last time was a government handled anything well. Not much of a response.

I'm actually complaining about the bungling of Brexit. I don't believe Brexit is destined for great success unless it's properly planned and managed, and this has not to date happened. I think it's totally reasonable to anticipate negative impacts if it is mismanaged and carried out with a lack of planning. I don't, whatever you seem to think, believe that it's a project that would be doomed to failure under any circumstances and should be reversed "at all costs". It just seems to me that to allow the current shambles to continue simply to see through Brexit is totally misguided and damaging. The whole process has been a joke and a shining example of how not to carry out such a significant national project.

Some people just won't listen to anything that remotely criticises the direction of travel unless it comes out of the mouth of Ayatolah Rees-Mogg.

Just today the public accounts committee has criticised the government of a significant deficit in planning for Brexit. This kind of thing would get you sacked in business. There are 313 workstreams. When I worked on a merger of a division of a FTSE 250 company and a Fortune 500 company we had 11 workstreams and it took over 18 months of planning from conceptions to completion.

The committee’s deputy chairman, leave-backing Tory MP Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, said Brexit was a “complicated task with the potential to become a damaging and unmanageable muddle”.

“It is concerning that government departments still have so far to go to put their plans into practice. [The] real world will not wait for the government to get its house in order,” he said.

Whether you're pro or anti-Brexit you shouldn't be content with what's going on, and as we can see from the ICM poll most people aren't.

You'd rather fiddle while Rome burns?

This is the principal of unripe time. The time to make a decision on how this process should be run is now. Leaving it is too dangerous. I understand this principal and why people leave difficult decisions until they are too late. I would hope that the Tories could see past their own self interests on this one and get rid of May.

As I pointed out 80% of people who believe social liberalism and feminism are forces for ill voted for Brexit. So it clearly has something to do with it for some people.

It’s meaningless. Your explanation is vague and I have asked for a clarification. You will believe anything spoon fed to you by Labour.

'jobs first Britain' is just a meaningless platitude.

Looking back I noticed how in fact it can work out exactly the opposite, so mass unemployment must follow !!!!

How about 'land fit for heroes'

and especially 'peace in our time'.

'a country working for all' is a cast-iron guarantee of the opposite.

I won't say this of all remainers.....but this country has a significant number of 'internationalists' who.....in reality are against the idea of an independent nation state. They put economics above any sense of 'belonging'. Indeed, their sense of allegiance is more towards the EU than the UK.

They are soft centered fifth columnists.

Given I didn't administer the survey I don't know, but at the very least they are commonly well known words that each respondent would be able to define with some meaning that the rest of us would recognise.

I don't think a definition is important, it's more the negative feeling those words invoke and the extremely high correlation with voting leave when those negative feelings are invoked.

It's fairly unequivocal, given the findings, that those with a negative view of equal rights for non-white non-straight males were far more likely to have voted leave.

I'm British. Not sure where you thought I was from.

I guess that's about as close to a criticism of May's handling of the situation we'll get from you. When would you like this dream ticket to come in? 2019? I would rather see something done about it now. I would support getting rid of May now if JRM/Boris was my preferred option to run the country. Surely we need the people with the Brexit vision you favour in charge not simply waiting in the wings?

I doubt it will change the EU's tactics all that much. They probably expect May to be gone any day as it is.

He ain't the opposition leader anymore. He's in (a slightly enforced by the President of Germany) coalition with Merkel and has stated today:

Mr Schulz said the SPD had pushed through many of its own policies to the agreement.

"With this coalition agreement, Germany will take an active and leading role in the European Union again."

Optimistic as ever

Oh well.
