May will go down in history books as the PM who was gutless in making a decision, says no but with no alternative She just kept meaning that in negotiations they will decide! who is they the EU and her negotiators , but not her. May wants to pass the buck onto anyone who will make the decision.
She fails to stand up to the hard brexiteers by saying we will leave the Customs union whist offering no alternative , except one that is almost the same as we are leaving !
Fundamentally it seems to boils down to 3 criteria.
1 We want to do trade deals with anyone , despite the fact that if we do it will undercut the rest of the EU when we compete against them, unfair marketing As with any trade agreements unfair competition is usually covered, so we gain very little except trying to duck and dive and make sharp deals for a quick buck to help those multinationals again .
2 Control over our borders and immigration, we already have the power to do so much already within the EU , but fail to use what we could achieve, But it does hurt people and that wants to be screened under a banner of Brexit not any party.
3 Sovereignty means just being greedy and just looking after oneself and not negotiating a compromise and trusting others in partnerships of trade, and business in particular.
The making of our own laws is selfish , mainly because it victimises the other partners by not allowing an equal reciprocal arrangement.
I believe the Uk is becoming a very selfish and inward looking as a country, and it will pay a very high price in all aspects of our society as we know it.
We are challenged enough already from external events which we are not addressing at all and in fact ignoring them in all respects at present, I mean Climate Change ; Air, water, land and ecological pollution .
Globally we are at a precipice of collapse and all we seem to be interested in is looking at what colour our trade relations ships are and casting our friendships, trust, and families away into the pond to drown.
