Who could have realistically have had a foolproof plan for jumping into the unknown, this is years worth of legislation.
I just don’t understand how leavers thought it would be that simple , they got their wish now in my opinion they should have the good grace to be patient , I do hope though that it won’t be like a longed for Christmas present, exciting to receive & unwrap, but bitterly disappointing in reality.

Extremely difficult (previously unknown) circumstances
I take that point but couldn't that be interpreted as blundering into an unknown situation with no real plan or understanding of the problems involved?
DC primarily to blame of course while T M was left to shovel the s***.

Totally agree with both Bridgeit and Gillybob.

It was never going to be a speedy task, when do the EU move at anything other than a lumbering pace and from the UK side there was much to be thought about.
T May and all concerned ( civil service etc) will be doing the best they can do for a good result.

Oh I totally agree with you Bridgeit As a Remainer I sincerely wish I could wake up to find this was all a bad dream but that isn’t going to happen is it. I think TM is doing her best in extremely difficult (previously unknown) circumstances. Easy to criticise but I wonder if anyone else could have made a better job of it? Really?

Given the length of the very informative cut & paste articles posted on this site ref Leaving EU,isn’t it time leavers stopped saying ‘just get on with it’ surely if the cut & pastes are anything to go by, it is not rocket science to see that it is ,as many already realised a nigh on impossible task to unravel at anything like the speed leavers expect.. please get a reality check & let the Lady get on with finishing what has been started without criticising her handling of the negotiations. Seems some just love a scapegoat .
