It would seem that many of those who support Brexit have
substituted their empathy and common sense for so-called 'patriotism'. While originally sounding open to a Norwegian
or Swiss style deal, we are suddenly against it. We treat EU citizens rights post-Brexit cynically
as a bargaining chip. Only when talks
are at a deadlock do we give some thought about our future relations with the
EU. At the same time we threaten just to walk out of talks, giving mixed
signals about how important we see them.
Negotiations are built on trust, and this record shows that there is
little reason for the EU to trust us.
