Isn’t it odd.
Our European partners respect the result of the referendum. Our choice they say. They may not think we have voted the right
way but “that’s your funeral”.
Indeed, as we now know, not only do they respect the result, they are ready to implement it. We are being told time and time again by Michel Barnier, Donald Tusk, Jean-Claude Juncker and Guy Verhofstadt that the EU, as an institution, is ready for the UK to leave without a Withdrawal Agreement.
And individual countries of the EU respect the vote too. Interestingly The Guardian reports that France, Spain and Belgium are “ready for no-deal Brexit next week”.
It seems the only people who don’t respect the outcome of the biggest plebiscite this nation has ever seen are those who lost it. Well, that’s not quite true. Not all Remainers are so disrespectful of those who voted Leave. It is just a small militant cabal.
So the EU respects our vote. Nations of the EU respect our vote. Most Remainers respect our vote.
Today’s big question for Mrs May and Mr Hammond is, if the EU are well prepeared for us to leave without a Withdrawal Agreement and so are the individual nations of the EU, are we? I assume we are even though the government won’t admit it so that we are kept in fear.
But if we are not ready, after nearly three years, and every other EU institution and nation is, what have Mrs May and Hammond been doing all that time? If nothing, that’s criminal.
