Anyone who voted for Brexit should still have had the confidence that the government of the day would at least look at all the angles put a plan in place for each conceivable eventuality and would have worked with neighbouring countries to make sure 'the same as before' could have been achieved. Unfortunately the phrase any competent government could achieve Brexit, but no competent government would try to attempt it has unfortunately come to pass. Teresa May started the clock and busked it from there, and Johnson and his cabinet of spare parts have continued the wheeze.
Various tory governments have kicked the can down the road on providing clear policy for these kind of small but significant every day decisions and this is where we end up. Whenever these issues were brought up in Parliament, Parliamentary committees, civil servants, foreign bodies, foreign governments, broadcasters, columnists, industry experts it has consistently been met with a wave of indignation from those forcing this through.
Shall we sing a song for you?
