redjambo Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 4 minutes ago, Cade said: The time for compromise was three years ago when we should have called a cross party national convention on brexit to figure out what we wanted before even triggering Article 50. Instead the Tories decided to do it all themselves and look where we are now. This. We could have gone about the whole thing in a cool, measured, pragmatic, inclusive way, especially given the narrow result of the referendum. Not the British way though, it seems!

However there are those in the opposition who voted against it. Labour are still committed to delivering Brexit. You do have a point. Instead of delivering a fair, reasonable Brexit uniting the country everyone has played politics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The management of this has been diabolical, but then there is such a wide variety of opinions on how or whether Brexit should take place that it was almost an impossible task from the beginning. Given the close result of the referendum, we should have subsequently looked more closely at what people actually wanted regarding our future relationship with the EU and tried to build a proper middle-ground consensus, i.e. leaving the EU but with a future relationship with the EU that seemed reasonable and practical to most people concerned.
