hard brexit

Shorn of her majority, Theresa May has no mandate to pursue a hard Brexit. A course correction is urgently needed.

PM thinks she can avoid economy falling off cliff by wrapping up ambitious new EU deal in two years. This is unrealistic.

Misguided belief that UK can determine Brexit outcome alone, lack of focus on developments in US, Europe are two major risks  

It is Theresa May’s job to spell out what she means by Brexit. Pro-Europeans should resist the temptation to do her dirty work for her.

There probably isn’t a majority in parliament or public for one. Snag is any alternative Brexit would cause further Tory divisions.

The louder Brexit rhetoric grows at home, the more united European partners become in resisting concessions to Britain.

The people didn’t vote for what Theresa May is trying to do. With splits emerging in cabinet and Tory party, there’s a chance to stop it.

PM isn’t just heading for hard Brexit; she has made clear that the government - rather than MPs or voters - will decide what happens now.

Sterling slipped, services confidence sagged, and companies considered moving operations elsewhere in a tough week for the economy.

As battle lines are drawn over the UK’s future, a soft-hard Brexit division has arisen. What does this distinction mean?

Not only is Corbyn a weak leader of the opposition. Both he and Labour moderates are pushing for things incompatible with soft Brexit.

Would EU give us full single market access without free movement? Would we accept being a second-class state, following rules with no vote?
