Theresa May treats Brexit like an act of God, something to be endured or overcome. The people voted so we must do their bidding. But it's not like that at all. Politicians are there to act in the best interests of the population, not to enact every idea, no matter how wacky.

Three years ago, we had no idea just how unachievable a good Brexit would be. (Not because of who's negotiating, but because of the nature of our existing relationship with the EU, and everything it gives the UK.)

But now we know. It's clear as daylight that no form of Brexit - and certainly not Theresa May's frankendeal - will leave us better off. Indeed, the opposite is true. We will be poorer, more isolated, less safe.
