dumb Brexit question

7. While Denzil has pointed out the deal couldn't be negotiated before the referendum

and it certainly would have been better to have had a more realistic discussion before the referendum of what exits were possible or what their actual effects would be (rather than the tosh the Leave side claimed), what pisses me off about May is that she seems to have had no idea what huge parts of her party thought - either before she invoked Article 50, or while she was negotiating. She just assumed they'd go with whatever she came up with, and her stubbornness and robotic party loyalty at the same time meant she never tried to work with anyone outside the Tories and DUP either.

So she wasn't really 'leading' anyone apart from those on the government payroll. And she wasted 18 months out of Article 50's 24 before that became clear. She's a bad negotiator and reader of people.
