    I think we should have just renegotiated stuff with the EU on the threat of leaving rather than playing our entire hand

      I agree. There were definitely a few things with the EU that weren’t working well. The one that stirred up a lot of emotion here was the matter of fishing, because there was a lot of very real tension between local fishermen and the fishing boats from France and Spain. But leaving the EU wasn’t the right answer to these problems. Having an adult conversation to find a way of improving things was the right way.
