Brexit bungle

Brexit Bungle? How is Bexit working? It is almost a secret.Few are bothering to assess it but no-one, even some of the pro brigade, are enthusiastic. They are worried as the latest survey suggests all is not well. The confident claims that it would set the UK on the road to greater responsibility has been dented. We may be gaining a degree more independence but it is counterbalanced on the negative side. Claims of important new trade agreementsa around the world including Australia and New Zealand have so far proved less successful. There have been some - a very welcome one just announced between the EU and Northern Island over border trade but most have been less than before with a soecial problem with the USA. Some of the most enthusiastic pro supporters are becoming dissolutioned. One of the holes in the bucket is the loss of trade with Europe which should have been the fallback but there seems little movement there. And no party is suggesting we might try to rejoin the EU.
