I have a plan: leave! Is that not nuanced enough? What would happen if they just declared they were no longer in the EU?
If you are leaving
Please still say goodbye
And if you are leaving can you
Leave me my Silver Jubilee mug
My old flag
My dark woods
My sunrise

This is (most likely) a trade deal opportunity for Trump. I suspect the deal was to allow Britain to continue trading with the EU. I don’t know what cards are in play but I’m sure Trump will figure it out. Also, if Trump were to apply pressure to the EU in Britain’s favor it would probably ease things considerably. The relationship between the British and America is worth working on. Especially since the EU had more or less announced it is less pro-American than those individual countries were twenty years ago. (I am referring to the inclusion of America as a potential enemy while trying to talk up the EU military. Incidentally, buried in that EU military was a statement about enforcing EU policies on other EU countries. Presumably they mean immigration.)
The problem is all inside your head she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I’d like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave the EU
She said it’s really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won’t be lost or misconstrued
But I’ll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave the EU
Fifty ways to leave the EU
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don’t need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don’t need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
About the fifty ways
She said why don’t we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you’ll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave the EU

Maybe it's time for the U.K. To clean up this infestation once and for all time.
why does UK even pretend to continue to play the game?
The EU is a paper tiger at best Little more than a mafiosos with prestigious diplomas.
The Brits should just tell them to go pound sand -neither the Frogs nor the Krauts will be able to do anything about it-they both preoccupied with maintaining their own internal affairs.
It is that the treasonous Theresa May’s Brexit “deal” was thrown on the trash heap, but does this mean that Brexit is done for?

The leadership of the UK should have been preparing for a hard brexit from day one...
Reality is, Brussels has ZERO motivation to let UK go or negotiate in good faith, in fact its motivations are to make sure it makes an example of UK so that no other uppity nation states follow their lead, and punish it and make its exit as painful as possible.
The ONLY difference between the treaty of versailles and the EU Brexit negotiated split, is that the intent of Europe to punish the UK and not Germany, that’s it.
May, and all the others, are FOOLS to think that Brussels would ever do anything other than make their split as painful as possible, they have no motivation or intent to negotiate in good faith, and their desire is to make sure the UK split is as UGLY, COSTLY and PAINFUL as possible...
It is beyond fathomable that the nation that gave the world Churchill, is being now run by such fools..
All the smart Brits fled that country over 200 years ago.
Had we been living in Britain and I could have voted, I would have voted Leave. My husband’s younger cousins are Remainers as they enjoy the fact that they can move to another EU country and be able to work. IIRC, Britain joined the EU for trading purposes and nothing more. But ‘the EU’ has become a monstrosity with Brussels dictating whatever they want and the EU countries having to comply. I think the straw that broke the camel’s back was Brussels dictating to the EU countries the numbers of ‘migrants’ that each had to accept. That was a bridge too far for Britons who had lived through harder times than their children have. I look forward to Britain have sovereignty without interference from non-Britons. I sure hope it happens.
Government fighting the will of the people, only bad things can come out of that.
Just leave, Brits. The EU heads aren’t even able to make their own beds, let alone act in a tangible way to punish the UK. Plus there are more reliable trade partners out there than Brussels.
Out of some 34,105 laws in the UK statute books, some 4,514 have been influenced by the EU. That may sound bad, except that the UK has only objected or voted against 72 out of those 4,514 rules. And most of the rules are to do with safety, standards, regulatory alignment, environmental protection, worker protection, etc
