The British Government has not been able to work out the negotiating strategy for Brexit with the European Union because those who campaigned for Brexit won the referendum based on lies, misinformation, fear and scare mongering. They campaigned without working out any plan for the government to implement post Brexit.
What happened to the £350 million a week earmarked for funding NHS, they are not talking about it now. They were not sincere about it. They said we will get back our sovereignty, which was never lost but was shared with 27 other European Nations, who also shared they sovereignty with us like we did with them.
Immigration is perhaps the most sensitive and divisive issues when it comes to EU membership. Freedom of movement is a pillar of the EU and the region's citizens have the right to move and reside freely in other member states. Brexit said they will control immigration, they have not shown how they would do it and what would be their annual intake of the immigrants. The matter is still in air.
They have taken the British people for a ride, because of the ordinary people are paying the price of high inflation, unemployment, fall in investment, financial insecurity the pound has fallen to its lowest level.
With no post Brexit plan evident, and political parties divided within themselves, Parliamentarians must re-exert their authority. They were elected to think and act, not to be told what to do.
