I'm sorry for Mrs. May in many ways - she is conscientious, hard-working and doing her best............ but she is in no way whatsoever the right person for the job. (her initials are, coincidentally, the reverse of Mrs. M. Thatcher). I feel that the pressure is now such that we need a 'bust up' to rattle Barnier & co.. I would love Rees-Mogg to be in charge, but, realistically, he has no Cabinet experience. He should, however, be in some form of power. Possibly (I stress the 'possibly' bit) Boris, short-term i/c, but R-M needs to be up there in a pro-Brexit Cabinet. He's doing a terrific job from the sidelines, but we are running out of time.
The terms issued by the EU for our leaving are totally unacceptable. As R-M says, they are a starting position and if they want our £39 billion the terms will have to change drastically. I do not think May has the gumption to stand up to them. No deal is a much better option - and I've always felt that we will end up with no deal and so had better prepare for that. Mrs. M's sweetness and gullibility have empowered the beaurocrats. She is now a liability.
