Illuminating mistake by @ChristianFraser. He suggests, if the EU refuse to renegotiate deal, they’ll show they’re “not an honest broker”. But they’re not “brokers”. They represent the remaining EU27. They’re not there to deliver unicorns just because the UK reeeeally wants them.
That’s been part of the problem all along. The view of the EU as “the adult in the room” who has to give the UK whatever it wants every time it threatens, like a toddler, to hold its breath. They’re not. They’re the opponent. We chose to make them the opponent. @ChristianFraser
It is time to stop treating the EU as the designated driver of our drunken night out and sober up.
