Dan Hannan says the bad decision to trigger Article 50 without a plan was not the fault of Leave campaign - Leave campaign promised process wouldn’t start without plan in place - says there wasn’t pressure from eurosceptics.

There certainly was pressure from eurosceptic press...

I remember live on Sky as the trigger decision was made, saying to Adam im not sure the MPs cheering this on realise that they have simply handed the stopwatch and so our main negotiating leverage straight to the EU

worth reflecting that both the judicial decision to underpin A50 trigger with statute “Enemies of the People” AND the meaningful vote process empowering Commons “Mutineers” - have worked out in ways that cd have helped Brexit backers, despite vicious attacks on those institutions
