In retrospect, the biggest mistake of Brexit was that Parliament should have amended the vote to trigger Article 50 so that the default became "revoke" if no deal was struck within the timeframe allowed. That would have *forced* MPs to sit down and genuinely compromise.
It would also have saved over £6 billion that has been poured onto the bonfire of no deal Brexit. And it might have kept some of the companies who've left the UK from leaving, because they would have known the super-damaging cliff edge of no deal was impossible.
I believe it would also have made negotiating with the EU easier because we would have appeared rational. At the moment, they're facing a delusional country quite incapable of logic. Our ridiculous attitude may keep them guessing but it's not condusive to international diplomacy.
