Vince said that it was no wonder the Brexiteers were terrified of giving the people a say on the deal:
Both the Conservatives and Labour have now essentially converged on the same position, which is to kick the can down the road and simply delay the economic pain caused by an extreme Brexit.
Neither are prepared to fight to keep Britain in the single market and customs union or to offer people a chance to exit from Brexit
Voters were promised £350m a week for the NHS, instead Theresa May is admitting the UK will have to pay a hefty Brexit bill worth billions of pounds.
No wonder the Brexiteers are terrified of giving the British people the final say through a referendum on the facts.
Willie Rennie said the “delinquent’ May was trashing our relationship with Europe.
Theresa May is kicking the can down the road. Sixteen months on from the Brexit referendum this delinquent Prime Minister is trashing our relationship with Europe.
She seems incapable of deciding what kind of relationship she wants with Europe and that prolonged uncertainty is causing economic damage.
We were promised Brexit would be an easy negotiation and that £350 million each week would be invested in the NHS. Neither are true.
This makes the compelling case for a Brexit deal referendum even stronger.
Yesterday, the Lib Dems laid out seven tests for Theresa May’s speech. Tom Brake said that only one of them was even slightly met.
