Juncker is an utter prick - leaking details of the dinner at No.10.
Then there's Barnier, Hollande and other EU officials warning us how ugly it's going to get.

Poland and France wanting to extract every last billion out of us!

They're playing into May's hands - giving her the opportunity to look like the Boudicca of the 21st century when she is actually an utterly useless PM.

I wish they'd show some consideration for the 48%

I'm a Remainer - still want to stay in EU - but it's starting to piss me off so there's little chance the leavers who were starting to wobble will want to stay now.

The Daily Mail are relishing it Angry

Why? Britain isn't taking that view. We aren't seeking the best deal for both parties. We want the best dea for Britain. We are not going in saying 'it's ok, we're willing to get a less good deal for us if it makes things easier for the EU.'

britain is taking that view. We will negotiate in good faith because we have no other choice. We are not going to try and weaken the EU to send it a message. We simply can't. But I entirely expect the EU to send a message to other countries in its membership.

They would plan very carefully in advance

I am not sure what planning people expected. The EU said it would not begin negotiations until article 50 is invoked. So, no matter what we decided beforehand, we'd still be at the mercy of the EU. What exactly were people expecting? One half of the participants said they weren't going to preplan.
