'Move along nothing to see here' seems to be the PM's strategy.

Responding to Theresa Mays first public pronouncement in
2017 on how she plans to approach negotiations with our European colleagues Paul
Nuttall, the UKIP leader said,
"The
Prime Minister has just thrown up a great opportunity to clarify her position on
Brexit. Despite being asked a simple and clear question on at least three
occasions she declined to answer. Will she prioritise taking back control of our
borders over membership of the European Single Market? Her answers were vague,
muddy and ultimately opaque. 'Move along nothing to see here' seems to be the
PMs strategy
"She
gave herself more wriggle room than a snake in a barrel. It is just not good
enough. It is clear what the people of the UK voted for in June, and it is clear
that she will do anything she can to delay and prevaricate on this simple
instruction from the electorate. There is no purpose in delay, no purpose in
leaving the air thick with claim and counter claim. This merely leaves Britain's
people and businesses with nothing to work with and little to base their
planning on. It is not good enough. Enough already. She needs to make it clear
that if we do not get what we want, decent trading relations with our
continental friends and a clear decision to return full control of immigration
to Westminster, then she should simply repeal the European Communities Act.
"She
tried to blame the Cameron regime for its lack of planning post the referendum.
She seems to have forgotten that at the time she was Home Secretary, one of the
great offices of state. If she is blaming the previous management, she cannot
avoid the simple fact she was on the board at the
time".
