Every issue Tory Brexiteers said they would stand firm on is now being given up. The result will be electoral punishment
What on
earth has happened to the Eurosceptics in Theresa May’s cabinet? In what can
only be called the ultimate sell-out, these once-brave men and women who backed
the Leave campaign and have been seen as the champions of the 17.4m people who
voted for Brexit have collapsed like a row of dominoes.
Over the course of the last few months we have seen these senior
politicians shift their position significantly on virtually every important
issue. For example, once they balked at the idea of a transition deal. Yet now,
they seem happy to accept that we should be locked into such an arrangement for at least two
years and probably (I am
willing to bet) up until the next general election, which is scheduled for
2022.
