@gbjanuary I doubt if many will bother to down load and read the exit document. It is very hard going because of the legalese and the cross references toother documents. This leaves the general public open to fake news manipulation. In the case of the BBC it will just be very selective about which parts of the document they report and how they interprete it.
The idea of a television debate with Jeremy Corbyn is clear!y a publicity stunt. Both are supporters of closer union with the EU. It would be better if she debated with an articulate brexiteer politician. It is ironic that Corbyn, who is Eurosceptic is leading a europhile party, while she, a europhile and remainer, is leading a Eurosceptic party. I suspect she will call in a number of back bench MPs, get them to sign the official secrets act, and then tell them the blackmail that the EU is really using to force her to back this treasonous deal. The MPs will emerge from these one on one meetings as reluctant converts to the exit deal.
One can only imagine what the blackmail might be, maybe a blockade of UK ports by the EU. An orchestrated attack on the pound.
If the UK people were told the real threat, I think they would be incensed.
On Thursday the ECJ rules on if the UK can unilaterally withdraw the article 50 application. It will be interesting to see which way this goes. It maybe this dreadful deal is intended to frighten the UK into voting to remain in a second referendum.
I think this is unlikely, as the French have a considerable vested interested interest in the UK leaving. The current exit deal puts the UK in an extremely weak position, which is just where the French and Germans want us.
The UK returning to EU membership is not attractive to the EU, because it will bring 17.5 million people into the EU who hate it and are bent on its destruction. My guess the court will rule that the brexit process has gone too far and will require all the 28 to vote in favour of reversing article 50 and this will come with a punishment attached. Most likely the inability to trigger article 50 again.
The EU will certainly be trying to close the article 50 exit door and increase majority voting to stop the UK throwing a spanner into the EU super state ambitions.
