I agree to an extent but that has largely been the case since late 2019. There's a case to be made that Covid complicated matters not long after that, and that "everything else being kicked into the long grass" for most of 2020, then hitting mid 2021 and realising "wups we forgot to do anything else" is also a huge part of the problem, but at the end of the day, the buck stops with the same people anyway. There was a clear failure to adequately prep, no matter what else was going on. I honestly don't understand why both Remainers
and Brexit supporters wouldn't be united in being annoyed about that. Other than the tribalism (i.e. "any acceptance of fair criticism = ceding ground to the enemy") that goes on in every topic.
