The EU are flexing their muscles and showing Great Britain just how difficult the process is going to be, they have already scuppered talks starting and I think this is just the beginning of what is in store for May et al
You have to remember that the EU doesn't really have the upper hand.They need a good deal with us.We are the EU's largest single export market.EU leaders are under huge pressure from businesses and the electorates of the individual countries to get a good deal with us.All the bluster beforehand will take a backseat i think when it comes down to negotiations.The last thing the EU needs is us to say 'no deal' and walk out.
