Germany are the country most politically and economically committed to the EU.
As regards the economics, the Euro is a massive benefit to Germany who are a hugely successful exporting nation.If it were not for the single currency they would have a strong and overpriced Deutschmark which would severely reduce the competitiveness of their exports.
Hence it is Germany's interests first and foremost to have a strong EU and anything that jeopardizes the existence of the bloc ( for instance by giving an existing member a good economic deal to leave) represents a major risk to the German economy.
Sure there will be some lobbying by German industry but they know which side their bread is buttered on.

Can any Brexiter critique this? I really would like to know why this is typical remoaner nonsense.

Of course they can't, because it's simple and factual and patently true.

Every day I read similar opinions to his, from economists and business leaders and political advisors. Maybe I am suffering from confirmation bias, but I haven't seen one which didn't make me feel sick to the stomach about the mess we are in.

I can see his point, he was annoyed at cafes in Berlin using English instead of German. It wasn't so much annoyance at English specifically, more so them not speaking the national language in the capital.
 
Hello Campers.
The new Hammond /Fox EU accord is beginning to unravel.
Apparently in any transition period the UK are not prepared to accept temporary membership of the customs union but will propose membership of a temporary customs union (details of which are to be submitted by the UK - Sky News).
You could make it up Jeff, but I'm not.
