First result off google.
Doesn't everyone now use the terms 'hard' and 'soft' now?

I think they do mate to be honest as its become almost official language but i just dont get it.

EU rules state you are either in or out with no middle ground to be found so given the vote to leave, we are out, end of with no soft or hard anywhere to be seen.

Like I said its been invented to muddy and cloud the waters and to be used as a stick to beat people with.

To be honest, the waters are about as clear as veg soup for me on the whole affair. I'm going to the pub..

Well done - very sensible.

The EU will most likely not shift their position until they actually believe that not only could the UK walk away if pushed too far by the EU's intransigence

That option only becomes viable if the government's negotiating team and departments have undertaken the preparation necessary - it is not just a question of walking out of a meeting after throwing a hissy-fit.

Thank god for that then, exactly what we voted for in the first place.

Have not bothered listening to the tweet but I was thinking this morning how very worrying the latest development are if you are of the Remain and Labour persuasion

Not only are the polls showing a shift in sentiment but May seems to be doing what a few of us have been suggesting - moving towards the centre as Labour move further Left.

Essentially she is stealing Labour's clothes - or ripping off their more popular policies - pretty smart (if frustrating) you must surely admit?

You've got to stop fixating on me, it's unhealthy.

She is a career politician who will adopt any stance to secure/keep power.

Her views on the EU are a good example. If the public veered back the other way she would veer right along with them.

Strong & stable - yeah right !
