Well she's just stuck the boot in and blamed the EU. Seemed pretty much like a no deal brexit speech to me, telling people to get used to that idea and blaming the EU entirely for not negotiating. That's going to increase calls for a no-deal vs remain vote hugely. She's basically told the EU to sod off. SB Edit: Just seen Tusk's tweets. What a tool, unhelpful and unprofessional for someone in his position - very Trumpian. [Post edited 21 Sep 2018 14:14]

That's what I heard. Basically, it's my ball and I'm going home so ner. They are no further forward than eighteen months ago. A no deal is no good for the UK or the EU, I just can't see what will be given | |

I'm no fan but that was a strong speech. Had she performed as strongly as that during the election then she'd have got a majority. | |

This is a good line: "She says she has treated the EU “with nothing but respect” and says that she expects the same." and true | |

You honestly think so? She had a fair point that the EU need to move on points as well but it came across a lot like a tantrum and basically a statement that we are going to have a no deal brexit. There isn't really anywhere to go from that speech, the EU aren't going to move, she can't move now without looking foolish so it's no deal brexit - might as well do it now. SB | |

Yes. Regardless of whether one agrees with the content. It was stronger on tone than anything we've heard from her for a while. That also seems to be the general consensus

To me she came across like a primary school teacher reading the class a story. Really trying to enunciate each word. Not a criticism, just what it reminded me of. | |

Quite few tweets saying the exact opposite - The New Statesman for instance. I can see how it would play well to supporters, it's certainly uncompromising. What are your thoughts on the actual content? SB | |
