The most remarkable with Brexit, is the way British conservative politicians regard their European counterparts. They really believed, Britain would enjoy "a better deal" with EU as an outsider, than in the Union.
Theresa May's government sold a free trade deal to Nissan, long before negotiations with the EU even had begun. And her present Foreign Secretary, promised 350 millions a week to the NHS in the run up to the Brexit referendum.
Everything the brexiters promised the electorate, has turned out not to be true.
Prime Minister Theresa May have promised her voters to deliver a "red, white and blue Brexit". It seems, she was expecting the EU negotiators to give in to Britain's demands.
The first year after the referendum have been the story of the poor Prime Minister May, being squeezed between her own rabid brexiters in government, and an increasingly unwilling EU.
Her ordeals might be described as a Greek tragedy. Her conduct of things, shows similarities to the sorcerer's apprentice. And EU has obviously decided to perform Brexit as a "Lehrstück" (a performance you should learn something from), in the spirit of Berhold Brecht.
None of the brexiters could imagine the complexity of Brexit. They weren't even aware, air traffic to and from the British Isles might stop on Brexit day, if EU doesn't show mercy.
EU will utilize Brexit as a brain drain on Britain. While Britain closes its borders, EU countries welcome British businesses and jobs.
But it seems, Brexit might be only a side show in a grand conservative plan to transform Britain. The conservative wish list comprises no universal human rights, no protection on the workplace, abandoning environmental regulations, and a closer relationship with USA.
Some Brits are talking about a coup in slow motion. They may be right. Brexit is an irreversible decision, taken by the Tory Government and blamed on the electorate.
However, it's clear that Britain is in a constitutional crises. At least half of the population are against Brexit, but the political class want Brexit. One of the consequences of Brexit ought to be that UK abandons its antiquated political system, to find a solution better reflecting the opinion of the voters.
UK should also consider creating a constitution like the German, created to prevent coups.
