They had a somewhat privileged EU position pre-Brexit. If rejoin happens, Brussels probably won't offer what Britain what they had before. Still better than going it alone in a global economy, but that's the price of fucking up.

Oh definitely. Don't get me wrong - I voted remain but fully appreciated that there were some shortcomings to the relationship we had but we had a much better deal than most other members.

I'm going to reword the below because it looks like my memory isn't as great as I thought!

There were some ongoing meetings to discuss current concerns. Looks like we actually got a lot of what we wanted but not everything. I think they tried to call our bluff on the other items and hoping the concessions we got were enough. I don't think the were expecting us to go ahead with leaving the EU but the Tories put party unity over what was best for the country and here we are.

Edit: Here you go. We did agree a deal but it wasn't everything we wanted but I feel had it been given more air time it would have convinced enough leavers that staying would be the better option.
