Wow. I'm probably the last to know but ...

... it looks like a hung Parliament. What that will mean for the Brexit
negotiations, hmmm, not very good. Getting rid of May's "strongman"
program of having and eating in 12 points is a relief for the EU side.
OTOH, a partner with a flimsy mandate means the negotiations could well
drag on beyond 2 years with umpteen elections in between.
Lord, what a nightmare. Just get Iceberg out of the EU! ;) ;) ;)

Only when all EU members agree on longer negotiations.
But there's always hard brexit.

That was a bit naive to begin with.
