I know of no other example, other than #Brexit, of someone leaving a club & then demanding that the club changes its rules for existing members to provide free benefits to the leaving member. Worse still, to then claim that the club is bullying them by saying 'no'. #PeoplesVote
.@theresa_may, @BorisJohnson , @michaelgove , @Nigel_Farage, @LiamFox, @DominicRaab. How about getting the best deal/no deal possible & then putting it to the people to accept the it or remain in the EU? If it's as promised in 2016 we'll leave. Everyone's a winner. #PeoplesVote
So now we have heard from @theresa_may demanding that the EU (the club WE have chosen to leave), having said no to our proposals, must explain why & provide counter proposals which respect the UK's position. No, they're not showing disrespect. They simply don't like our proposal.
The EU do not need to offer counter proposals. Why should the EU change its rules to suit an outgoing member? Would we do this? Absolutely not! We would say if you are leaving, you're leaving and you can trade with us like other nations. Choose between Norway, Canada or WTO.
Why is the PM seeking to blame the EU - it's just another lie, and worse still it is throwing 'red meat' to a bunch of baying #Brexiters. It is nationalism gone mad and how the seeds of conflict are sown. The EU are not the enemy, she should not portray them as such. #PeoplesVote

I've told my local golf club that I don't want membership, but a deep & special partnership where I will permit them to provide golf course & social facilities to me & in return I have complete access to their facilities. Negotiations are going well, expect deal in place by Oct18
Part of my garden abuts the golf course. I have asked for a seamless border with no fence. In return for this the Golf Club will have free access to cut my lawn in return for me planting vegetables in the rough. I do have a red line that Golfers must not enter my garden though.
The Golf Club seem to be behaving unreasonably now. They are objecting to my proposal to offer reduced price access to the course via my garden. They will gradually come to understand that not only are my proposals reasonable, but that I hold all the cards in this deal.
