Leaver priorities: no more payments to EU, no more ECJ, end free movement, own free trade deals.

Remainers: letting EU citizens stay, common rules so UK firms can do business in Europe, workers’ rights.

So we have just passed halfway - 505 days since the referendum, 504 days until Brexit.

The government seems to have everything nicely under control; everything on track with the exit negotiations and plans in place for what will happen to us afterwards.

I don't know what everyone was worried about.
