EU referendum, brexit and the aftermath

The prime minister had read from her op-ed that morning in the German newspaper Die Welt in which she warned that the EU would have to change course. And she had repeated a mantra on Chequers that is an anathema to the EU: take it or leave it. Over the following 24 hours, after further missteps, including further prevarication over the crucial, knotty issue of the Irish border, the answer from the bloc could not have been clearer. They were not taking it.

I think that means the EU are a load of leavers?
