Same arrogant contempt BoJo showed when he could have ended the Syria conflict in 2014 but instead thought he was a matter of weeks away from a glorious victory, then saw the Russian army drive slowly over the horizon and park themselves firmly in Damascus.
They always always think history has a special mention just waiting for them, and instead there's only hubris.

Corbyn is no better though on expecting this to go well if only Labour handled negotiations, the cakeism is strong in many politicians.
But please and thank you is still better for a country's reputation/negotiating mood than demanding and trying to go behind the EU team's back...we complain about our jobs, imagine how Barnier feels ;)

May refused a sign off on rights in 2016, against the advice of oh, everyone. Because she doesn't want the EJC to mediate, but really, the UK has been SO trustworthy...
Only way out I can see is ringfencing with independent court to mediate, I am not sure why this hasn't happened. Other priorities perhaps, as a no deal would cancel all rights, but still this has been a mess for 2 years and it's not even the hardest thing to sort.
But yeah, I doubt a lot of voters would have expect this to happen because a lot of official leave said nothing would change for immigrants in the EU that are already there. I still don't think it is quite an excuse 2 years down the line, though any leave voter that complains to their MP / donates to rights groups can be excused for their ignorance 2 years ago I suppose.
All this is basically "we lost the house, be glad you aren't homeless but can live in the shed" which was utterly predictable two years ago.
But a lot of people don't give a flying fuck.
