The opposition to Brexit are equally complicit in that had they cooperated effectively they may have stopped Brexit - but politics got in the way.
It has all the hallmarks of a Cummings initiative - he is a happy mould breaker and no doubt regards this as nothing more than lobbing a grenade into the negotiating process to see what happens.
