Remember that post I made above about what happens when one negotiating partner is much bigger than the other, when the smaller partner starts with a bad hand, and there is a deadline to meet? The German finance minister has already described this scenario, ahead of any talks on trade, which won't begin until we invoke article 50.

The Leavers have screwed our economy good and proper.
Still ignoring the important bit, I see?
