Three years after Britain voted to leave the European Union, the political debate over Brexit seems as intense and as complicated as ever. Who and what can we trust? And how on earth do we make sense of it all?
Ivan Rogers, the UK’s former ambassador to the EU, is uniquely placed to tell some home truths about the failure of the British political class and the flaws, dishonesty and confusion inherent in the UK’s approach to Brexit so far.
In this short, elegant essay, Rogers draws up nine lessons that we, as a soon-to-be ‘third country’, need to learn from the last few years, if the next few years – indeed the next decade – are not to be even more painful.

Ivan Rogers irrefutably makes clear what an oxymoronic fantasy a managed `no deal' is
Cuts through the guff spoken by government, ERG, Labour and pretty much everyone else.
A timely reminder of why Ivan Rogers was not tolerated in government and why he probably should have been: clever, insightful, waspish, mordant, learned.
Sir Ivan Rogers on blistering form, setting out the unpalatable truths of Brexit that effectively got him sacked as our man in Brussels.
In terms of knowledge and experience of the EU, Sir Ivan Rogers is second to none.
"At last someone is talking sense on our post-Brexit trade nightmare".
