    The EU is on the verge of the abyss. Here's why Theresa May has a winning hand and must go all in



    The Prime Minister should exploit the current turmoil in the EU to get the best deal for Britain in the upcoming Brexit negotiations, Telegraph columnist Allister Heath argues.

    In a new video 'Article 50: Theresa May's Winning Hand', Heath shows just how powerful her negotiating position could actually be.

    He contends that the rise of populism on the continent, the strength of Britain's economy and Europe's fear of terrorism all make a good deal for the UK more likely.

    And he urges Mrs May as she triggers Article 50 to recognise that she could have the upper hand and go 'all in' when the chance to strike arises.

    "The EU is on the verge of the abyss," he says. "We need to leave quickly. But it is clear that Theresa May has a winning hand."

        The solution is to invite the UK to join the EU again.

          Maybe if they'd left it at that, we wouldn't be off?

            The solution would have been to recognise the disquiet amongst, not just the UK, but the wider European population and give Cameron some meaningful concessions that he could have presented to the population.

              He conveniently forgot to mention that the only imminent break up on the cards is the UK. Scotland is going to leave the UK and take the oil fields with them.

              I'm alright Jack

                  The UK already had more concessions than any other EU country, cake, eat it...
                  Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
