And the way things are going it's looking like Britain will be brexiting in name only.

  That's the least worst option, but I'm still hoping that someone will join the dots and realise that giving up our vote and participation is a pointless idea and that we should just cancel it.

  We can only hope. The alternatives are too dismal to contemplate.

    And if you do contemplate them, you'll be accused of participating in project fear.

      Project fear didn't go far enough.

  You think so? AFAICT there isn't even such a proposal being negotiated, and it had better be ready for signing this year. BINO looks like it might fail through simple lack of time.

    It will all be decided only at the last moment as is the custom for this sort of thing! (I hope)

      .. but in the meantime businesses have to have their contingency plans in place, at considerable trouble and expense, which may include pre-emptively moving operations to the EU. (But either all the current disorganisation is keyfabe or this lot couldn't plan their way out of a paper bag, which is going to result in us taking whatever we can get)

  Well, from the point of view of UK's economy that would be the best solution but for the EU that could be bad in the long run. One good thing about the Brexit would have been that UK politicians could no longer blame the EU for everything. As it looks now, they will continue to find new, creative ways to make the EU the scapegoat for their mistakes.
