European Council President Donald Tusk has blasted British politicians who lobbied for the U.K. to exit the European Union (EU) without first working out how to do it.

Tusk stated: “I have been wondering what a special place in hell looks like for those who promoted Brexit without even a sketch of plan how to carry it safely.”

Tusk also gave no indication that the other 27 EU countries will be up for reopening the Brexit withdrawal agreement that the UK's Prime Minister Theresa May negotiated but which was overwhelmingly rejected by British parliamentarians. 

Speaking alongside Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar, Tusk said: “the EU 27 is not making any new offer” to the British government to help pass their Brexit divorce deal in the UK parliament.
