Popular Post nauseus Posted August 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, 7by7 said: Johnson and the rest of Vote.Leave made promises during the referendum campaign about how the EU would roll over and give us everything we asked for. The old "they need us more than we need them" pony which I see you are still peddling! May's deal would have delivered on most of those promises. Johnson and his pals put personal ambition ahead of country and made sure that deal was scuppered. Johnson is now PM and is desperate for the EU to accept his deal, which is basically the same as May's; apart from selling out the people of Northern Ireland. Unsurprisingly, the EU are basically saying "You could have that deal, but turned it down. Up to you to present something new on which we can try and reach an agreement." Yet again twisting and now also confused. I'm not peddling anything. May's 'deal' is not the 'deal' being discussed now, it was the WA, which remains largely intact as was, even after Boris's tweaks. It was and is a disaster and should have never been signed off. As there seems to be no agreement on a trade deal then it seems it was all pretty much a waste of time anyway. The EU continue to want to lay down the rules and sequencing in all negotiations even when there is no basis for them being able to do that; this was the same as the WA and PD talks and Barnier thinks that it's OK just to carry on and keep dictating. The EU cannot get over the fact that the UK has actually left the club and wants to be treated like any 3rd country w.r.t a future trading relationship. The EU have never treated any other country as badly and with less respect than they are treating the UK now. You may have noticed that Merkel and Macron are increasingly assuming spokespersonship for the EU. This will probably happen more and more now and could actually result in some positive results, for a change.

And you accuse me of twisting other's words! The rest of your post is mere repetition of your usual mantras. Repeated so often that one wonders who it is you are really trying to convince; could it be yourself? You tried to twist my words, again as you do everybody's, to imply that I thought there would be no rules. The point was that we don't accept the current EU Single Market 'and everything that comes with it' rules. Have another mantra: No Deal is better than a bad Deal. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always amuses me when Brexiteers call May's deal 'BRINO' because Johnson's preferred deal is, apart from selling out Northern Ireland, virtually identical in all significant details! Thank god for JRM and the ERG. Are you still amused when Barnier bleats that he won't reopen the agreement for Frost? I am because that's what he must do to make a deal, or we Leave with No Deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Johnson is resisting tax rises to restore public finances as it is claimed the Treasury is piling pressure on Chancellor Rishi Sunak to claw back some of the billions spent propping up the economy and funding manifesto pledges as he prepares for the Autumn statement. Some Tories believe that spending cuts alone will not be sufficient to plug the hole and that tax rises will be needed in the medium term, while others disagree and are pushing instead for tax cuts to help revive the economy. As figures on Friday showed the UK heading for a £350 billion deficit from the pandemic rescue package, Mr Sunak warned that the Government faced “difficult decisions”.
