We were part of the EU when they were established, so they are just as much ours. I don’t think anyone is claiming a copyright on those deals. I also think it’s the sensible thing to do for the UK to roll-over those existing deals first and then negotiate something more tailored later (as long as they can easily be rolled over and re-negotiated later). It’s just a bit amusing when Brexiteers celebrate these deals as huge successes when they’re merely an operational workaround and an admission of the fact that the EU actually provided some good benefits and did a lot of things right. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have the other side colluding with you against their own people, it's a bit easier. Since May was thrown out, he got nothing. If you bothered to look at the two WA's rather than swallow propaganda you would know that there is effectively only one difference between May's and Johnson's. The Northern Ireland Protocol; that's it. So if May's WA was BRINO, then Johnson's is as well! When the EU first suggested a customs border between GB and NI May said that no UK Prime Minister could ever agree to dividing the UK in such a manner. Johnson proved her wrong. As we all know, Johnson has since shown his bad faith by his desire to renege on that part of his WA.

Well I'm shocked, something you don't know, that is staring everybody in the face on a daily basis. The disproven rumours that come straight from the horses mouth - Michel Barnier, in frequent news reports, DEMANDING a "LEVEL PLAYING FIELD", got it now, or do you still wish to pull the wool over your eyes, because it won't wash with anyone else. I'm sorry if I'm not as techy clever as you, and am not familiar with the process of attaching news reports, but there it is. The facts are not hidden, but clear for everyone to see, without the need for substantiating quotes - oh sorry you don't have any, you just keep trying to turn it back on me. The bill that was made necessary by the EU's nasty devious and vindictive tactics to intervene in the UK's trade between UK & NI, and still are, by the news I've seen only 2 days ago they were again threatening a blockade of UK products to NI. NI is a part of the UK, not the EU. Did you fail to read the date on that new law ""2020"", and the statement that the UK take back control after 40 years. Come on, get real.... Did you think I cannot or will not read the link, hoping I will just cave under your spurious facts... Again, I did not say we had """SOLD OUT""". please, by all means highlight that statement again, if you wish to prove your point, but this time be a bit less disingenuous and show exactly where I used those words. Oh, sorry you can't..... ???? At the end of the day, if you're so enamoured with the EU - you know what to do..... Tofer, as you are merely repeating your assumptions and false accusations without actually providing any evidence at all to back them up, I see no reason for me to take up even more bandwidth and further bore everyone else by yet again providing the evidence which proves you wrong and asking you the same questions you have again refused to answer. No doubt in your mind you will see that as some form of false victory. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wont go into the oft repeated Brexiteer contradiction of Remainer May being thwarted by a Remainer Parliament again because I know that will only confuse you. Having won his coup against May and then failed in his attempts to avoid Parliamentary scrutiny of his proposed WA by illegal prorogation, Johnson called a General Election with the promise to 'get Brexit done' with his 'oven ready deal.' He called it HIS oven ready deal, not May's with a few tweaks; HIS. Although as most of us knew, and you now seem to have conceded, in reality it's May's with a few tweaks. If Johnson hates his own WA so much, why did he sign it with such jubilation and self aggrandisement? May did her best and we would have left the EU over a year ago under essentially the same terms as now, except for the customs border down the Irish Sea, but for Johnson's political machinations. It is he and the ERG, not to mention Rees-Mogg, who should hang their heads in shame. Especially as Johnson now wants to renege on an international treaty he signed and announced as a personal triumph less than a year ago!

The Remainer defence at the time was "But Parliament is sovereign" as if that legitimized them screwing over their own electorate. If he was totally honest he'd have said "This May deal is still terrible, but it's the only way we can get out so let's suck it up and just get out". However, May is still a Tory and Johnson is still a politician so he tried to dress it up. We all knew it was a terrible deal for the UK.

May did her best to keep us as closely aligned to the EU as possible. A fake Brexit. BRINO. She was kicked to the curb where she belongs. History will not be kind to her. The EU have already reneged on the treaty by failing to negotiate in good faith. As far as I'm concerned it's null and void and should be ripped up. At the very least we should withhold all future payments until a mutually beneficial FTA that respects UK sovereignty is agreed. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any source for this? Or is it just a guess? Because as far as I know, there are no figures available on the financial cost or financial gains of Brexit, since we haven't even left the withdrawal period yet. How can anyone know the cost of something that hasn't happened yet (yes I know we have officially left but the process of leaving, changing processes, signing all of the new trade deals etc. is not yet complete). A true assessment of the costs or gains could be made in around 10 years from now. Right now we are investing in ourselves, and the benefits will be seen later down the line. It's like setting up a shop, spending all that money on stock, training, decorating, licencing etc. and then at the end of the first day's trading you declare the project a failure because you have spent a million Baht and only sold 50,000 Baht worth of goods.
