As was suspected, a sell out and no Brexit.

Well done. We will be a broken country in no time because she has given the EU exactly what they wanted. Free trade and alignment. But got chuff all back in financial services.

Woohoo the remainers have ruined the country. Bet their glad now.

[Zacs-Master]

How on earth do you make out the remainers have ruined the country? We’re only in this situation because the majority voted to leave.

Cassa, your ‘logic’ defies explanation at times.

[Zacs-Master]

I see there’s the usual moans of ‘oh crikey, we didn’t expect that’ from the leave camp. Again.

How many times.......
What did you expect from a ProEU Govt?

[dannyk13]

A bit premature to start complaining as this has still to be passed by parliament and accepted by the EU (odds on they won't as they will deem it cherry-picking)

[Zacs-Master]

Not sure that’s correct danny. I can’t find any report which says Parliament has to approve this.

// for all advocates of a borderless world governed by a disinterested elite //

well clearly the EU ISN'T borderless, and the EU isnt disinterested - barnieer is negotiating for the EU and not any country's interests

other than that -( or other than those two howling non-sequiturs) nothing wrong with the analysis....

[dannyk13]

The Tory MP's will have their say plus a Tory Brexiteer on last night's news said he was sure that the EU would not accept the deal.

ZM dont be a .....
this is normal for AB

[Zacs-Master]

That’s not ‘parliament’ tho, danny.

[Kromovaracun]

Danny's right - the hardline backbenchers have yet to react over this, and there's a pretty high chance the EU will reject it. So the saga is far from over yet -_-

[dannyk13]

ZM, sorry I should not have used the word 'parliament'

[Kromovaracun]

And then of course there's the DUP who are doubtless pretty unhappy.

If May does manage to get them, the backbenchers, and the EU in addition to her cabinet behind this... well, then she has more political skill than I thought.

[Zacs-Master]

No probs. You are right I your EU approval comment of course and as Kromo says, it’s not yet a done deal by a long chalk.

[youngmafbog]

ZM, people who voted leave never had any doubt of the trials and tribulations from the EU, I dont know anyone who thought any 'deal' was going to be done. Deals have been what the remain camp want - and they lost.

[youngmafbog]

Barnier only the other day poured cold water on the "3rd way" so I suspect they will say no. Their ultimate aim is to punish to prevent other leavers even if it spites themselves.

However Treason May is playing a dangerous game. If she delivers a Brexit of remaining in all but name she and the Tories are finished. Corbyn will be PM and the Tories will be banished for decades, if they recover at all.

[dannyk13]

ymb
I'm pretty certain that the hard line Brexiteers will not accept this and that it is doomed to failure. A hard Brexit looms.

[Zacs-Master]

youngmafbog ‘people who voted leave never had any doubt of the trials and tribulations from the EU’

Ya coulda fooled me judging by all the moaning coming from the leave camp. But that isn’t what this thread is about. It’s about May (a remain voter) causing friction within the UK by putting forward a compromise and the cabinet accepting it.

[youngmafbog]

We can but hope Danny. That is the only way so the Country needs to admit it and get on with it.

Of course, this could be the long game which shows the EU to be the intransigent beast we leavers know it is and May will be able to point to them not compromising in the slightest. But I really dont trust the woman and I'm not convinced she has the backbone or ability to play the long game.

[youngmafbog]

ZM, the leave voters want to leave. How difficult is that to understand?

The problem is the Government are listening too much to the loosers and not the wishes of the winners.

[Kromovaracun]

This is far too risky for a 'long game' strategy as it risks imploding the government. If this were being done strategically (rather than a last minute fudge like everything else to do with Brexit it seems) then you'd expect it to be introduced far earlier.

[Zacs-Master]

No one knows what the long game is as the EU hold all the cards. Knowing the EU is intransigent isn’t the preserve of leave voters.
