You have surely must have grasped by now that the EU IS willing to go with No Deal. Reluctantly but nonetheless. They’ve been planning for it for months.
And I’ll tell you this: Boris Johnson knows it too and so do his cabinet. The greater part of the Conservative party membership and MOs are obsessed with the idea that if Brexit is not delivered it will mean the end of the Tory party. They are surely wrong about they but no matter. They believe or fear it and that is the reason for the “Oct 31 do or die” stuff. Nothing whatever to do with bouncing the EU into talks - unless they are dafter than they look.

jim: "At the moment the simple fact is that "No Deal" isn't a threat to the EU" - so german jam jars won't get slapped with duty then? French wine etc, The EUSSR is completely un harmed by no deal is it? Right oh! Well they don't seem to think so. Why is everything always bad on our side but harmless to the EUSSR with you and co?

No, of course it will be. I had made that clear in an earlier post -- and several times before. You're right that the sentence you've quoted implies otherwise, though.
To clarify, again -- No Deal is a far greater threat to the UK than it is to the EU. Proportionally we will be affected far worse. Moreover, the EU is probably rather better-prepared for it than we are. So in that sense, the sentence should have read "No Deal is not enough of a threat to the EU."

Jim 14:34, yes until she came back with a non "deal" that could not ever have been accepted under any circumstances, it basically guaranteed perpetual vassalage. Jim would you have voted to accept May's deal ?
PS I did suggest some weeks ago that OG checks what he writes before submitting but that was met with an angry comment.

I don't even understand the point Naomi is making. I'm perfectly aware that Deals work both ways, or not as the case may be.
Sorry for being boring then, danny. Still, better to make the point as forcefully as I can now, while it still make make at least some difference, than afterwards, when it will be rather too late.
TTT: depends on what voting against the deal would have meant. In a straight choice between Remain and the Deal I'd have voted to Remain. In a choice between that deal and No Deal I'd have voted for the deal. I don't know why you needed me to say this, again, as it's another thing I've repeatedly made clear. Just as you said you'd prefer Remaining to the Deal (and No Deal to Remaining).

I’ve long thought “Brexit” is one of those things that can only ever be acceptable to its supporters as an idea.
Put flesh on it and they recoil in horror. That was why I’ve always said that Brexit failed from the moment the deal came back with Mrs May. The conundrum of the Irish border is its Achilles heel in chief
