I think so both sides seem happy as do many commentators, even the ABBC.

Well, it's a damn sight better than no deal, which is the alternative. I get the odea.that some folk would rather that had happened just so they could paint Boris as the villain. He's done a good job in this instance.

yes mozz I know you are essentially a remoaner but you are at least able to show pragmatism in the situation we find ourselves in. Most of rest of the detractors scratch around trying to highlight and indeed wish for pitfalls and negativity so they can spit their bile. I just thought I'd let you know that it does not go unnoticed. ......and nope had few bucks fizzes but not at all peed!

No. Because no one has read it, not even the MPs who are expected to approve it this week.
The 1,246 page document will be made available today. Only then can we make a judgement.
The 64 answers before this one are from people who have not read it. Presumably they are just parroting what Johnson and his cronies want them to believe. Problem is, the man is a proven liar.

//TTT the details are listed in my link above.//
From the said link:
"Five hundred pages long – and not yet published..."
As I said in another thread, nobody knows what's included in the document. And our MPs won't know when they vote on it because I imagine few, if any of them, will read it - let alone have a chance to digest its implications - before next week's vote.

Fishing bit rumoured to be very dodgy. They don't have fishing rights in UK waters (only in EU waters) so it's not feasible to return 25% of zero rights. Plus no immediate change as any change is to be phased in ! Then, if we take back control and opt not to allow others to fish our resource, for whatever reason, then apparently the EU has the right to apply tariffs on our gish exports to them. Since there is no justification for such an action then there can be no such right signed up to. If this is an example of the whole thing, it may not be worth the paper it's written on.
as Sunk predicted the other day, the fisherfolk don't think the deal is good at all
“Lacking legal, moral, or political negotiating leverage on fish, the EU made the whole trade deal contingent on a UK surrender on fisheries,” he said. “In the endgame, the prime minister made the call and caved in on fish, despite the rhetoric and assurances that he would not do what Ted Heath did in 1973.”

Funny old world ... all the remoaners who were telling us that the fish meant sweet fanny adams(or something like that) during the dance with the devils in the EUSSR, are now squeaking "but what about the poor fish." Haha. Meehh, we are out but they are still taking entrants. Byeeee missing you already.
Bang on Togs, yes I'd like to have a better fish deal but it's 0.02% of GDP, we got the rest pretty much to our liking, the rest of the EUSSR will be wondering why they had to give so much up to please the firesides. All the naysayers above are remoaners who's previous preferred position was prostate at the feet of an unelected junta, now they are having a hissy fit over the tiny tiny bit of a concession.
