It's the uncertainity that's been killing. --- End quote --- It’s a piss poor deal. I have a daughter on the EU brexit team , it’s very very light. Mostly covering non contentious things like cross recognition of qualifications , flight routes |

Ok, many Brits posters here, mostly with negative aura :-\, as an outsider, what are/is the good points out of these ? The bright side only please. |

Be interesting to see if they’ll be some sort of DDP system - prepaid VAT. Without duty (hopefully) it looks like VAT will be the only thing that will needs to be paid. Would make it easier if we can pay it when we get an order (DDP style) or when we place an order. I hate the idea of placing a small order with say TME for £30.00 and then getting a DHL invoice for £17.00 (£6.00 VAT and £11.00 disbursement 🤬). |

It can be voted down by ERG plants and then we end up with no deal still. --- End quote --- Labour will vote for this and most Tory MPs are fundamentally remainers held hostage by the brextremists in the party and can claim they are voting 'for' brexit by agreeing to this deal. The ERG will be irrelevant. Sadly, the chances of Farage & Co. fucking off permanently are minimal. --- End quote --- Aah, poor Farage is having a rough end to his year, first he loses Trump's 'frank admiration' and now his hard brexit, both within a couple of months! :-DD |

At least it's mitigated some of the damage that going to WTO terms would have wrought. |
