Another new Brexit thread

[Saddleworth2]

Plenty of Remainers will be happy that something has now been agreed. Don’t fall into the trap that he did of generalising every single person on one side of the fence!

I'm very happy a deal has been achieved and a disaster averted. I'm also happy that those that voted Brexit at least get most of the things they voted for. It would have been bloody tragic if both sides were pissed off at what has been agreed.

 

[SWP's back]

Boris has gone from zero to hero in a flash. Get the country vaccinated by April and he could go down as the greatest PM ever? I’m not a conservative voter either.

Good. We don’t want you.

 

[BobKowalski]

Pretty much this...

‘I dunno guys. The fact the prime minister is telling untruth after untruth doesn't say great things about what's in that deal.’ @IanDunt

BoJo : Businesses can do more trade under this deal.
Really.
How?
Now being challenged by Newton Dunne on this AND How this agreement benefits services particularly finance.
Absolutely no answers
To repeat he either doesn't understand or he's just bullshitting.

 

[Hart of the Matter]

Does Johnson know what the deal is?
The more he talks the less clear it becomes...

LOL

It literally is, "So long and thanks for all the fish!"

Some snark from the BBC

“There will be no palisade of tariffs on Jan 1st, there will be no non-tariff barriers to trade”... says the PM

NOTE: the Govt lists new non-tariff barriers to trade with EU from Jan 1st here:

Export goods from the UK: step by step - GOV.UK

How to move goods from the UK to international destinations, including any special rules you’ll need to follow to move your goods from the UK.

I feel (weirdly) optimistic about the future :-)

Perhaps that's just relief that a deal has been done.

That was the con mate and you've fallen for it.

 

[urban genie]

No I did you responded to my post with a miserable post

I said it’s a good day

we have a trade deal
and have 600k vaccinated , it’s actually 800k which is even better news.

as it’s xmas eve I think that’s good news on the start of the xmas holidays and a reasonably good end to a shite year.

I don’t like boris he’s a tit, but those two facts on xmas eve I will take as a nice positive and I will go and have a nice glass of wine and light a fire and watch a movie And to think positively and optimistically for 2021

enjoy your gloom.

Fair enough mate a deal is better than none I just ain't rejoicing yet till full details are out and the fact hancock keeps saying we will vacinate x y z amounts and yet we ain't feels a lot like tgmhe testing debarcle.

If it changes so will my opinion.

And mate I am far from misserable and enjoying christmas eve immensely, I will just reserve my praise for BJ for now.

Merry christmas

Yep. Should have said we have a deal, it’s a good deal and left it to the papers to declare victory while we all get pissed over Xmas.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

‘No deal is better than a bad deal’ might have washed in 2019, but there’s a pandemic on now. Time to compromise, get beyond this farce and put an end to it. He has a majority so it should sail through parliament.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Well thank fuck for that.

As people have said before, even if it's not the best deal in the world, it makes zero sense to completely fuck over the economy because there are a few things you don't like about it.

 

[BobKowalski]

"There's some good language about equivalence on financial services... not as much as we would have liked".

Try and sell it a bit harder than that, you blathering tit, lol

Both

 

[Cheesy]

That was the con mate and you've fallen for it.

I've not fallen for anything. I'd rather we hadn't left the EU but we have. And getting a free trade deal makes me more optimistic about the future.

Great tie Boris

 

[FantasyIreland]

Jimmy Krankie aint happy.

Simply no

 

[smudgedj]

She’s going to be even more miserable when Boris scraps the Barnett formula so that every UK citizen is treated the same.

 

[Len Rum]

Interesting that BoJo gave very short shrift to Harry Cole of the Sun who ( surprisingly) asked him about the EU not sharing their defence and crime fighting databases with the UK and what he was going to do about it.
