    How so?

    And if so, are you really surprised that a government led by a Boris lied to you?

    I wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if Boris sells us down the river, he never intended to go for no deal, he's just another self serving egotistical liar.

    I think Christmas Eve/Day would be a good day for Boris to announce bad news. I'll call him a twat now.
    Boris you are a TWAT !

    This was a negotiation where there was never going to be a winner. A good deal is where both sides feel that they have been equally hard done by!!

    Surely it means that the middle ground between each side's starting point has been reached??

    Macron. Isn't that French for Shitforbrains? There'll be a few thousand lorry drivers and their families who reckon that to be the case - many of them French. That'll be an own goal then!

    Finally, nothing really changed.
    We still can cross the channel both way, fishermen can go fishing,
    I can go to my uk office without visa.
    A lot of smoke for a candle fire isn't it?

    IMO it will be a few weeks before we get any real feel on how things are going to pan out. I guess as usual there are going to be winners and losers

    My guess is that if the ERG don’t kick up a fuss,then it’s a good deal.
    I know there’s going to be grumbling about the fish but we aren’t in a position to take back 100% of the quotas and considering the EU originally wanted 14 years I believe the current agreement is reasonably fair and practical.

    As @Wessa says, we'll have to wait and see what details come out but the big thing for us Brexiteers is that we appear to have got rid of being overuled by the European courts and that's one of THE main issues.
