it's that they've stopped gloating about it.

Quite contrary, it seems no one has “stopped gloating about it”—Brexiteers have started gloating about it. For some reason they seem to think that parliament deciding to break international laws somehow makes it ok, whereas everyone else seems to think that it doesn’t matter an iota who domestically would be responsible for it, as the outcome doesn’t change.

Storm in a teacup. Bunch of drama queens.

If you call no-deal, fines and sanctions on top of your recession and pandemic a “Storm in the teacup”...

Looks like someone already blinked.....what a farce.

...and 80% of the benefits go to Japan, the UK improving just 0.1x% compared to its existing EU-JP trade deal. That’s what happens when you’re small and desperate. 
 

Good news is, they can always ask their sovereign parliament to break what they signed up for. 
 

Thai people can see our Western Covidiots who refuse to wear masks and call this virus a “hoax” all over the news every day. Of course they don’t want those people come here. I hope the borders stay closed as long as possible, and people are only let in after mandatory 14 days quarantine.

In particular I enjoyed the part that points out how they were all gloating that "Parliament is sovereign" while the Remainer parliament was frustrating the democratic will of the people, not so now.

I haven’t seen anyone questioning that parliament is sovereign. I think everyone has been pretty clear that it would be the sovereign parliament that would be breaking international law, not Boris or his government alone.

The part about EU states themselves breaking EU treaties was also spot on, but of course they are immune to the faults of the EU.

That’s life, it’s not always fair. Won’t help you with your own breaking the law though.

Tory rebellion widens over Boris Johnson's bill to override Brexit deal

Criticism grows of plan to break international law as EU calls for bill to be dropped

 

Let’s hope it stays just below the majority he needs, so we can still impose fines and sanctions on top of not having a trade agreement during a bad recession and pandemic. That’s what these frauds deserve.

Not quite sunshine,domestic law overturns international law....proposed law now passing quickly through legislators...sorry to upset you    duh

No, it doesn’t. Embarrassments like this happen when you talk about stuff that you don’t have a clue about.

Good faith was part of the agreement. The EU already reneged on this by making completely unreasonable demands that failed to respect the UK's sovereignty.

You’re pretty much alone with your creative definition of what constitutes good and bad faith. You could as well claim that elephants are small and green. You’re just ridiculing yourself, as so so often. Good luck finding an international court agreeing with you.

International law? you do not know what you are on about,nothing international about it, its UK domestic.         

Will you brexiteers ever do your homework before making of fool of yourself in front of everyone? You’re using your computer to post nonsense; is a quick google search really that far away? 
 

The Withdrawal Agreement is, of course, international law.

Barnier couldn't sell blood to Dracula, he couldn't negotiate his way out of a brown paper bag. And all of the EUs businesses are reliant on him, god help them.

EU business are reliant on the single market. He’s protecting the single market. Guess why all the car manufacturers running to Merkel that you predicted haven’t happened? We are on track in this negotiation. We are not the ones who’s looking for someone to blame.

I would like to bet if you were/are a businessman that the last person you would have working for you is Mr Barnier.

You: how much have you sold this month Michel.

Barnier: nothing.

You: brilliant, keep up the good work.????????????????

Mr. Barnier protects our biggest key account. If that means losing the small fish: be it. Not everyone is telling their sales man to protect the 0.1% market while losing the 50% market ????

Come on this is rubbish.

Every FTA is different , because every nation's requirements are not the same.

Don’t forget you’re talking to business illiterates here, who neither have the knowledge nor any interest in such topics. As we have learned from these Brexiteers, if they had a business, they would:

(1) Give every supplier/customer the same business terms; 

(2) Tell their biggest business partner to pay double the price for half the service, otherwise they’d be happy to walk away since they’re buying five times the value from them than the other way round; 

(3) Instead groom that one customer that buys half a small fish every other year; and 

(4) Breach contracts because “as a sovereign“ company they have the right to do so. 

The good thing is they’re always a good source of entertainment when they’re making a fool of themselves. Now they won’t get a trade deal and will be known as frauds who breach agreements and international law, so it’ll get even more fun as their failing country is isolated and wrecked even further.

Down playing what part? Enough of the hysterics. 

Downplaying breaching agreements and international law.

None of the Remainers or Euros here can identify what is the actual illegal bit. Plenty of links to accusations which also can never explicitly show the alleged illegality. 

Article 26 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties

But who cares. Everyone knows you’d be breaching international laws; everyone knows you’d be breaching an international treaty. Your government openly admits it. Your justifications and downplaying just underline and prove to everyone that you cannot be trusted. That’s worth much more.

Yes, but she would not refuse to do so as it would cause a constitutional crisis in the UK.

 

An unelected head of state making her country break international law. Welcome to the UKSSR.
