The political declaration is a separate document to the 585-page withdrawal agreement, published last week, which covers the UK's £39bn "divorce bill", citizens' rights after Brexit and the thorny issue of the Northern Ireland "backstop" - how to avoid the need for a manned border on the island of Ireland. The withdrawal agreement is legally-binding - the political declaration is not. Theresa May has hailed the draft agreement on post-Brexit relations different things one would think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want johnson to explain exactly what acceptable, workable, credible alternative he has, that is good to go now. As a none Brit, I can understand your reluctance to watch the interview. However for us Brits, we want to know all the facts and arguments. For the simple reason, that we do not want to get conned and lied to, as happened in 1975, when we were promised that we would only be joining a trading block called the EEC. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A government source said the move was to help the new prime minister get on with implementing his domestic agenda. "There will be ample opportunity for people to discuss Brexit before and after the EU council [in October]," they added. Sky News understands the full cabinet has not yet been informed.

Senior sources said a privy council of senior ministers was preparing to meet the Queen at Balmoral this week, perhaps as soon as Wednesday to set this in motion. Leaked emails revealed at the weekend that the prime minister, Boris Johnson, had sought legal advice about proroguing parliament for five weeks from early September, when MPs are already expected to break briefly for party conferences. A new session of parliament would then begin with a fresh Queen’s speech packed with manifesto-friendly measures on or around 14 October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main points of agreement between UK and EU in Brexit deal as you can see it didn't mention Teresa May but did mention the UK There is NO deal between the UK and the EU and no matter how many words you use or how you slice and dice it, Until a proposal is put before parliament and is voted and agreed upon, there STILL is NO deal. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment this is true, to a certain extent - as MPs are very worried about losing their seats at the next GE. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same the Good Friday agreement with NEVER an hard border beween N & S Ireland. There is no reason for a hard boarder, except to keep the U.K shackled to the E.u.
