"It would also override provisions on state aid - the financial assistance sometimes given by the government to companies - which has been one of the key sticking points in talks." In this case, any deal negotiated would be voided by the removal of any agreement to maintain a key tenet of EU policy? I am not sure I understand what the implications of removing the Irish Sea checks would be. If the UK did nothing on that front, are they intending to force the EU to put some sort of measures in place at the NI-I border, allowing the UK to claim that, in respect to the GFA, their hands are clean? It would have consequences not foreseen now , as this could become reciprocal by E.U. for other agreements on E.U. side example for the U.K. citizens in E.U. and of course " ping ponged" to E.U. citizens in the U.K. and other already agreements by both …. meaning to ….square 0 including Air control travel... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They talk a good fight on the EU talks, but are utterly useless.

And because the UK made and still make this huge issue out of the fish, which is a tiny part of the UK business, they will possibly not make a trade agreement which would be useful in almost any other area of business. I am sure the UK would still profit overall if they would pay all UK fishermen a good salary every month for not working. But then again if people would have used logic then there wouldn't be Brexit. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted September 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2020 There was a time when experts from each country, or group of countries, looked at all the details and then then worked out what makes sense for both countries. And at some stage this changed to lots of (often incorrect) information in the media and politicians who manipulate the masses. And those politicians do this obviously for their own reasons and not for the masses. And if the frenzy is big enough then the masses are manipulated to concentrate on tiny issues without looking at the big picture. Now it seems soon the intense trading between the UK and EU will drop tremendously. And why? Because of that totally overhyped fishermen issue and obviously because of "taking back control".

Seems like it has now become a case of No WA is better than a bad WA. There's no honour to be lost in any dealings which overcome the EU's clutches, so ditching all the previously made 'obligations' is acceptable. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under what law or agreement are people that the UK considers “illegals” EU business? There’s none. If the UK has a problem with “illegal immigrants” then that’s the UK’s problem. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
