What was put to the country via a GE was Borus v Corbyn. So no contest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The European commission believes Boris Johnson’s government breached the terms of the treaty just by taking the first steps to pass a new law that would negate key parts of the agreement signed last year. “Already by tabling the draft bill and pursuing the policy expressed therein, the UK government is in violation of the good faith obligation under the withdrawal agreement (article 5) because this bill jeopardises the attainment of the objectives of the agreement”, the commission lawyers write. The commission has advised the 27 EU capitals that there are therefore grounds for the bloc to take “legal remedies” through the European court of Justice before the end of the transition period, leading to significant fines or potential trade sanctions. much more …..

I wouldn't have thought that wanting the PM to be accountable for his actions which undermine an agreement that has implications for 28 states, and which references out to another agreement which safeguards the peace on the island of Ireland, could be described as "hanging little Johnny for stealing a gobstopper", but I guess that it comes down to interpretation. The second part of your analogy about "the local thuggery" is lost on me. Care to give an example? To paraphrase you: "The breaking of international law is, by definition, wrong." Fair play to you for stating that explicitly. Unfortunately, others on here can't accept that simple, basic premise and continue to suggest that the rule of law is there to be broken when it suits them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would counter it does not affect all 27 of the EU states, it affects 1. The EU can still do what it wishes re border control. The UK, IMHO, is just saying if theres no deal then they will do what we like because we are sovereign.

Is that not obvious, why should Canada get all the benefits who has never been a member, yet the UK who has been a very consistant cash cow for 40+ years get as of yet nothing, and Mr Barnier will only negotiate after we have given him all the fish that we possess. So it was very kind of Barnier to say that we can have sovereignty over our waters, but we don't have any say who fishes them, many would say, myself included the your negotiator is acting in very bad faith, now most people would recognise this, but followers of the EU idealogy are not most people I guess. wonder what's inside your head, that's confusing to read your train of thought, Canada is Canada, Australia is Australia they have nothing to do with the EU, they have a trade deal which is different from one another, UK is Uk they had it all but I guess it was not enough they decided to quit, now they want the same deal as before or better then before, is it a little more clear now ? hope so 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of border control you are most likely correct, although I'm not sure if Gibraltar/ Spain is mentioned in the Withdrawal Agreement? However, the agreement also covers (processes relating to) citizens rights, division of assets and liabilities, all of which will be thrown out if this new bill is passed. 25 minutes ago, MRToMRT said: Local thuggery is China, Russia and USA who have broken international law so many times in the last few years they are almost uncountable. Isn't this a 'two wrongs make a right' argument? The 'Internal Market' bill is not just applicable to this negotiation, it can be invoked at any time. Imo it is a very dangerous piece of proposed legislation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3NUMBAS Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 The reason that the EU has failed to do a free-trade deal with the US, China, India, and now Britain is that in all cases it tries to use the negotiations to enhance its power and hegemony to a degree unacceptable to sovereign nations. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
