UK tells EU: back down by Sunday night or we'll walk

[CG1 Blue]

My condolences to those remainers and EU fanatics who desperately hoped a deal would not be achieved. This will be a difficult time for you, but please don't let it spoil your Christmas ????

Yet more of the ignorant garbage  we have come to expect from Brexiteers.

 

But it's ok to call our PM a surrenderer? Double standards...

You’ll need to post a link to where I called the UK PM a surrender or retract or be owned by your baseless assertion.

 

Which will it be?

OK go without the food, that’ show them.

Don't you worry about us, we'll be shopping elsewhere before too long, probably cheaper and without strings attached....

Now that there is a deal, will corpuschristie insist that the food aid that Germany sent, be redirected to Africa?

My condolences to those leavers, who always insisted that they would leave without a deal which Boris claimed he would, as they didn't need the EU and would never back down on the fishing rights, but now have to live with the consequences that Boris once again lied and sold them out to the EU

Just be careful what else is ‘attached ‘.

A deal, and a bad one, has always been an absolute certainty, a deal on an FTA or a deal on contingency measures.

I suspect the negotiators couldn't face starting over on the latter.

 

You wishing for it, doesn't make it an absolute certainty - jeeze the arrogance of some people....

Watching the press conference, Barnier and Von Der Leyen looking exhausted and not too happy.

 

Sky News downbeat too. Trying to predict and  discredit Johnsons upcoming speech before he even made it.????

 

Great signs for Beexiteers.

 

Merry Christmas everyone.

Just bizarre ! Endless months of bleating about wanting a no deal and when a deal comes that has capitulation by Boris all over it you’re lauding it like a result! So so funny. Boris has caved in, Barnier has toyed with him like a cornered mouse from start to finish. 
 

When the minutes come out let’s compare Boris’s red lines to what he came out with - enjoy your mince pies !  

[Hi from France]

Just watched the press conference live

I'm sorry most of the Brits here will be unable to follow a trilingual press conference,but there are two things to make note of :

1. The UK leaves Erasmus 

2. Enough time for 2 questions... and the first one was "what do we do if the Brits renege again"? 

 

I'm proud to be a European today and sorry for the Brits who wanted to stay with us.

How can you not discredit it ? Only a fool could see he didn’t blink first. 
 

On the precious leavers fish (0.1% gdp)  I think it was 80% reduction over 3 years, or similar Boris demanded (our resident fish guru Loiner will be along to correct me if I’m wrong) and ends up with just 25% over 5.5 years ? 
 

haha way to go Boris ! The yanks must be dribbling at the thought of negotiating a deal with this clown ! 
 

Starmer is a shoe in for the next prime minister 

[vogie]

The Brexiteers stated exactly what would happen that the EU would cave at the 11th hour, well done Boris. Besides with all the insults and snide remarks coming from our friends across the water, one can assume quite safely it must be a good deal. We have even one Brit who is pretending to be French just so he can insult us. ????????????

[Chomper Higgot]

For the time being we have the UK Government's spin to go on.

 

By tomorrow morning we’ll start to receive the in depth analysis.

 

Merry Christmas

You should send your condolences to those hard line remainers/rejoiners who desperately wanted a no-deal as that is the only way they could see the UK rejoining the EU soon. They were hoping a hard sharp shock to the country would  persuade the country to rejoin.

Remind me what the Boris fish red lines were and what he’s got ?

Of course Armageddon is coming, that's why the pound has jumped to $1.36 today - my, my, what a disaster....

What was it before the vote ? 
 

Jeeze at least make this difficult ! 

[CG1 Blue]

I think it's quite revealing that the EU contributors on here are still apparently quite upset. That suggests to me that the UK has played a blinder. Onwards and upwards!

Really ? How ? 
 

So back to the red lines - it’s widely reported - what did Boris say he would get (or die in a ditch) and what did he end up with? 
 

If you don’t know it’s ok just say - we’ll tell you ....

I'm sad for Britain, but happy for the EU. We did a great job, thanks to Barnier. 

 

I was also happy with Ursula during the press conference ????

 

When I get back to my computer I'll show you what I just saw at the supermarket ????
