Upset ? I haven’t stopped laughing ! 

Stop whining about red lines then, and be happy that both sides have reached agreement. Otherwise you just sound bitter (upset)

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 !  

Your lips must be smarting, chomping on all those sour grapes...

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. 

 

Congrats to Boris for surrendering on Christmas eve, to avoid chaos for his country next year, great sacrifice and present for his country ????

 

Boris delivered, and we should all thank him for it. Imagine if it was Maybot, it would have been another extension of 1 year and more pointless negotiation ????

You have really no idea what you are spouting about do you? 

I will confirm that you are wrong again though, ‘cos I’m here and not even interested in correcting you. You don’t figure highly enough on my fish scales.

Rather disingenuous, considering you spent the last 4.5 years trying to reverse the prospect. 

 

Why would you do that, if you're so glad to see the back of us?

 

What exactly have you won?

 

Spin it anyway you like, UK are the winners being free of the EU shackles come Dec 31st....

. 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.

Judging from the increased bitterness of their recent posts, I think the only thing we can assume is that we have no friends from across the water. The vitriol and bile posted by the europosters is only surpassed by a couple of those who prefer a cloak of anonymity.

The art of negotiating isn't your strong suit is it 

Haha really ? Negotiation versus capitulation, get your head around the difference
 

I predicted on here months ago that people grasping for no deal had no chance. That there was always going to be a deal on Barniers terms and hey presto ! and the no deal protagonists are suddenly claiming everything’s come up roses to save face ! So funny 

 

So I’ve asked a few of your chums who all seem to be dumbstruck again when it comes to detail (meaningless sound bites bring their speciality) - what were Boris’s RED lines and what has he settled for ? the information is all out there. 
 

If you think that is the art of negotiation you’re doomed from the start !

What are you reading ? I haven’t stopped grinning since the Boris capitulation was confirmed ! 
 

Did you come up with the post brexit economic blueprint ? ???????? you seemed to be struggling with that one

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 ????

Condolences to those who yearned for a no deal and have now had to settle for a deal closer to the EU demands ????

[candide]

Good news! It seems to be ok and diplomatically packaged, so that each side can claim a win (some people already do it without having read the deal ???? ).

 

Of course details must be scrutinised in order to get a full understanding of the consequences.

More scaremongering, with totally fictitious predictions....

 

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

Because markets hate uncertainty. The pound has jumped because now the markets know what is happening. Don’t be fooled into thinking that just because the pound has risen that this means it is a good deal for the UK.

I was referring to a gloat  that the pound was at a fabulous level now based on the EU favoured deal whereas the poor misfortunate poster neglected to check what it was before he stabbed the U.K. in the back with his vote 

 

Who was it now .....????

The economic post brexit blueprint - anything yet ? First draft even ? 

 

????????????

[welovesundaysatspace]

Without having seen the details of the agreement yet, I think it’s fair to say that:

 

Albeit this deal is better than no deal, especially during a pandemic; it’s pretty close to no deal. It covers trade, security, fishery and research. It doesn’t cover services. And it doesn’t cover regulatory alignment. There won’t be duties, but there will be customs and regulatory checks and all the red tape it brings. 
 

That being said, our goal was to protect the single market and that achieves this agreement. The UK will ask herself whether this really was worth it. 
 

One thing’s for sure: This won’t mark the end. Many topics remain open or have been touched only on the surface. The endless negotiations will go on. But with Brexit “done” and a deal in place, the UK might be able to get rid of Brexiteers and get back to normal. I see this deal as a transition period ????

Just another rabid Remainer, an old dog barking at everything that passes the gate. Still growling while returning to gnaw at the old bone another dog discarded. 

I haven’t even seen the details of the deal yet, but they must have got you in a tailspin. It sounds like any predictions for either No Deal, or with somebody’s forecasted deal, now need a major revision to reflect what has been agreed. Meanwhile you are still going back for your old bone.

ok Boris surrendering will be announced in a few hours today ????

 

the deal is done, they have to read proof it and make it official to the press

 

then we have to wait for the UK parliament approval and the EU27 approval, so we could be in for another 6months battle next year, so all good ????

 

  Nope , the UK is out the E.U , we have signed new agreements with the E.U .
