    Brexit RomComm

    It's like a classic will-they-won't-they near the end of the penultimate act.

    Four elections and a referendum, starring Hugh Grant as David Cameron.....

      So even if they DID agree a deal in the next few days, in what way would that be 'agreed' in any practical way? Customs and borders and all that can't just implement new measures overnight.

      Could the deal say that things stay exactly as they are while those things are implemented, or is the way it's supposed to work all those transitions are in place by B-day for a seamless switch?

        It would be funny if BoJo got a deal and then parliament rejected it.

          There's supposed to be a 2 year transition period. So nothing changes overnight. Or probably ever...

            It's about a decade to finalise a deal with the EU. Probably 2 decades to replicate the deals (on worse terms) with other countries that we already had via the EU (who used collective clout to negotiate very good deals). And in between the US will be picking the juicy bits out of the carcass that used to be the UK.

            Well done, stupids.
            Hard Brexit now!

              In the year 2525, Brexit will still be alive.

                  A “deal” will need to be a Withdrawal Agreement. It needs to be agreed, then approved by both the EU plus our own Parliament, and then supporting legislation needs to be completed.

                  If it’s a twist on the existing WA then there’s a transition period included, so it doesn’t all need to be in place by B-day. We will need to seek an extension to be able to get the supporting legislation in place though.
