Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostNo authority, but considerable influence.
Fact is, we now have a Deal that is acceptable to both the EU and HMG.
It is also likely to be acceptable to the vast majority of those that voted to Leave 3 years ago so in essence delivers what the majority requested.
For all the negativity and naysaying still being deployed by desperate Bremoaners, it seems likely that enough MPs will be of a mind to vote for it.
The Tory "Rebels" who were so vehemently opposed to "No Deal" now have a way back in, and the large number of Labour MPs sitting in charge of Leave voting constituencies (many of whom despise Jezza for a whole raft of reasons outwith this issue) will be acutely aware that their ass will be grass at the forthcoming GE if they don't get behind this Deal.
The DUP will also be aware that the majority of people in NI voted Remain, so this current compromise is likely to be broadly acceptable to their provincial electorate. Their current sabre-rattling will gradually recede over the next couple of days as a few backdoor sweeteners are pitched into the mix.
And there you have it folks, the outcome that we could and should have had 2-3 years ago had a Brexiteer been put in charge of negotiations from Day One instead of the ineffectual Maybot.
Just the last few loose ends to be tied up now and we can get on with shaping the future that those of us with backbone, vision, and confidence always anticipated.

Originally posted by Old Greg View PostIt's not the first time there has been a deal that EU and HMG are agreed on. We'll know soon enough whether Parliament accepts the Surrender Deal.
All it needs now is to be poo-pooed by dimwits like sas and NAT and it's fate will be assured.
Even darmy has given up, Whorty is squirming and trying to feign indifference, and Eirikur has vanished completely.
All over bar the bubbly popping in a fortnight's time.

Originally posted by meridian View PostI would hope it’s acceptable to the EU, it’s pretty much what they suggested two years ago before the U.K. insisted on an all-U.K. backstop. Because sovereignty.
Quite. Ineffectual perhaps, but the bulk of the pig that the lipstick is currently being applied to is still hers.Comment

Originally posted by Old Greg View PostFinding a Deal acceptable to two out of HMG, EU and HoC has never been the problem.
If it really is a good deal for the U.K. then an extra week or two of scrutiny will make no difference to the long term prosperity of the country.Comment
