I believe he had concerns that the EU had too much power in the deal.

Probably waking up to the fact that sovereignty ≠ power.

So, how long before the ERG start pushing for greater divergence and eventually for an end to the entire deal?

The Erg ?
Probably as there will have been a GE in 5 years ;)

As for fish after 5 years, the EU will hit us with tariffs if they don't continue to get their share. Read the "deal', no one else has.....

As they are our largest trading partner if we've 'washed our hands of them' , then we're in trouble.

Time to wake up to reality. When we do take back control, who to blame then? :confused:
Surely not our talented Govt? Priti Patel, Gavin Williamson, Alok Sharma, Prattcock, Bozza., who can fail, with a team like that?

Probably not very long. But that’s part of the democratic debate in a sovereign country isn’t it. They may or may not make their case. Our rules may or may not diverge, we may in time see tariffs or quotas or we may not. We may take decisions about any of these things because we are no longer bound by the entire acquis communautaire. Which was the entire point of Brexit. Personally I’m happy with that.

BREAKING: The House of Lords has approved The EU Future Relationship Bill and now awaits Royal Assent from the Queen to become law.

Boris Johnson's Brexit deal has been given royal assent by the Queen after MPs and Peers approved the Bill in Parliament on Wednesday.

The bill was fast-tracked through the House of Commons in just over four hours, despite protests from the SNP.

It then moved to the House of Lords where the legislation received an unopposed third reading by Peers.

The legislation was then given royal assent by the Queen at 12:25am on Thursday morning.

The 448 majority in the Commons comes after Labour MPs were whipped to vote in favour of the deal, with Sir Keir Starmer arguing a "thin deal" was better than a No Deal Brexit.

After receiving the Monarch's approval, it will take effect at 11pm on Thursday.
