Cable Forum - Britain outside the EU

He really doesn't get it, or more likely, does not want to get it.

Here's a good Newsnight recap of the upcoming new Brexit pain: https://twitter.com/i/status/1752108693364052447

I do get it, I read about all your positions on Brexit in the recent new book you released.

No they didn't. Some did, a lot did not. Truth matters

and nor should they, whatever happened to aspiration or wanting better for your children, why lumber them on the bottom rung of the ladder when there is people happy to do those jobs

Let’s keep to the topic, and less of the personal attacks, please.

Looks like the government has got something right in respect of Brexit.

What will it mean for Irish Sea border goods checks?

Most significantly, the DUP's deal with the government will reduce checks and paperwork on goods moving from the rest of the UK into Northern Ireland.

It means there would no longer be "routine" checks on GB goods which are sent to Northern Ireland with the intention of staying there.

Those changes involve the maximum flexibility allowed under a previous EU/UK deal.

It is understood the move will be acceptable to the EU.

On Tuesday the UK and EU Joint Committee reached agreement to make changes to that previous deal to allow Northern Ireland to benefit from UK Free Trade Agreements.

The UK government will also introduce two pieces of legislation to guarantee Northern Ireland goods can be sold in GB in all circumstances and to affirm Northern Ireland's place in the UK.

I've always felt that Sunak's one of the more competent PMs out of the last few PMs we've had and this supports my argument. Not that the bar was especially high, mind.

Four years ago tonight I was at No10 with @BorisJohnson getting Brexit finally done.

Britain has been re-established as a true national democracy in which national elections really matter.

Despite the harping criticisms of many, then and now, the predictions of doom have never materialised and the British economy is doing at least as well as its European competitors.

Only problem is, like so much he says, it’s a lie…

Re: Britain outside the EU

I missed The Victorian Ring Wraith on GB news the other day telling farmers how much better off they are free of EU regulations oddly the farmers seemed to disagree, so much so many seem to had the temerity to go bust, mind you we can't say we weren't warned that farming would have to be sacrificed by Patrick Minford himself and nothing reeks of sovereignty more than relying on other countries for your food

Quote:

The book also foresaw a backlash against the footloose, cosmopolitan elites that digital technology would help create. The economy’s “losers”, as Rees-Mogg and Davidson called them, who “do not excel in problem-solving or possess globally marketable skills”, would turn to nationalism and bitter nostalgia. They would “seek to thwart the movement of capital and people across borders”.
