Re: Brexit discussion
This doesn't sound good.
Quote:
Theresa May’s quest for a “Canada plus” deal in Brexit talks has run into serious legal obstacles and may ultimately prove impossible, risking bitter disappointment and a political crisis next year as reality hits home.
Trade lawyers and European officials warn that even if the EU wants to grant the UK a bespoke deal that preserves unfettered access for goods and services, it cannot do so without granting parallel concessions to Canada, South Korea, and other countries that have free trade agreements. This would open up a Pandora’s Box.
“It is a minefield. Financial institutions are fully of aware of the problem but we have not yet heard anything from the Government,” Chris Bryant, an EU expert at lawyers Brewin Leighton Paisner.
