And why should the EU come up with any solutions ?
We're the ones that want the change, up to us to solve the issues and make sure proposals are workable and acceptable to all.

Because they want a deal as much as we do, and they certainly don't want to endanger the peace process in Northern Ireland.
I suspect that the quote, if it was actually made, was in jest rather than in all seriousness.
As far as a General Election is concerned, TM has categorically stated that there will not be one, so why there is so much speculation about this is hard to fathom. A leadership election maybe, but certainly not a General Election with Labour apparently doing well in the polls. What a dangerous move that would be.
Given the unrest in the Conservative Party after the EU's rejection of Chequers, I really do think TM should announce at the Conservative Party Conference that we are going to go for a Canada type trade agreement. This would get tne country behind her.
