Also, got to love the way No. 10 are now trying to spin the WA as "Theresa May’s Withdrawal Agreement" - I’m sure it was BJ’s "oven ready agreement" when it went to the country / Houses of Parliament...

As BJ said 3 weeks before the Election
The WA was Brexit, that was delivered. We have left the EU. No going back. They are NOT seeking to amend the CURRENT arrangements, just ones for the FUTURE. They are looking for the "defects" to be rectified for from Jan 2021. It was "oven ready" as in something Parliament would agree to quickly. They had yet to agree to anything. The EU also had to agree to it, and they had.

27 acres is not exactly "huge swathes". Anyway, Link.

Asked about reports the government had bought land in Kent to build a large lorry park as part of preparations for post-Brexit border checks, Mr Gove said: "It is not our intention to create a massive concrete lorry park, it is the intention to provide the smart infrastructure which in Kent and elsewhere will allow the freight to flow."
