However, it is on the agenda for debate because some remainers within her Cabinet rather like that idea.
The only solutions available are 'maximum facilitation' or 'no deal'. That is the real choice. The EU doesn't want a 'no deal' because the EU has an €80bn annual trade surplus with Britain. So it doesn't really take a lot of brain power to work out the best option both for Britain and the EU.
Common sense will prevail in the end.  |
I think we'll get a deal, out of interest though what will we be selling the day after we leave that we don't currently flog that make these trade deals so attractive

Front page of The Times says we'll most likely go for a Norwegian style deal unless Theresa May is overthrown by hard-line Brexiters. Unicorn-style deals have been ruled out by the EU. Fingers crossed she'll stay in power if this is accurate.  |
We'll get a better deal than Norway or else we might as well not bother with a deal at all
