Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20

The lesson that has come out of the ERG's dissatisfaction with the current withdrawal agreement is that it was negotiated against tight deadlines and the EU gained the upper hand as a result.

Johnson had the opportunity to learn from this mistake and to extend the withdrawal agreement so the UK was not in such a situation when negotiating the rea. long-terml trade deal.

However, he chose not to and as a result, the UK is likely to get a worse deal than if he had. Like all remain voters I know, we've accepted the result and want the best deal for the country. The quickest deal is in conflict to the best.

Worst-case scenario for the Conservatives is Brexit becomes Labour's useless idiot and unlocks the door to many years of Labour in the same way that Corbyn goifted multiple terms to the Conservatives. The Government has acknowledged that austerity was a choice and it's not so much Rishi Sunak's magic money tree now but Rishi Sunak's magic money forest thus removing the Conservatives' traditional USP.
