Firstly, welcome back, I hope you're enjoying your new home.
Secondly, the NHS states the brand can only be sued with its authorisation.

Therefore, the NHS letters and NHS logo cannot be used as part of the corporate identity of an organisation or their strapline, or as part of the name or logo of a particular initiative, without authorisation.

This is a bit of a diversion, Andrew.

In any case, everyone knows that the NHS had nothing to do with the slogan on the bus.

It's correct that the pressure is on. Surely you can agree with my two words?

Anyone, who has followed this closely from Cameron's attempt at a small bit of reform, through to the referendum and the attitude of the EU along the whole process was prepared for this.

If TM wasn't, then she had been ill advised. Maybe she had some indication behind the scenes that there would be some positive movement, who knows.

The EU will not budge one cm. May should cut her losses, declare no deal, everybody had 6months to get their affairs in order, if they haven't already done so, and we move on.

I don't think the UK Government is at all prepared for no deal and will avoid it at all costs. They would have expected the EU to play hardball at some point. I wouldn't put it pass both sides here for this to have been almost part of the theatre.

Anyway May has called the BBC to No 10 and will make a statement at 1:45.

Mick's predictions are tingling again that in the next ten minutes she will announce her resignation as Prime Minister.

(Well one can only hope).

UK Prime Minister Theresa May is set to confirm she will not change tack on Brexit despite her Chequers plan being rejected by EU leaders.

There’s currently no power in the room at No 10 where the PM is going to make her speech so it might delay things a bit.

Finally the leadership the country desperately needs - that was a pretty awesome statement from Theresa May.

Stand up to those bully boy pricks May. I have not agreed with you for some time - I agree with your statement today and I commend this statement to the forum.

So you're right behind May's Chequers plan now ?

Is it not quite obvious that we are the country leaving the EU so It's up to us to come up with solutions and thus so far we have come up with none.

We're telling 27 countries they have to change their rules to fit in with our plans. Not surprising they're telling us to 'do one'. We always have over estimated our position.

Meh. As with the EU statement yesterday I am not sure what's changed. Tough talk but no climb down on Chequers and seems more a rebuke to their rebuke yesterday as well as tossing some red meat to the Brexit press and those in her party.
