It is not finalised. Nothing is signed or sealed. Crucially, the 27 member states have not seen the legal text, which is thousands of pages. Nothing is agreed, until everything is agreed. Stop posting Fake News.

The decision of whether to introduce restrictions to free movement to protect public health remains the responsibility of member states. However, these restrictions have to comply with the principles of proportionality and non-discrimination as described in the EU treaties.

TBF the French need to sell whatever this is to their own highly belligerent domestic fishing industry. The domestic presentation on both sides will be “victory!”

I'm sure BoJo will go in hard on getting backbenchers to support him. Will be interesting to see what the opposition parties do.

Absolutely. Macron, BoJo and others will be mightily relieved but as you say, each will be claiming victory.
The UK had very few cards in the negotiations contrary to what many Brexiters would have us believe. But fishing was one of our few cards.

Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20
Update: From BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg: Frost and Riso are still in the room in Brussels talking so forget any chance of a 7pm announcement - may or may not be done in time tonight.
