It's great news and it's a terriffic coup for the Government. Congratulations to all concerned.
Word has it that Google has been promised something on the freedom of movement front; only time will tell if these rumours are true.

Well I'm sure there'll be a 'memo' conveniently leaked by someone with an axe to grind if any such 'deal' has been done. In the meantime we can all carry on feeding the rumour factory and debating its output. Maybe it'll eventually float on the stock exchange like Snapchat and make someone very rich...

Brexit is going to be very complicated and there will be differences of opinion amongst those who support it and are going to have to do the negotiations. There'll be arguments and disagreements along the way just like there were amongst the allies in WWII. So what? It's inevitable. I think what we're seeing here is the media seeking unequivocal answers to a whole lot of questions which can't yet be answered and then baying for blood when they're not forthcoming because it's that which sells papers. It's a win win for them because their pages and airtime get filled either way but for HMG is just means having to spend more time/effort defending what's been/being done whilst trying not to give away too much.

I wish someone out there would leak some memos telling us what the EU's big plan for Brexit is and how well that's going. Evidently they were just as surprised as we were about the result so does anyone think they have a credible policy which is agreed to by all? Odd that we're not getting anything on that side of things isn't it. I suppose it's much more fun for the media here to present the UK as being the mother of all chaos...

Well said Osem. This isn't a simple problem and many peoples lives and livelihoods are going to be impacted both here and in other countries. It's time the overpaid, self aggrandising, pompous piggies get their snouts out of the trough, stop fighting with each other and work towards the best solution for us who pay them and are going to be most affected. Politicians and lawyers will always find a way to minimise the impact to themselves and to get the most out of the situation to their benefit.

Don't think some of the govt. are on the 'Brexit bus'. There's some that want to get off at the first stop . Don't blame them.

Well if they cannot work towards a constructive brexit that's in the national interest then i hope they have the courage of their convictions and resign it's happening there's no going back no matter how much some EU fans may dream. All this obstruction is going to do is weaken the UK's hand in negotiations and given the financial bomb that may soon explode within the EU it's in their interest for an easy negotiation process as ours.

Boris has done it this time, if Brexit means no Prosecco than I'm 'out'.... I was in Italy last month and it was 3 Euro a bottle in the supermarket, so think I know where I'll be going.

Except for the fact that the bus driver may know our destination, he doesn't know the route to get there or how long it will take, and the conductor doesn't know how much the fare is, the conductor and driver can't agree where the destination is, and you've spent the last couple of years repeatedly stating how incompetent the bus staff are, and what liars they are...

And the bus runs on hot air and is a bendy bus that bends around facts and truth

It wasn't just leave that distorted things or exaggerated no side has the moral high ground on that so maybe it's time to give it a rest especially as the campaigns did little to alter the way people were going to vote whatever side they were on.

Is this really how low politics has sunk in this country, why bother holding any of them accountable for anything anymore if this is the case
