hopefully a deal get over the line |  Am sure we'll get a deal - talk of no-deal being acceptable may have ralied a few populists but was never really on the agenda. Come 2021, we will be a less competitive and less influential nation but negotiations on our relationship with the EU will continue; they will be part of the post-EU member state new normal.

 On a lighter note, this new parody account (I'm assuming that's what it is) is currently amusing me no end!   https://twitter.com/johnredwood/stat...35720610783233 |

			One of the ironies arising from a deal, if it happens, is that from day 1, OB has assured us that a deal will be reached at the last hour.
 Not sure "ironies" is the right word, but you know what I mean.

 |  One of the challenges of "reaching a deal at the last hour" is how Government/businesses put in place the processes and procedures to support that last minute deal...

			It doesn't  seem to be going very well. 
	https://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...-b1762114.htmlQuote: 
	
		| Downing Street has admitted that it does not know if EU negotiator Michel Barnier will turn up for face-to-face Brexit trade talks which are due to resume tomorrow. 
 The admission came after reports suggested Mr Barnier was pulling out of the talks unless there is a major shift in the UK’s negotiating stance.
 |  
And I thought we had the EU on their knees ? Turns out we're not worth bothering about.
