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!

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

There you have it. Both sides are forgetting that and letting politics muck it up for the real people.

Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20
It doesn't seem to be going very well.
Quote:
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.
