Both I and others have predicted this outcome from day 1.

We will be out of the Common Fisheries arrangements, which means that we control our own waters. So we decide who fishes there, just as we did pre-common market. The fisheries industry has been crying out for this change.
Theresa May has already confirmed that under her proposals, we will no longer be under the control of the ECJ.
I am struggling to work out what your objection actually is. I have no qualms about crashing out of the EU under WTO rules if we have to, but a trade deal relating to our EU trade is sensible.
We want trade deals all over the world. The one we are discussing now just happens to be the EU one.

An interesting sound bite from the PM. More here
Quote:
Talking about the president's advice on how to handle the EU, Mrs May said: "Interestingly, what the president also said at that press conference was 'don't walk away'.
"Don't walk away from those negotiations because then you'll be stuck. So I want us to be able to sit down to negotiate the best deal for Britain...
Mrs May insists her plans would allow the UK to strike its own trade deals, despite agreeing a "common rulebook" with the EU on cross-border trade.
She said such rules were needed to protect jobs in firms with "integrated supply chains" and deal with the Irish border issue.

I heard about the interview but I couldn't watch it for fear of breaking the TV. I have heard the crushing reviews though. May is running on empty.

I'm sure that these are your legitimate concerns, Seph, but I do think you are making assumptions here. Theresa May has emphatically ruled out remaining under the jurisdiction of the ECJ, for a start. You don't know that anything will be 'given away' in terms of our fisheries policy, and I'm not sure which social policies you think will continue to be in place.
There are parts of the White Paper I would like to see clarified, but we will have to wait for that. In the meantime, we should not jump to conclusions.

OB, I think you've also jumped to the conclusion that we can take May at her literal word. Whereas I've used judgement based on what's been happening to date and the weasel wording of the White Paper to conclude otherwise.

So it doesn't matter what May says. You will disregard these comments and believe something else. That is your right, I suppose, but I prefer to take people at their word and read what documents actually say.
From what I can see so far, all May is doing is trying to get a favourable trade deal with Brussels. Outside of ECJ jurisdiction, outside of the EU, common market and customs union, and an end to free movement.
What's wrong with that?

Except that you always get that feeling that we're being sold out to the EU as so many times before.

I know, and I think that is what all Brexiteers, including me, are worried about. However, so far, Theresa May has not said anything that alarms me. Let's see how it goes. If those red lines start to get fuzzy, I will be joining with all the hardliners, screaming for WTO.
But do you really think she will commit an act of political suicide? People would not stand for it, and you can already see a flavour of the kind of reaction you will get from the public if we don't get a proper Brexit. Theresa May's ratings have plummeted in the expectation she will foul up. If she doesn't, and we get the true Brexit we want, just watch those ratings soar again.
