Evidence? Of what exactly? As far as state aid is concerned, it's a matter of who decides. "Level playing field" is a lot more than about state aid.

If it became law it would give UK ministers powers to modify or "disapply" rules relating to the movement of goods between Britain and Northern Ireland that will come into force from 1 January, if the UK and EU are unable to strike a trade deal.
Why on earth should the EU control that?

And people were talking about the UK breaking up long before Boris, before any referendum, and before 2010.

It's been on offer from the EU since 2016.

How? No possible deal could be discussed or presented by anybody before the UK officially left the EU and the Transitional Agreement started. That is in the EU Treaty.

Even now there isn't a deal presented by the EU. All there they've said, is that they're looking for an agreement on fishing BEFORE anything else can be discussed. They're saying they're going to steal our fish anyway, and sell them in EU without any tariffs, whereas any UK caught fish would have a tariff applied to sell in the EU. How is that a "level playing field". It is also why a Trade Deal MUST be in place BEFORE any discussions on fishing.

The shape of deals can be seen here.

So STILL no evidence of any deal presented to the UK, and certainly not one from 2016. The article is from 2 years ago.
The UK is the ONLY side to present even a draft example agreement.

It's always been up to the UK to select from that smörgåsbord of options to use as the starting point for a deal.

So are you finally admitting that NOTHING is on offer from the EU and NOT from 2016?

From your 2 year old link.

Despite all these tariff benefits however, the most significant benefit for seamless movement of goods appears to be missing. There is still a hard border between the EU and Ukraine and all the border crossing formalities continue to have to be fulfilled (such as – import and export documentation, permits and border physical checks).

Imagine all the whinging that would happen if the EU came up with a precise deal! "Still telling us what to do even when we've left the EU!" etc. So the options were indicated in that graphic I linked to.

You're doing it again. Seeing things from the EU's point of view. How about getting behind the UK government so that we don't stay under the EU cosh?

Never mind that the WA was signed as is. That was then, now is now with no deal looming.

So a hard border with waits of up to 9 hours at the border?
Your claim that the EU presented a deal in 2016, is a complete and utter lie.

My Country, right or wrong - is that it?

Nice of you to tell us to forget the entire basis of BJ’s Election campaign...
