So, that was the Halloween Brexit that wasn't. I guess it's a Sylvester Brexit then? I'm starting to doubt if they're evet going to find the exit.

Nice that the Commission is refusing to talk this weekend. It takes away the chances of the British government claiming there is progress being made.

Seems like we're witnessing a complete break down in the talks.

Today the answer to that is less pressing than the answer to the question if that crunching sound was the DUP going under the bus.
Brexit vaut bien une messe, apparently. Brexit for Britain. Brexit in name only for Northern Ireland (Nino?)
Congratulations America
Actually sounds like the noise was the fudge factory cranking up into overdrive. Classic last minute fudge being produced right now, looks DUP will have a pretty sweet plate of fudge to consume - effectively inside BOTH the EU customs union/market and inside the UK's too - getting the best of both worlds. Which is pretty much exactly the formula used for the GFA too.
If so, its a sound deal that completely respects the GFA. NI will be simultaneously out and in the EU.
Erm, yeah, no. There's no such thing as a Schrödinger Border.

I see. You know the commitments of the GFA make that impossible don't you? Or is it just one of the effects of Brexit you weren't aware of? Like not knowing that leaving the EU means you're not in the EU any longer? Because it seems you Brexiteers have got a big problem with that basic one already. And then you demand not to be called dimwitted.
Congratulations America
You can't seriously expect anyone to fall for that cheap trick. The GFA is a peace treaty based in the obligations of both the UK and the Republic of Ireland. The RoI accepted British sovereignty in exchange for a solemn promise of the UK not to frustrate a development towards a United Ireland. Brexit without an agreement or provisions seeing to that is illegal. The obligations of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland are not the sane under the peace treaty.
What is most worrying about Brexit that you Brexitards don't get that leaving the European Union the way you envisage will not only make agreement with the EU for the future near impossible but it will also show all of the world you don't actually feel bound by your promises.
Basically you're setting yourselves up for pariah status. And the problem I have with that is that it makes you a real security risk.

There is neither an end state nor progression, that is not what the GFA says. The GFA says that if the voters want a United Ireland they can vote for it and all parties respect that. There is no pressure or momentum or prejudice towards that - it is taken out of our hands, out of Ireland's hands, and is in the hands of the voters.
Lying by omission is still lying, RB.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
So, effectively, a border down the Irish Sea. How completely unsurprising to anyone who actually understood how to square the GFA with Brexit.
That is, if he can secure the votes. As we've seen, that's a proposition I myself wouldn't take any wager on.

Parliament is the basis of your democracy. It's amazing how quickly you and Lewk turned on the institutions that keep your countries from descending into strongman rule.
Hope is the denial of reality
