People either want a compromise or not though Sick boy. Sounds like this is about future divergence which is understandable ie if our standards greatly diverge and this has a material affect on our companies competitiveness over EU companies in certain sectors some kind of tariffs can be...

Kind of irrelevant if you can’t see where the EU boats are. We have quotas so can only catch limited quantities of fish in our waters. There should be a deal to be done which agrees continued access for the EU boats in our waters and vice versa. Just not the status quo which is what the French...

Both have moved on level playing field (rumours that Merkel maybe had a word to shift the EUs position away for automatic ratchet clause which Barnier/Macron previously wanted) It looks like it’s down to the mechanism and adjudicator on LPF (as we all were aluding to on Saturday) as the main...

I don’t think he’s a lone front man, looks far more effective in a two

Comedy kelly ! Hope his injury isn’t too bad. He’s so vital to us (albeit not usually for his goalscoring !!!)

Kelly you beauty !!!

Just stumbled across the AJ v Klitschko fight again on sky. What a fight. The roar of the crowd in the 11th...made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Cone on AJ !!!

Yeah, can’t get too excited about undercard. Will be watching Manc derby and recording to watch later probably. Okolie is worth a watch as he could kick on to bigger things in not too distant future. Not pretty to watch when I’ve seen him fight but strong. He was due to fight for world cruiser...

Pulev looked very confident. Weigh in was lively. Hoping and still think AJ wins but could be tricky ps decent odds at almost 10s for Pulev KO on Betfair

yeah, that’s crazy talk, a no deal is not good for us or our negotiating position with EU in future or other nations. Don’t doubt there isn’t huge pressure from certain EU countries and their manufacturers to get a deal as well though. Whether it’s enough to outweigh the ideological views/stance...

We’ve agreed non regression clauses though which I think is correct. By the sounds of it we’ll be ahead on environmental standards in the coming years and my understanding is we’re pretty good on employment rights (min wage etc) compared to many EU nations. It is purely down to control. Should...

I agree. Think I said something similar in a response to a reply to shmmeee. Reading between lines it’s the ‘punishment’ mechanism and who decides which appears to be the sticking points

Youre right Clint, fishing irrelevant in relation to GDP on both sides. However, Macron is shitting it because of an election in 18 months so wants to look tough and Johnson needs to keep the ERG/total sovereignty at all costs lot happy. It’s a principle point on both sides If that’s the only...

Yeah, unfortunately it feels like those that managed better in the first wave are being hit harder in the second (Saw even Germany had almost 30k cases and 600 deaths yesterday). Guess it’s a combination of a few things....maybe some community immunity, weather (ie more indoors), lack of ability...

I’ll keep it clean (some of the filth I receive may cause offence)...

Seen these types of stats before wingy. Frightening. To be fair some will be work related (ie can’t afford to self isolate) but they’ll be plenty of others that won’t be. I just hope they at least steered clear of elderly and higher risk It’s why the track and trace stuff is pretty futile ! I...

Sorry, i was just making a flippant/light hearted comment about you reading Tory media...couldn’t resist, it’s the child in me

This is spot on Shmmeee and there some noises yesterday which gave me hope that this could be resolved with some political will. It will be the mechanism for ‘punishment’ for divergence which is the tricky bit. Hopefully they can agree edit- the below is plus VDLs comments yesterday is what...

Good to hear you’re reading a variety of media Clint 😉 I know I’m preaching to the converted but its obviously not all the EUs fault...it’s been a shambles of a negotiation for the past 4 years with both sides at fault. The free trade deal is (should be) doable, we’re already aligned terms of...
