I've been saying since the GE the Ireland situation is insoluble with the present parliamentary composition. I've been proved right and it is still the biggest obstacle to the WA. That's why I'm not as optimistic as Gloom. I just can't see any way past it. Listen, you said she’d agreed to a border down the Irish Sea. She hasn’t. As for your waffle about the fudge fudge in December, I suggest you re-read the 3 paragraphs on the backstop as she doesn’t agree to it there either. As for your last point, we haven’t had the vote yet so you haven’t been proved right on that either. I suggest a couple of paracetamol and an early night x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually says in the link “a no deal Brexit would be disasterous”. Extra tarrifs would be their red line. Quote Although a similar UK-Canada arrangement "would allow tariff-free trade, it would still involve border checks - and would upset the just-in-time delivery model used by the company in Europe", he said. Quote Mr Armstrong has made it clear he thinks a "Canada-style deal" with the EU will not cut the mustard either. This is a proposal favoured by many opponents of the prime minister's plans - a free trade deal modelled on the one the EU already has with Canada, with some extra benefits added on. The concern for Ford is that while such a deal might allow products to cross borders without tariffs being applied, it would still involve customs checks. That's not a major problem when you're sending cars and parts across the Atlantic - immediacy isn't necessary. But within Europe, manufacturers rely on "just-in-time" delivery, with fleets of lorries carrying parts from across the continent exactly when they are needed. Even minor delays at customs would upset this model. The industry wants "frictionless" trade, with no border checks at all You've got to learn to read past the headline tubs.

Alex 34838 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Love the notion that having to adhere to the result of a plebiscite forever is democratic. Even better when the example to support that is a general election, which takes place roughly every four years. CT at his unwitting best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
