Brexit deja vu. Again

And so with the second, and more complicated phase of Brexit about to begin, the Government has decided to give a huge amount of leverage to the other side by insisting that there will be no extension to the transition.

Allrighty says the EU, if that's your plan, this is the timetable we are insisting on to ensure the most critical issues get discussed first.

The first of which is a "basic" FTA.

Meanwhile, Johnson's Government has been rowing back on promises on citizen's rights. Unchecked by Parliament which is to be pretty much sidlined through the whole Brexit porcess and even voting on the final FTA id there is one.

There is almost no scrutiny, no oversight, and lots of lying and bullshit.

Business is already starting to panic. And its not begun yet.

Newsflash: This just in. The Commons has passed the WAB's 3rd reading, so now goes to the Lords for debate. Those 331 who voted for it today will own the chaos.
