Today, as The Cabinet try to thrash out their differences at Chequers regarding what it is Britain wants from Brexit. A leaked memo yesterday was shown to be a bit premature, as several Brexiteers say that had not been agreed. Showing once again that if there is no agreement in Cabinet is not possible, then what chance is there to be an agreement of any kind with the EU, if half the Cabinet wouldn’t support any deal one way, the the other half the other way.
Madness, but par for the course.
It looks increasingly likely that other Global companies will relocate to Europe, the latest being Unilever who is deciding between London and Amsterdam for their new HQ.
And the House of Lords indicated today that it cannot support leaving Euratom, which is a surprise as it was in the A50 letter and that got passed. And apparently no one noticed that this could threated cancer treatment in a post-Brexit UK.
It is March next week and the phase 1 agreement has to be made into law, and each day Brexiteers realise what it means in terms of the Irish Border and if there is no agreement then the fallback position is, in effect, UK will abide by SM and CU rules, but having no input into any new rules. And this was seen as a triumph at the time, but some of us saw this fudge coming back to bite May on the bum.
I’m sure it’s all work out fine.
