Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Bruce Wayne]

Everyone hates the UK except Cummings, Johnson, Bannon and Pete FFS.

Don't forget Trump

The EU have signed the withdrawal agreement, just as the UK has, and it was the UK that brought this issue up again by saying they want to break that international agreement. You're being hoodwinked Pete. I try and side with the evidence before me, and I've quoted you verbatim from the withdrawal agreement listed on the government's website. It can't really be more clear, but because your government tell you the sky is pink you refuse to believe otherwise. That's not good.

Bruce, I expect that Parliament will throw it out anyway, unless of course the government has persuasive arguments to convince otherwise.....

Throw out something they not only voted for, but went to the country on the basis of in an election? Really? The 'will of the people' has been banged on about repeatedly during this debate, is that seemingly irrelevant now? The government won a whitewash, with "getting Brexit done" a key part of their campaign, which was based upon the withdrawal agreement Johnson got through parliament.

what Barnier is basically saying is that to import food into the EU then your food establishments must adhere to the regulations in 852 & 853/2004 and ensure compliance with 178/2002

Barnier can simply not delist a third country, that’s not how it works. It’s the same with any country that imports food in the EU, with the exception of New Zealand who have a equivalence agreement due to their standards being higher than most countries. As such they have ease of access when subject to SPS checks.

Thanks. But somehow I actually believe our negotiator when he says there was an explicit threat. No doubt it will all come out today in Parliament. I think there will be enough tories objecting to this bill anyway, but as I said to Bruce, the arguments may win the day......

We just have to wait and see I’m afraid....,

Wasn't he the bloke that thought proroguing parliament to prevent it debating the very withdrawal agreement we're talking about here was a fine and dandy thing to do?

Yep. So if even he is criticising...

 

[Hickson9]

Cameron now criticising the internal market bill, making that all five living, former Prime Ministers being against it.

Theresa May, David Cameron, Gordon Brown, Tony Blair and Sir John Major.

I think that’s your problem in this scenario Pete, you have no understanding of the rules and regulations

Geoffrey Cox on Times Radio here saying the Government should take legal steps, if the EU are threatening to accentuate the border, but what it can't do is break the law and go back on a solemn agreement, an agreement that was also ratified by Parliament.
