Do you have a problem with Indian citizens coming to the U.K. ?.....

As much or little as any other, the country origin of the flood gates opening does not bother me in the least.

India was just an example of what nonsenses 'Sovereignty' is about when it comes to the reality of 'free trade deals'.

Also, there is factual evidence as Modi is on the record on wanting free movement for his citizens into the UK in exchange for free trade deal.

India has some very strict laws on taking money made in investments /property profits out of the country, a few years a go it was something like £15,000 a year, while the present government is in charge in India I would expect them not to let us have a comprehensive deal in place, might get one on arms as they are building their forces up think the yanks and French have just done big deals and a few other things, we wanted access to their financial markets they have said they want access to more student places in past talks with the UK, don't blame them really as the number of so-called doctors they have over there is scandalous, not nearly enough and plenty with bogus or bought credentials that make the numbers worse in reality.

US doesn't want guarded border on Ireland - Biden

The president-elect has previously said Brexit must not endanger the Good Friday Agreement.

Any bets on the border ending up in the North Sea?

Did you mean the Irish Sea, or are you suggesting that the U.K. and ROI will have another border with the EU in the North Sea and the English Channel......

Hope the yanks want the same for there border with Mexico, after all, Mexicans were formally in charge of new Mexico, ect and the Mexican (Catholic)population of those states will soon make them the majority of the population , so if Biden isnt being hypocrite he should give them the right to join a united Mexico.
Are we to expect no guards on the border there anytime soon?
Surely Boris should be expecting Biden to do as he wants us to do.

That should happen. The wall is an absurdity.

It will happen years after his departure (Johnson has been a useful idiot for the taxdodgers, for ramming some sort of Brexit through by force of personality this last year) but he should forever be tarred as the PM that broke the Union - the hard border down the Irish sea, which his 'deal' negotiated, will see NI inevitably drawn towards Dublin now. Sectarian issues notwihstanding, economic pressure will force the issue.

He's also near-singlehandedly taken a wrecking ball to any hopes of avoiding Scottish independence via both Brexit and his obvious contempt for the Scottish parliament. Support is now consistent for it and an SNP majority next year will be hard to argue against.

Wales isn't lost yet but once the other two start to move away, will the Welsh want a future as England's sidecar? Apparently there's been an uptick in support for independence there (though it's still in the minority). Could that accelerate in the decade to come?

Just like every other job role he's failed at, we'll soon be able to toss 'Minister for the Union' onto the flaming yet massively profitable wreckage of Johnson's 'career'.

But he's "funny and jolly" isn't he??

Ireland could lose out as France lays claim to most of €5bn Brexit compensation fund (irishtimes.com)

When does the UK compensation fund kick in for the UK businesses and industries that have lost out from Brexit?

Pandemic has been a wet dream for Brexiteers. They'll hide the disaster of it under the pandemic.

Never let them lie and remember that we're going to be approx. 3% of GDP worse off because of this joke.
