I thought you might have lowered it a bit by now, but you stayed true to May's deal until the end, so there is precedent.tailwindhome said:90%

Over 4yrs after the vote and a few weeks before the crucial deadline and he still doesn't even understand the rules of the game he is playing.0

Boris’s blurting and dishonesty have obviously wound up the EU but do we think this affected the outcome at all?0

On account of wholesalers have got stock tied and cant get it here. Not enough lorries, containers stuck everywhere and brexit fears.surrey_commuter said:

No. See Yanis Varoufakis and the Swedish national anthem. The main point is that it doesn't matter what is said or done, you will be ignored, and presented with something else as take it or leave it.surrey_commuter said:Boris’s blurting and dishonesty have obviously wound up the EU but do we think this affected the outcome at all?

No it has not much to the annoyance of the Boris bashers. Trade deals don't rise or fall on the face of one person. They have mainly been dealing with Frost and to my mind he has been pretty level headed and measured in his conduct. If anything Barnier has been the more provocative negotiator.surrey_commuter said:Boris’s blurting and dishonesty have obviously wound up the EU but do we think this affected the outcome at all?

Yes, but Varoufakis' point still stands. If you are going to say you're walking out with no deal if the deal is unconscionable, you've got to actually believe it. Tsipras never did. I'm not convinced Johnson does.Stevo_666 said:

I'm not sure. Does the blurting and dishonesty include the internal markets bill? I think that had an effect on how much faith they might have in the UK.john80 said:

His talk, no. They know him as well as the rest of us, and know he's not there forever.0 -
I suspect they haven't helped. But it's not like a more measured, honest character as PM would be able to convince the EU to split the SM up, which, is really what we are aiming for here.surrey_commuter said:Boris’s blurting and dishonesty have obviously wound up the EU but do we think this affected the outcome at all?

Deep down I still think we’re being softened up for a weak deal.
Any deal is better than no deal right now.
After all, these things will be renegotiated forever0 -

At the moment we are negotiating down on what we already have, if they let us walk we will see what we are missing and negotiate up.rick_chasey said:Deep down I still think we’re being softened up for a weak deal.

Yes, if it does come to a full on crash out then lots of deals will be done on the quiet when the British press are no longer looking in the months ahead in the new year.surrey_commuter said:
