Could be worse => victory for Boris.

I'll be interesting to see what's in the deal, other than no tariffs and fishing stuff...
How about research partnership, medical cover, how about exchanging driving licence if you move to the EU or to the UK from the EU? Basically all those advantages of the membership we had before...left the forum March 20230 -
Well we already know it won't be a bad deal because no deal is better than a bad deal remember so I'm predicting we've negotiated all previous right in return for a few fish. Either that or Farage will be crawling back from under his slime covered rock using words like traitor a lot.0

Boris waffling on about how alike are to the EU, how close and similar we are, and how we will have free trade with them.

Shame for the Erasmus scheme. On the plus side, looks like we are still going to be part of the European Research Council, which is vital to research and innovation... in fairness, lots of non EU countries are part of it... Israel to name oneleft the forum March 20230

BJ just announced Erasmus funding will be redirected to a worldwide scheme to send students abroad... we'll see how that pans outleft the forum March 20230

The Turing programme sounds like a good idea. I would have really liked that.0

May be worth finding out what's in the deal?
Anyway, better late than never and you've still got 7 days left to enjoy. This seems to be strangely appropriate in terms of band name, song title and opening lyrics:

Sounds like the EU won the fishing quota although it is not clear what will happen in 5.5 years.0

Also, anyone who liked Brexit as way to have higher standards will be pleased.0

In 5.5 years it is very likely fish consumption will be much lower... it's quickly going out of fashion among the younger more environment conscious individuals... we have pretty much given up eating fish... we maybe had it a handful of times in 2020.TheBigBean said:Sounds like the EU won the fishing quota although it is not clear what will happen in 5.5 years.

Unless you have replaced all that fish with seasonal fruit and veg with low travel miles then you won't be doing the planet a favour. This is the problem with the environmentally conscious. They appear blindsided to the cost of food production they can't see.ugo.santalucia said:

"The Office for Budget Responsibility, which is the government’s independent economic forecaster, expects that with a free trade deal, the UK economy will be about 4% smaller in 15 years than it would have been had the UK stayed in the EU."
The European Commission too states that the “EU and UK will form two separate markets, two distinct regulatory and legal spaces. This will create barriers to trade in goods and services.”
"And extra barriers equals extra costs; the extra admin alone, the tax office says could cost British business £7.5bn."0
