Just shows that BoJos job is more secure than TMays was. Labour leader is voting it through because it’s marginally better than a no deal, not because it’s a good deal.

I don't think folks understand what great means, because this isn't it. We've gone from "they'll be begging is for a deal" to being poorer and with fewer rights.

No one would go into a salary negotiation, come out with a paycut, then call it a great deal. The folly of accepting 4th best in exchange for mythical sovereignty that this deal doesn't achieve.

To be fair, they probably would if they had demanded a pay rise in a huff and then gone into the meeting expecting to be fired.

The May deal was pretty much going to tie us to all the EU rules and regs so it is completely different to anything May came up with

Its a trade deal, that's what people are failing to grasp. In itself its ok. Boris never set out to have integration with the EU, that's why we left. We voted not to be part of the united states of europe and that's what we now have. Also, lets not kid ourselves, both sides were desperate to have a deal, thats why drop dead dates were continuously revised. I voted remain, but I am completely fed up with the whole thing now. We have a baseline that is not as catastrophic as it could have been and future governments are free to negotiate revised terms as and when they want

"Not as catastrophic as it could have been" doesn't work quite as well on the side of a bus. The greatest con ever pulled on the nation, that will cost us for decades to come until we rejoin..

Honestly as a remainer I think we just need to move on now, it’s done and can probably be undone in a few years, feels pretty pointless to argue about it, the grass was greener for 52% and I am sure for some it will be, there will be winners and losers in this brave be world

Bojo is off to India in the NY I would say free movement of people might be on the cards in any trade deal

since the 1970's it's been pretty much a 50/50 split with the common market onward, so it's anything but a con, people just got the opportunity to express what they wanted. It has never been any different. Like I said, i wanted to remain, but i'm not unhappy with the deal as it is now

Best not mention buses in a thread about Brexit.
