      Anyway it IS the deal the EU say they can live with so any bits that have not been changed by negotiation will just keep rolling over, can’t see why not. But no NEW dictates, no more of the MORE europe, we get to keep the status quo like the remainers say they want

        No it won’t keep rolling over just like that, there are end dates. The first was the article 50 timeout which we got an extension for, then another extension recently. Temporary emergency provisions had been put in place by the EU to keep things like planes flying if there were no deal. Note by the EU because as a 3rd party country we don’t get to decide if our planes can use their airspace, they do.

        IF the latest deal gets through Parliament the transition period agreed was 12 months. If Boris hasn’t got his all encompassing Free Trade deal by then it’s No Deal time, again. We will still be paying our dues in the transition period which Boris knows very well, that’s why the £1 billion for every month we delay is another lie (as is the sum mentioned). We will be paying it anyway, just like we will have to settle what we owe no matter what bluster you hear. If we don’t pay our debts and deliberately throw spanners in the works who is going to want to deal with us on decent terms?

        Only if the Lib Dems get in will Brexit be settled quickly as it will be revoked. We have years and years of this in front of us, which again Boris knows very well. The further we move away from Europe the longer it will take and the worse the deal will be.

          We don’t Have any debts to the EU Dave, just a few commitments that we will continue with anyway. The matter has been thoroughly investigated and if anything they owe US a share of joint assets. When was the last time you heard the EU say we might owe them anything ?

            The last time I remember the EU mentioning that we might owe them something is when we first voted to leave, it is a tactic they have used on other nations who voted to leave, then they looked into it and it has been stoney silence ever since.
