I'm not sure whether you understand what a trade deal is ?
We wouldn't be attaching ourselves to the US ecconomy, just arranging an agreement for two countries to trade with each other and we would haveto negotiate this dealt with mine and your favourite politician, Mr Trump.
With the quality of negotiations managed so far with the EU, who do you think would get the most out of any deal with the US, it certainly wouldn't be the UK.

Of course countries have prospered outside the EU, however, its worth noting that 4 of the current G7 are part of the EU, so, maybe, it's not such a bad trading bloc to be part of ?

I fully agree regarding empty shelves and medical supplies etc.

IF there is a "no deal" there will very likely be some disruption to supplies of certain commodoties but, I do believe that we are resourceful enough to overcome this quite quickly. Although, you wouldnt want to be desperate for anything in the first few days after the balloon went up.

So another minister bites the dust, dear old JoJo has gone the same way as his brother, citing the Chequers deal will inflict untold damage to the nation.

At least he admits the promises from the "Leave" group were just pie in the sky & the country deserves a second vote on the whole debacle.

The cynic in me believes it's all part of the plan to inflict a "No Deal" on the country & the sadist in me actually hopes it comes to pass!

Firstly growth has continued as it was under Obama, although the deficit has skyrocketed due to Trumps tax cut for the rich. Trump repeats the KKK slogan, America First, why would he give us anything, the US are not going to replace the EU.

Trump isn’t afraid of a fight you say, if that’s the case could you explain why he dodged been drafted into the Vietnam War 5 times?

You mean Cadet Bonespur, who *would* theoretically run unarmed towards an active shooter, but won't go out in the rain to honour fallen US soldiers?

Indeed, Trump is a bully not a fighter. There is a huge difference in these two traits.

It all seems to be going smoothly doesn't it?

Two down - more to go; there'll be a vote of no confidence by this time tomorrow.

If there's a vote of confidence in her and she loses who picks up the gauntlet? Plenty of Brexiters are happy to leave her in place to take the blame (Raab thinks she should stay!) but none want the responsibility themselves or know that they would be a lame duck just like May because the party is irrevocably split.

We're doomed.

What an awful mess.
Way back in Brexit (part 1) I said that NOBODY would get what they wanted from this and Mrs May has certainly made sure of that.
We either needed to go hard or stay in the customs union but, it trying to keep her party "together", we look like signing up to the worst of both worlds (still paying in, no say in policy and unable to make our own deals outside the EU), how much worse could it actually be.

Don't forget. Strong & stable.

Couple more resignations today - vote of no confidence before tea.

The only sensible course of action now is a GE - this lot are a busted flush.
