Civil servants are meant to be totally impartial … but here’s what the former foreign office chief did in the aftermath of the EU vote pic.twitter.com/iyUzc5yOt0

Foolish thing to do, as it impairs his ability to appear to be impartial.

Happy Brexit Day!

Starmer To Reopen Brexit Negotiations

 

🚨 | BREAKING: Keir Starmer tells Sky News he will reopen Brexit negotiations as PM, but the UK must NOT rejoin the EU or single market

— Politics UK (@PolitlcsUK) May 17, 2023

Given that this is Starmer, you can rest assured that if he does become PM this will not occur.

UK Joins CPTPP

CPTPP with the addition of the UK will account for 16% of global GDP, this is the same as the EU. 

However, by 2050 the World Bank forecasts CPTPP will account for almost 25% of the global economy compared to the EU's 10%.

The remainers will of course not tell you that!

ERG WhatsApp Group Disbanded

NEW: it’s all kicking off in Tory land.

As admin, Minister Steve Baker is removing MPs one by one from the official ERG WhatsApp group saying Brexit is done so group is disbanding.

IDS accused him of being irrational shortly before he himself was kicked out.

Irony Klaxon - Cummings Supports The Windsor Agreement

 

Every Tory MP voting against today shd be asked: do you realise the ERG Bill CREATES POWERS FOR THE ECJ, & if you do why is this a good idea? (Clue: most don't realise) https://t.co/rdyUjRsy8r

The Windsor Framework

 

Credit where credit is due, Sunak has managed to come back with a deal that is palatable to most people.

Whether the DUP endorse it, or continue to avoid sitting in Stormont remains to be seen. 

However, the deal will not fall if they are the only opposition to it. Therefore if the deal goes through, the only means that Ulster will have to block any EU laws it doesn't like is via Stormont (which won't sit until the DUP come back to work!).

Deal To Be Announced...Probably

 

Sunak and VdL will allegedly announce the Brexit deal today, whether it survives a possible mauling by the ERG and DUP remains to be seen!

The On Again, Off Again Brexit Deal

Maybe this weekend, according to rumours Sunak will tell his cabinet that there will be a deal announced on Monday.

Then again, maybe not!

Don't hold your breath, as it all depends on the DUP.

Tools!

Progress on NI Talks

NEW: The EU will accept the principle that GB goods shipped to NI and staying there should be treated differently to goods moving south into the single market and as such will agree to a green and red lane model at ports, as proposed by the UK, a senior EU official tells @rtenews

— Tony Connelly (@tconnellyRTE) February 6, 2023

All of this will come to now't, if the DUP blow it out of the water!
