EU negotiators agreed the location to sign Brexit deal - forest of Compiègne

As we are surrendering then probably a nice soft french Brie would be the most appropriate.

I am afraid that we British are not terribly adept at the whole "surrender" thingy

There is first time for everything.

Britain is surrendering hundreds of years of European policy which was designed to ensure France never works closely with Germany, being in EU was continuation of that successful policy in the time when another continental war would have been suicidal.

All that surrendered.

The whole point of joining was to prevent such domination, withdrawing enables French and Germans achieve the goal!

It's not a defeat - it's a surrender.

EU diplomats have hit out at Britain’s failure to agree it must pay a hefty financial settlement for Brexit, suggesting the controversy will “stall” the talks.
