How do you think every trade deal in history ends up as? By definition, any deal is a compromise. "Q" might lean towards one side or the other, or it might be perfectly balanced between what either side initially asked for, but it is still a compromise.

Also by definition, if both sides agree to it then "Q" is what both sides want as the compromise position - in a balanced and adult room of people. I'm not counting when the UK is involved in negotiations, obviously, because "Exceptionalism".

No but if that is what we get, that is what we get.

It would be nice if the EU acted like a proper grown up and not a spoiled child but you know such is life.
