    That would be the previous Govt.

    So? The WA is dead, and they know it. If the new government proposes a deal that they believe will pass and that they believe is better for them than no deal, they'll take it. If not, they won't. It doesn't matter what Theresa May did or did not agree to.

    It's going to be no deal, new deal, or no Brexit.

    My money is on no deal with Boris withholding large parts of that £39 billion, followed in the coming months by a new deal or deals which also involve him releasing most or all of the rest of it. They need the money, he needs a Brexit that is clear enough to neuter the Farage threat but not drastic enough to totally enrage all remainers. So that's what is likely.

    Yeah he did a great job last time. Negotiate a deal and then vote against it

    Look forward to that.

    It's not taken you this long to deduce that he doesn't have a clue what he means, surely.
