BREXIT: will we get a deal?

[d000hg]

Forgive the foray into General but it seemed a big enough story (if mods are OK) to post this poll. Whether it's a deal in name only or something decent... do you think something will be agreed in these final talks or are they just going through the motions?

Indeed there will be one. If Boris heads off to Brussels it means he wants his Chamberlain moment.
Once the betrayal is signed and sealed, civil war will break out in the Tory Party and Nigel Farage will set up yet another new political party.

The outrage because the UK will be forced "at gun point" to follow EU rules and not least the appearance of huge EU factory trawlers in UK waters will provide fodder for tabloid newspapers for many years to come.

The UK holds all the cards.

There won't be any kind of deal, it was obvious from day one. If you exit a club you can't just rock up and try and get member privileges.

What they are currently engaged in is to make it appear that efforts were made to strike a deal. For the ERG, a no deal is the only outcome that is acceptable.

For all the people who push for no deal, there is nothing to lose and a lot to gain. A small group of selfish idiots are trying to ruin the livelihood of millions.

T. A small group of selfish idiots are trying to ruin the livelihood of millions.

A group including Corbyn and his cronies

Corbyn never angled for a no deal. What are you smoking these days?

The tricky cans will be kicked down the road, e.g. there'll be short-term deals on fishing rights and state aid etc. It'll be a sort of extended transition, but won't be called such.

NAT is supposed to be on duty, but he's busy trying on his Goldilocks wig, and living the dream...
