    Substantial negotiations with the EU, earliest end of 2017

    Interesting due to the German and French elections the earliest that substantial negotiations will begin is at the end of 2017.

    ....an interesting challenge for Mrs May.


    But last week they said Brexit would not be kicked into the long grass. One week later they drop kicked it into the Amazon.

      Have you even read the article? Do you know who said what? Maybe you should find out before posting.

        In other news, senior German lawmaker wants market access for UK even with immigration restrictions. No doubt Juncker will already have been on the phone to him telling him he's off message.

          Why should he start now?

            His idea involves the UK (and other countries in the new "3rd circle partnership") paying for access to the EU single market, although free movement is curtailed.
            Just interested to know if Brexiters here would think that's a good option?
            Hard Brexit now!

                  If they have access to the single market (free movement of goods, services and capital) as the German politician is suggesting not only will the UK be paying it will also have to abide by EU law.

                  The only thing they would have is "some control over immigration" probably something along the lines of privileged access, i.e. you have a job offer you're in.

                  i.e. defacto member of the EU but with a few "sops" over immigration, i.e. this is the Norway solution with a few "bones" thrown to the Brits because they're so big.


                  This is where it is going.

                  I'm alright Jack

                      Do we get a rebate with that?

                      It would have to be less than our current nett payment, assuming the Germans wanted to sell us tariff free goods.

                      Not interested in rebates etc. as we don't decide where they go.
