If it takes this long for Tories to negotiate deal with DUP...

Arlene is going to love the fact that you are ahead of the game and realise she is now the Glorious Leader, having usurped St Theresa.

I am not sure the North Korean despot will be as pleased. Though even he is less narcissistic than Trump.

... how long will it take to negotiate Brexit with EU?

I suppose UK has more in common with EU than DUP.

UK has more in common with IS than with the DUP.

The DUPING bible bashers drive a hard bargain...

There won't be any deal for days, maybe weeks or even months...

Whatever nonsense Mong-Bailey spouts, Corbyn and McDonnell know damned well that if they compromise on Brexit then most of the former UKIP voters they managed to gain at the election will desert them like a flock of starlings! And anyway, Corbyn in particular is not keen on freedom of movement because it undercuts wages for local workers.

And the Tories know the same about _their_ former UKIP supporters.

Once they're in, they're in...

Labour offers fair rules and
reasonable management of
migration. In trade negotiations
our priorities favour growth,
jobs and prosperity. We make no
apologies for putting these aims
before bogus immigration targets.

pretty clear I think

They'll manage undercutting with collective bargaining agreements and raising the minimum wage.

UKIP are a spent force
