UK interference in EU

[meridian]

Bear in mind that whilst passporting means that UK firms can provide financial services to the rest of the EU, it also means the rest of the EU can provide financial services in the UK. And in fact there are more rest of EU firms providing financial services in the UK than UK firms providing to the EU.

So... For sure, if we have to pay for this continued right, then surely the EU has to pay us for EU firms to provide financial services in the UK?

Possibly. The UK can deduct it off the Gross amount, and call it a "rebate" or something....

Jesus and he calls The Netherlands, Holland, that is not going down very well with the Dutch either.

Well of course that is a real cardinal sin.

Britain to pay indefinitely into the EU

Great move by the EU. The Swiss style deal is well on its way.

I think we should erect some huge electronic billboards all around the UK showing how much the UK contributes per week to the EU after Brexit.

Or you could take an advert out on the side of a bus?

I doubt it, he’s touring with Davis, who thinks he can do a deal with Czechoslovakia...

Jesus and he calls The Netherlands, Holland, that is not going down very well with the Dutch either. In fact the Dutch PM (who May thought would be on her side) already declared to be 100% behind Michel Barnier in a tweet yesterday

I wonder if Hammond realises that he is meant to be dealing with the EU and not governments...

They’ve told you, Hammond - Canada, no plus plus, no services. And it’s up to your government to sort out how NI works, otherwise you get to keep regulatory alignment with the EU anyway.

Philip Hammond has accused European Union governments of failing to set out what future relationship they want with Britain, saying during a speech in Germany that “it takes two to tango.”

At a conference in Berlin hosted by the newspaper Die Welt, the chancellor said negotiating partners have given “little, if any signal”, of how they want to work with Britain after the “implementation period” that will start in March 2019.

“They say it takes two to tango. Both sides need to be clear about what they want from a future relationship,” he said.

Davis is in Germany, asking for Financial services to remain in the UK.

He wants Germany to ease the rules on the single market. The same single market that Brexiters claim Germany controls (it doesn't). The same Germany that will benefit out of financial jobs moving to Frankfurt...

Brexit means Brexit, doesn't it?

I agree completely. Quite astonishing.

Disgraceful the UK is trying to interfere in the EU post Brexit. I was fed up with the EU telling the UK about consequences after divorce. I thought the UK was above this?
