Brexit - Phase 1 of the Divorce Agreement - Brexit Deal

BBC News: Reports " PM Theresa May has struck a last-minute deal with the EU in a bid to move Brexit talks on to the next phase.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus phase 1 of the Brexit Deal has been achieved by the PM, the tone from Brexit supporters in the Cabinet is good, the monies to be given to the EU is down on published reports, the article states it is between 35 - 40 billion pounds, down from a 100 billion, and there is no border between Northern Ireland and Ireland.   The rights of UK Citizens and EU is protected.   If there is no deal after the year of talks for the Brexit date then the UK will follow the EU closely, but that is down for discussion in phase 2. 

Thus in phase 2 we come to trade talks and the final divorce bill and how long the UK follows the European Courts while the UK is in transition.   If there is no deal then the UK will follow the EU closely.   The Shadow Brexit Secretary was very clear, it is in phase 2 that we get the final agreements on the above, thus the importance of getting to phase 2.   It will be interesting to see the tone of the left and right as the day unfolds.
