15th of October EU Day - Brexit Update 3 - Transitional Phase

Yahoo!: Reports via Bloomberg the following, " U.K. Plans to Quit Brexit Talks If No Deal Clear Next Week "

Lets Get Real:

Our PM has to be firm about the 15th of October deadline, he has to be careful that he is not being played by the EU, the diplomatic core in Brussels thinks the UK is bluffing, the UK has to make them aware we might be Mad Dogs and English Men ( Welsh I prefer ) but when we are serious we are serious, we are not bluffing, either we have the ground work for a deal or the UK is OUT.   The EU has played this game to many times, and always the other Countries submit, not this time.  Our cards are on the table, its our way or the high way, and we take out fish with us, OUR WATERS, OUR FISH. 

POTUS BACK in the Oval - US Presidential Election

Daily Mail: Reports " BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump walks back into the Oval Office despite STILL being at risk of spreading coronavirus - with a nurse outside and doctors warning he is BREAKING CDC quarantine rules "

Lets Get Real:

One gets the impression that TRUMP has just give up and he is going to take the White House DOWN WITH HIM, he is breaking COVID - 19 rules and is under the impression that he is immune NOW, that is WRONG, the virus comes and goes and you can get the disease again.  Tonight we see the VP debates, VP Pence verses Senator Harris.  The VP must KNOW that the fight is over, and he will be setting out his store for 2024 and his own run for the White House, while Harris has to give the impression that she can take over from Biden should he lose it sometime during his first term.  Thus in many respects we are seeing the future leaders of the US, one hopes it is a better debate than the one between Trump and Biden.

A Brexit Deal? - Brexit Update 2 - Transitional Phase

Sky News: Reports " Michael Gove says chance EU trade deal will be struck about 66%...A Whitehall source tells Sky News "there has been a little bit of progress" on one of the key stumbling blocks. "

Lets Get Real:

As Sky News is just after BBC News when it comes to REMAIN CENTRAL, one has to careful that they over reading something they want, that is the same with the BBC, if by next week it is clear that there can be NO DEAL, expect the BBC and Sky to blame the UK Government, that is their default position.  That is why a new 24/7 news channel welcome.   Of course if there can be an agreement with the EU, that is good, it would help with COVID - 19 but not at any cost.  The UK after December 31st can start to do new trade deals around the World.   The US will be difficult, with Biden in the White House the Oval with look to the Republic of Ireland for its default position.  Brexit NEVER gets boring!!

All in, What are your cards? - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase

BBC News: Reports " 'Put cards on table' over trade deal, says EU "

Lets Get Real:

If you keep up with the BREXIT NEWS, either we are darn close to a DEAL or the PM is about to walk away.   The PM has set a 15th of October deadline for either a deal or the UK walks.  The PM has to be careful that the EU is not playing him, keeping him in talks as a way to get a better deal at the end.   If by the 15th talks are going nowhere, the PM should walk, treat the EU as it has treated the UK for years if not decades.   If the problem is FISH, then the PM can not grant to many concessions, otherwise it will look a sell out to the EU.  The economic damage done by COVID - 19 can not be as BAD as a NO DEAL BREXIT, the UK is always strong by itself, its a position we have been before.
