EU President to meet King Charles - After Brexit/After Boris

BBC News ( TV ) reports that the EU President is to meet King Charles after Brexit talks with PM.

Let's Get Real:

The PM wants to use the King's meeting as to show Royal Approval for the new BREXIT DEAL, thus place pressure on the DUP and the ERG.  It has been reported by Buckingham Palace that the meeting is at the request of the Government.  Thus is a wise move by the King, in case Sunak has produced a dud.   As Sky News reports the PM will give a speech to the House of Commons at 6.30pm, it will be interesting to see the atmosphere of the House, the devil is in the details.

EU talks down DEAL on NORTHERN IRELAND PROTOCOL - After Brexit/After Boris

Brexit forever!

BBC News: Reports " NI Protocol: EU talks down reports of compromise deal on European court.....Officials in Brussels have dismissed fresh claims of a compromise deal on the European Court of Justice's (ECJ) role in the Northern Ireland Protocol.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is has been officially denied that there is a DEAL on the protocol, thus that means that a DEAL is close, you always KNOW something is true when it has been denied ( Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister ).  The real question is will the ERG in the House of Commons accept the new deal, they are lead by the DUP from Northern Ireland.  Any new DEAL must allow the transfer of goods from mainland to the province with no custom checks, that seems to have been agreed, while goods going to the Republic will have to go through the normal customs process in a different lane.  Thus will DUP accept a WIN, the UK gives role for the European Court if requested by North Ireland Judges, that seems like a good deal for the DUP, the question will they take YES as answer.  Thus it makes sure the province is part of the UK, but also the benefits of being in the EU.  The BIG QUESTION is will the DUP agree to go back in to Government, if they say YES, then the Biden Oval will be happy to visit to on the anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, if they refuse, the Biden will not come, a pit pointless.  Also the Biden Oval should keep out of the process, the Biden Oval is seen as to pro Republic also their special advisor, from the Kennedy clan, so that would not be a good idea.   It will be an interesting few days!!

Resumption of UK/EU talks - Part 2 - Brexit Update 2 - Transitional Phase

Sky News: Reports " Brexit trade talks back on after EU says both sides must compromise.. Number 10 says Mr Barnier's speech represents a "fundamental" shift in approach from Brussels.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is one of the HARDEST words in the English Language, COMPROMISE, it depends how far the EU expect the UK to compromise, the PM can not compromise over UK FISH IN UK WATERS, that would be seen as throwing the UK fisherman under the bus for the benefit of the French, on State support for business, that is more of middle ground issue, an agreement would STOP any future LABOUR Government from taking over large areas of the UK economy and also keep a check on the EU countries doing the same.  As to UK fish, how much of a cut can the French President take before it becomes a political problem for him, also will the cut in concessions but done over a gradual time.  Also the PM can not agree to the ECJ being the final judge on the issue, the ECJ in not popular in the UK. 

IF a UK/EU Deal, what are we giving away? - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase

Mail on Sunday: Reports " Britain 'will win 60 per cent of its objectives in an EU trade deal', negotiator David Frost tells Tory MPs amid fears of deadlock  "

Lets Get Real:

This blog has concerns, what is the 60% we are winning and as the article notes, what is the 40% we are giving away to the EU.  The Mail has gone from a BREXIT paper under its previous Editor to a pro Remain paper.   Any new DEAL, has to keep UK FISH a UK matter, the same goes for support for companies, that might hinder the EU.  One hopes that Conservative MPs wont buckle and pass a deal that is the UK leaving the EU in name only.  Boris Johnson won a great victory in 2019 by promising to get Brexit done, well this is his time.   Of course the UK Government has to deal with COVID - 19, but that can not be used as a way to keep the UK linked to the EU, faint hear never won a victory, this is the time to go for a WIN.  The UK a sovereign nation again.
