Will May do a U - Turn over Brexit after the local Elections? - Brexit Update 2 - Post Brexit

Guardian: Reports " Rotterdam reveals Brexit fears over port capacity – but says Dover has it worse....Dutch delay spending on new port facilities amid hope of British U-turn on customs union  " 

Lets Get Real:

After the Local Elections in England it can be postulated that PM May will do a u - turn over the UK staying in the Customs Union, the Country would have showed by voting Labour or the Liberal Democrats that the UK should stay in the customs union, even the single market, but the problem with the single market is that Labour also wants out of the single market,  Jeremy Corbyn wants to take over large sectors of the UK economy, under the present rules he would not be allowed.  The PM has to be firm with the Conservative Party, threaten the hard Brexit MPs with a quick election, that the Conservative Party could lose.  Time for PM May to be tough. 

The PM and Brexit - Update - Post Brexit

Daily Mail: Reports " PM faces huge pressure from Brexiteers to DITCH ‘unworkable’ plan for customs partnership with EU ahead of Cabinet showdown next week  "

Lets Get Real:

PM May should stand up to her hard Brexit Ministers, the UK is better off in the Customs Union and the Single Market, only if the UK controls immigration, not the EU.   If the UK stays in the Customs Union it would allow UK goods to be exported and imported from within the EU with no tariffs ( taxes ).  Also it would solve the problem of Northern Ireland having  a border with the Irish Republic.  The UK would still be outside the EU, we would get our passports back, and we would still have to pay a divorce bill.   This blog does support the UK Government having control over its borders, that was the point of the Brexit vote. 

What are the North Koreans Up to ? - North Korean Update - The Korea problem

Sky News: Reports " Koreas agree on complete denuclearisation...The leaders agreed to rid the peninsula of nuclear weapons but did not provide specific measures on how to achieve the objective. "

Lets Get Real:

This blog will hold its judgement on the latest peace moves between North and South Korea, the World has seen North Korea break previous promises over its nuclear plans.  The North could be playing a shrewd game, it will want a lot to give up its nuclear weapons, even if the talks can get that far.   The North might want the US to remove its troops from South Korea and end its security agreement with South Korea and Japan, such moves are a no go area for the US.  The US has one aim, to remove the nuclear weapons of North Korea and to make sure that North Korea does not become a conventional threat to South Korea and Japan.   The next big event will be the Summit between the US and North Korea, the new US Secretary of State has just meet the North Korea leader, he went over as Director of the CIA, and is seen as a  hawk, as is the new National Security Adviser to President Trump.
