Daily Mail: Reports " How Macron's backstop blackmail sabotaged May's deal: JACK DOYLE on the French President's hand grenade that sparked two weeks of chaos and destroyed May's hopes of a pre-Christmas crunch vote "
Lets Get Real:
It is typical of the French to stab in the UK in the back, you can not trust them in front of you or at your back. The French President in attempt to cover his own backside wants the UK to allow French fishermen to have the same access to UK waters as they have now, otherwise the French would have kept the UK in the backstop till the end of time. The UK PM has to be CLEAR with the French and Spain that the UK will not be blackmailed, we have gone through tough times before, and we always win, can Europe cope without our billions, and free access of EU citizens to the UK, the UK has to be tough, politics is a dirty business, winning is what counts, coming 2nd does not get you a prize. ONE can only hope that the UK PM will be tough, would Churchill or Thatcher be so weak with the EU?
