Is PM Boris selling out our fishermen ? - Brexit Update 3 - Transitional Phase

Guardian: Reports " According to EU sources, the British demand for a 60% reduction in the catch by value in British waters had been reduced to 35%, far closer to the 25% reduction that Frost’s EU counterpart, Michel Barnier, had said he would be prepared to accept. "

Lets Get Real:

If the above is TRUE, then Boris is selling out the UK fishermen, this is Ted Heath all over again.  The ERG should be on to No 10 to tell them they will oppose ANY SELLOUT, the French are using the COVID - 19 crisis as a reason to play the bully boy or BAD COP.  The UK side has to be FIRM, UK waters and fish are the sovereign section of the UK not up for debate or talks.  This is why the delegations are talking, the UK might just be selling the UK out.  It is time for Brexit supporters to phone, email, text your MP and get him or her to oppose any sell out of the UK.  We shall see if No 10 rejects the story.  

Are the French playing HARDBALL over Brexit ? - Brexit Update 2 - Transitional Phase

Daily Mail: Reports " Downing Street categorically rules out extending the post-Brexit transition period and slaps down claims that France closed the border to force the UK to agree to a bad trade deal "

Lets Get Real:

Why the UK is being nice about French God only knows, they would not be if the shoe was on the other foot.  The UK/EU Delegation have been talking for DAYS, what an earth are they talking about, they just going through the same issues, over and over again.  There were reports that the PM would decide by Christmas if the talks were to carry on, well its getting close to a deadline, the PM must make his mind up, DEAL OR NO DEAL, and just carry through with the decision.  The European Research Group as smelling that the No 10 will sell them out, thus they are very wary of Boris and his Cabinet.  They will need to keep the pressure on Boris, they put him there, they can also topple him if need be, time is precious.

COVID 19/02 ( Mutation ) - COVID 19 Update - Health/Economy

Sky News: Reports " COVID-19: More areas could go into Tier 4 as variant strain spreads, Sir Patrick Vallance suggests....The PM also casts some doubt over whether schools would return in January following the latest development in the pandemic. "

Lets Get Real:

The Prime Ministerial Q/A was a non event in public information terms, everyone KNOWS that the mutated virus is more dangerous, the French are milking the event, if this is not about FISH I will eat my HAT.  In that case the French have made a mistake, the UK Government has been planning for a NO DEAL BREXIT for months, thus they are aware of the traffic problems at the PORTS and what to do when it comes to a diversion of those trucks.  One does hope the French get off their backsides and allow lorries to get to Europe, it seems it most Europeans wanting to get home, they might even be French.  Typical French. 

Brexit Deadline is set for 31st December - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase

BBC News: Reports " The government has ruled out extending the deadline for reaching a post-Brexit trade deal into 2021, amid a deadlock in talks and a growing Covid crisis.  "

Lets Get Real:

At least the PM has not done a U - turn over the Brexit Deadline, the UK Government must know by NOW what is the likely outcome, the PM as his want, was sounding chipper about a NO DEAL BREXIT, while saying he wants an agreement.  That are the UK and EU delegations talking about, from TV footage, it looks like Lord Frost has not changed his shirt in days, not even a tie, he must be peeved at being stuck in Brussels, how is he and his delegation meant to get home for Christmas, if the Euro Train is barred from Europe. The RAF might need to go and get him, the talks could restart after Boxing Day, but if the sides can not agree on fish after ALL these hours talking, what is the point!  The UK side must be near Saints to put with these talks. 

COVID - 19 Latest - Health/Economy

Sky News: Reports " COVID-19: Major disruption expected at Kent ports after France bans all UK arrivals...Hauliers warn the border closure could be a "hammer blow" to an industry already impacted by the Christmas rush and Brexit. "

Lets Get Real:

If one was a cynic, this could be seen as a hardball tactic by the French, with the Brexit talks stalled, the French could be using the mutant virus scare to cause problems for the British Government.  Thus the UK Government should be FIRMER with the Paris, use their tactic against them, be even more stubborn on Brexit, and park lorries at the coasts, and also tell lorry drivers who want to go to France, that due to the actions of the French, there will be no individual or commercial transport to France and the rest of the EU.  The UK Government should fly the vaccine from Europe, thus avoid the Ports. It will be interesting to see what the EU does over the next 48 hours. 

No Deal Brexit by 31st December ? - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase

BBC News: Reports " No trade deal unless 'substantial shift' from EU, UK says"

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Sunday deadline by the European Parliament for a Brexit Deal has passed and no deal, also due to the mutation of the COVID - 19 virus most of the EU is closing its border to the UK, some Countries that also mans lorries.  The UK PM has to be FIRM with the EU, within nothing moving, the UK is not afraid of a NO DEAL BREXIT, our waters and our fish, and the French can bugger off if they think they are getting our fish.  The UK voter voted in 2016 and 2019 for the UK to leave the EU, it did not vote for commercial links or trade links, thus the UK should have a clear break with the the EU, that would be popular in the UK if not the EU.  The blame can be pointed at the French, the French President has meet his Waterloo, e.g Fish.
