Brexit Talks - Update 2 - Transitional Talks

Guardian: Reports " Britain accuses EU of treating UK as 'unworthy' partner...Chief negotiator David Frost says proposed trade deal would make UK ‘bend to EU norms’  "

Lets Get Real:

It seems that Paris and Berlin will need to pressure the EU to move its line, in less France and Germany want an economic war with the UK, then the UK should cut taxes to rock bottom, cut business rates, make the UK the best place to do business.  One hopes that the EU Capitals read or watch UK news and understand that the UK will not be moved, we are firm, when it comes to our business sector and our fish, the EU has to learn that Nations will and CAN say NO to their rules.   If the EU does not change and reform it will soon find that it goes WAY the Dual Monarchy ( Austro - Hungarian Empire ) eaten from within by Nations that want to rule and be SOVEREIGN.

Sky News: Reports " Brexit deal possible but EU has to drop 'ideological approach' - Michael Gove..Michael Gove tells MPs that Brussels "wants us to obey the rules of their club, even though we're no longer members".  "

Lets Get Real:

The UK has to be TOUGH with the EU, they are so used to the other sides giving way that they are in a bit of STATE OF SHOCK when a Country says NO to them.  The pressure on OUR FISHING stocks is coming from France and Germany, the PM should have a word with both Paris and Berlin and tell them to back off, with Covid - 19 do they also want a economic war with the UK, the Brits tend to wins wars with out European neighbours, they seem to forgotten that FACT.   The Royal Navy will protect UK fishing rights, and we have subs too.   Germany and France need to smell the coffee and fast.

BBC News: Reports on the remarks by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, " It is "not obvious there will be an immediate bounceback" for the UK economy, once lockdown restrictions are eased, the chancellor has warned.  "

Lets Get Real:

The UK economy needs to get going after COVID 19 is either beaten or the UK has to live with the fact that COVID - 19 will be with us for years.   There is vaccine research in the UK and the US and the process so for has been good, but it might take months or years for a final solution.   After borrowing billions to keep people in WORK, the Government should pay it back over the decades, there is no need for austerity NOW, also it would cause further damage to the economy.  The UK has COVID - 19 to deal with but also we will be out of the EU finally by December 31st, given the present economic condition there won't be much difference.  The Government will have to open the public purse to finance work schemes for those out of work, it will be the 1980s - 9Os all over again, please make sure that any government jobs are REAL JOBS and that you are not thrown out of work after 6 months once the government reduces its support.   Hard times ahead.

Sky News: Reports " Coronavirus: UK records lowest increase in COVID-19 deaths since lockdown began...Another 160 deaths across all settings, including hospitals and care homes, has taken the total to 34,796.  "

Lets Get Real:

The UK Government has to get the UK economy moving, it is reported that the COVID - 19 could increase Government borrowing by three hundred billion at least.   This will be paid off over the decades, this blog will be pushing up the flowers by the time its paid off.   The High Streets of the UK has to get going, small shops have to re-open, cafes and pubs have to open, the Country has to get back normal, Schools need to open, public transport has to get back to work.  The review in to COVID - 19 can come later, first things first, the people must be allowed out of their homes and back to work.

Immigration and the UK/EU Transition Period - Brexit Update 1 - Brexit

BBC News: Reports " A new post-Brexit immigration system for the UK will move a step closer to becoming law, as it is debated by MPs. "

Lets Get Real:

The 2nd reading of the bill was passed by nearly a hundred votes, this shows a majority Government can get its away through the House of Commons.  The Bill is good, it places EU Citizens on the same level as other World citizens.   This means that the freedom of movement is deleted from UK law, about time too.   The low wage economy created by the Blair/Brown Governments lead to the RED WALL of Labour MPs falling to the Conservative Party.  The voters were clear in 2016 and 2019, they want to reduce immigration, of course there are exceptions for those needed in the NHS and other areas.   The UK will be a sovereign State after December 31st 2020, we control our borders not the EU. 

It is OUR FISH and we are KEEPING THEM - Brexit Update 2 - Transitional Talks

Sky News: Reports  " Fishing arrangements remain a sticking point, Mr Frost said, with Brussels continuing to "insist on fisheries arrangements and access to UK fishing waters in a way that is incompatible with our future status as an independent coastal state".  "

Lets Get Real:

The EU in this case France and Germany have to get over the FACT that the UK has left the EU, our waters and fish our OURS, not up for discussion with the EU. Our fishermen have been arguing for years that the EU gets the best part of the DEAL.  This has to end, the EU will have to accept the FACT that British fishermen will decided how much fish they take from the Channel.    The EU countries will have to deal with London and how much they can fish or if they are allowed to fish.   The UK should be ready for a NO DEAL BREXIT, that is what the UK voter wants from the UK Government.   The HARD REMAINERS  within the BBC/Guardian/Sky and Times will push for an extension of the trade talks, the UK Government has to say NO. 

No Progress in EU talks with the UK over Trade Deal - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Talks

BBC News: Reports " UK warns 'very little progress' made in EU trade talks "

Lets Get Real:

The UK should send a CLEAR message to the UK, it's our way or there is NO DEAL.   This is not the May Government that dithered, it's the Boris Johnson Government with a 80 majority in the House of Commons.  The UK people voted out in 2016 and 2019, the UK will not move, it will have to be the EU.   The EU is in recession, so is the UK, if it does not want a further recession it will agree to a deal.   The EU is allowing ideology, e.g Germany and France to make demands that the UK will not meet and will never meet.  The UK has made its mind up, time for the EU to get the message.   The UK should increase talks with the US and Japan and the Commonwealth over a deep trade deal.
