UK and EU deal done 14:51 - Dec 24 with 7463 views | Saintsforeverj | Reported on sky news. Boris has got the deal that respects all our red lines. Food won't go up, free trade deal agreed, we make our own laws and we can watch Saints in Europe next year. Sorry for another political thread, but this is good news for us all. Congratulations Boris for getting what the brexiteers voted for and we won't have the no deal that was threatened. Money talks, the EU were never going to lose billions and neither was the UK. He has got Brexit done. [Post edited 24 Dec 2020 14:54]

UK and EU deal done on 15:09 - Dec 24 with 2677 views | Sadoldgit | Fair play for reading all 2000 pages of the deal and coming up with this synopsis! No doubt both sides will have their spin but before we start waving flags and holding socially distanced street parties, let’s wait until the experts look at the details of the deal before we get too excited. Yes, it is great that we have a deal but we have already spent a large fortune on the leaving process so let’s see what we are getting in return for getting our country back. | | | |

Brexit is done after a long and tedious 4 and half years. Boris has achieved what many haven't managed to do, even during a dreadful pandemic. He has got Brexit done (with a deal) and that is why they were elected. They will no doubt scrutinise some details, but it is clear that we will have an immigration points system, free trade agreement, we make our own laws, and Brexit is done. It is great news for businesses and the UK will move on and prosper. A bit of good news. | |

Hardly good news retreating to become a little island of xenophobia As for Boris getting it done I don’t think he is capable of doing anything except bluffing his way into more trouble Let’s see what our kids futures look like in a couple of years shall we | | | |

Congratulations Benny! You made Brexit happen. People like you contributed hugely to the vote for Brexit and for the current government. Sneering supremacists like yourself trying to kick the working class into the gutter turned the tide. | |

I'm excited about a new future for the UK, delivered as promised by Boris and this government. Boris has delivered a deal. You can be miserable and get depressed if you like but I am optimistic about better times ahead. It is very good news for businesses and a huge relief to many. Merry Christmas to you.

Let’s hope our kids’ teachers are able to teach them some grammar too. | |

It is good news that a deal has been done. We have been told constantly by politicians on both sides of the House that any deal is better than no deal so yes, good news indeed. No one seems to have any firm details yet so we don’t really know what it means in real terms but given that it seemed to be an almost impossible task for both sides, fair play to the government and the EU for getting it done. What it all means in terms of how good a deal it is, it seems that will take some time to find out. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

What we really need is the view from ASIS. If he’s happy, we should be too! | |

To be honest, if we have allowed the EU to have a few more tonnes of fish or they have a say on a few things, it doesn't bother me. We are out, we control our borders, we make our own laws and importantly, we have free trade deal. | |

You could well be right! Have a great Christmas mate. (To tell you the truth I am looking forward to the day when no one mentions Brexit again!) | | | |

UK and EU deal done on 22:34 - Dec 24 with 2260 views | Kennington | Good news there’s a deal. Like any sane person living and working in London I voted remain but I respect why people voted leave including friends and family who live lives that are more introspective. I get that and hope the deal works out for everyone and we can all move on. Least of all on here where we won’t need the daily Brexit debate anymore. | |

What do you mean by 'lives that are more introspective'? | | | |

For a start people who don’t value freedom of movement unless it’s to Costa Del Sol or similar for a week baking in the sun and marinating in San Miguel. In the past I’ve had offers to work in Geneva and Brussels but those came at the wrong time. I’d have been open to those again in the future, but those roles are much less likely now. So that’s what I mean, people who are fixated on ‘sovereignty’ above all else and view that above European solidarity. I get where they’re coming from, but I don’t share that outlook. | |

UK and EU deal done on 03:25 - Dec 25 with 2181 views | kernow | Tariff and quota free trade in goods but not services which comprise 80% of British economic activity. They always said that a bad deal was better than no deal , yes,? | | | |
UK and EU deal done on 07:24 - Dec 25 with 2128 views | SalisburySaint | Great news that a deal has been approved, let’s hope it stands up to the expectations of everyone, especially the Brexiters. Let’s hope we can all work together now to get this country moving forward for all its citizens, not just the rich elite. | | | |
