Better than nothing, but the absolute minimum beyond nothing.
A non-binding commitment to say we'll try to be a bit quicker in trade talks. That's all? Very thin gruel as the saying would go... europa.eu/rapid/press-re…
The question that should be asked to the PM / Cabinet - given that there is now no prospect of a revised agreement until the end of the month earliest how is it fair to business to insist we leave at the end of March? There isn't enough time
On reflection - it is like last week's Brexit votes and debate never took place. The PM has ignored absolutely everyone who opposes her deal. Her way or nothing, everyone else is wrong. No plan B, no extension, no softer Brexit, no criticism allowed.
Maybe she'll get away with it, in which case we will get a deal that Parliament at first sight rejected decisively, and essentially still believes is a dud. And will only vote for under sufferance. On what basis is this a stable outcome?
Sorry, I'm in danger of going a bit @IanDunt here. I shall instead head back towards @Sime0nStylites calm patience. However hard that is.
