On Monday, Liam Fox said: “My Japanese counterparts are very keen to do (a deal) because they think such an agreement could be concluded quite quickly,”
uk.reuters.com/article/uk-bri…
Today, a leaked copy of the Government's trade deal negotiation progress document shows they're officially not expecting any deal with Japan to be completed before Brexit.
(NOTE: This document is missing the ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM i.e. the EU itself, which accounts for half our trade. If we leave without a deal, then by definition we won't have a trade deal with them either!)

The most fundamental misunderstanding about the Brexit referendum was that it was a choice between 2 equally desirable outcomes, like having melon or soup as a starter.

But the melon turned out to be rancid. Should the chef serve it anyway, because that's what the diners wanted?
And should the diners eat the stinking grey mass of pulp, even though they know it will make them ill.

In hindsight, melon was never a choice at all, and the diners shouldn't have been given an option.
It's not too late to avoid a week in bed with a bucket within easy reach. We could still go around the table, grab all the plates, and serve soup instead. But we have to do it soon, because melon-noshing time is almost upon us.

The Health Secretary wants to scrap pager use in the NHS, calling them "archaic". They cost over £6.6 million a year to run. However, there are over 130,000 still in use today. So that suggests they're still vitally important, don't you think?
bbc.co.uk/news/technolog…
As the article explains, there are important cases where pagers do a simple task reliably and well, such as alerting staff if a patient goes into cardiac arrest. And because they run on a separate network, they're a useful backup.
So while there's no arguing that they are archaic - the idea of a pager seems almost laughable in 2019 - it's much harder to argue the case for scrapping them wholesale. Yet Matt Baker seems intent on doing so anyway.

The easiest way to understand why the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement + Transition Period is a disaster is to imagine the UK walking the plank, like in a pirate film (We're walking under our own volition, remember). The water below the plank is boiling with sharks.
The WA defines what the plank is like, and how much of ship life will continue once you've walked out onto it. The transition period defines how long you have on the plank before you have to make the ultimate leap.
So under the TP, the UK will be standing for 18+ months at the very tippy-tip of the plank, staring down at the circling teeth. There's no way back onto the ship - that way's closed off by having left the EU. So we're just swaying and shivering and watching our doom eyeing us up.

🔥Very important thread.🔥

💥No one screamed, shouted & amplified the tactics the Russians used in the Ukraine, Georgia and Estonia, years before they used many of the same tactics they used in the U.S. before the 2016 & 2108 elections.

💥The European Court of Justice (ECJ) will play a significant role into whether the U.K. can reverse the Brexit vote and they are expected to rule before Christmas time.

💀Final exit date is March 29, 2019.
