After our politicians and authorities refused to act over the undemocratic referendum, we've ended up with Brexit; listen to Professor Hylke Vandenbussche of the Faculty of Economics and Business at KU Leuven describe how essential it is for the UK and the EU27 to secure a deal.
How do you think Boris Johnson managed to get the ERG to accept what was essentially a tweaked and worse version of Theresa May's Withdrawal Agreement???

Cummings' latest stool groomer...

Scorched earther, fundamentalist god squadder, enjoys white-supremacy, a dash of eugenics, a side of misogyny and helping of xenophobia.

Will wipe for access......

In Downing St. Now.

For years, the Tories have been threatening to withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights, now they've been gifted a huge majority their threat will be prosecuted. #TakingBackControl

#Brexit ALREADY costs UK £1bn pw as we Hit Holidays! @GoldmanSachs put that lower at £600m. but I'm looking at 2+% less GDP (than would have been); more Govt Debt (+interest); the growing impact of #Brexodus on jobs/taxtake; £devaln.&inflation creep, reducing Property values.1/20
@GoldmanSachs Am puzzled & mortified? that UK's so-called Major Political Parties @Conservatives @UKLabour seem umbilically disconnected? from the financial IMPACT of their recent (let's say) 'accidental collusions' and Brexit-Birth-Giving! Why the co-incidental & costly numeracy lapse? 2/20
@GoldmanSachs @Conservatives @UKLabour Assuming that (eg) @bankofengland @hmtreasury @ICAEW @The_IoD @cbicarolyn @FrancesOGrady are aware of UK's #Brexit financial haemorrhage? eg Govt Debt, Jobs/Tax, Businesses (all sizes), Individuals - there may be varying estimates? but agreement that a HUGE hit is ongoing! 3/20

#Brexit news for today:

Nigel Adams, Minister for Wales, and Governement whip has resigned the #Cabinet over #TheresaMay's way forward.

1/n
You can hear #TheresaMay's reaction from here

2/n
So the splitting of the #ToryParty continues. Where will it end? And can we expect resignations from #Labour if #Corbyn is seen as giving up too much to #TheresaMay during the discussions tonight.

3/n

Amending the Good Friday Agreement will never fix backstop issue  - my latest on ⁦@Theresa_may⁩ Plan B.

Why won’t it fly? 1/ telegraph.co.uk/politics/2019/…
Well, for starters you need Agreement of all NI parties, UK and IE govts to amend Good Friday Agreement

All-party talks anyone,
after the trust deficit that’s grown up since Brexit? Seriously? /2
Then we’re expecting the EU to allow Irish and U.K. govts to bilateralise the border (an EU external border) where EU has trade competence? Seriously?

Legally and politically imbecilic. /3

1/ If you don’t follow Brexit every day, here’s some advice. Let go of any illusions that this drama is about trade protocols, residency rights or the status of the Irish border. Brexit is the story of a proud former imperial power undergoing a mid-life crisis
2/ The rest of the world is left listening to Britain’s therapy session as they drone on about their ex-spouse, unable to see, admit or address their own flaws.
3/ The promise of Brexit was that it would make Britain feel big again. “Britain is special,” the Brexiteers assured British voters, who cast their ballots accordingly. But Brexit has proven that for the first time in modern history, Britain is small.

The concepts of doing well by doing good, impact investment funds & the like substitute "generosity" for "justice". Justice often requires the powerful to lose something, to stop standing on someone's back. 1/x
Generosity in this context is like continuing to stand on someone's back while throwing them a bone. Generosity of this kind where the system doesn't change but scraps are thrown has become a very powerful idea. 2/x
