 This is a dreadful Brexit agreement for the Falkland Islands
The Falklands were not included in the Brexit agreement.

60% of revenue comes from the fishery sector, where they now face 6% - 18% tariffs for their main market, the EU.

 40% of Falkland Islands GDP is dependent on the EU.

With no Brexit agreement and tariffs causing such a huge issue for revenue, this agreement was "warmly welcomed by Argentinian authorities".

@JolyonMaugham 1/
I am reminded of the PPE that other countries use up to what the UK has been using.

We need to send government ministers to prison.

 Brexit has happened

The 'transition' period ends at the end of 2020.

If the UK and EU can't agree a trade agreement with the EU due to other things like the #COVID19 pandemic then it will need to agree an extension of 1 or 2 years by 30 June.

2/
 A agrement to extend the 'transition' period needs to be made by 30 June and it isn't as 'easy' as extending #Article50 was because each of the EU27 needs to be asked, which isn't a last last-minute thing.

3/
 Civil and diplomatic service grandees, including Ivan Rogers, Philip Rycroft and Gus O'Donnell have called for an extension to the transition period to deal with #COVID19

"It is simple common sense"
Philip Rycroft, former head of the Brexit department

 Brexit was the cover for the far right.
Now that Brexit is 'over the line' the main part starts.

Dismantling the institutions of state:
BBC
Whitehall / civil servants
The Press
CBI
Judiciary
Military top brass
The Westminster lobby

 Dominic Cummings is a far right libertarian but also a thug.

He shows contempt for pretty much anyone who disagrees with him, which is similar to Boris Johnson.

Cummings and Johnson are now in power with next to no opposition.
🤷‍♂️

 This goes some way to showing why the CBI have been so quiet on how British business will be affected by Brexit.

The government have been at war with the CBI for years and either ignore them, or brief against them.

With Labour politicians gaslighting the public like this I don't think the Labour party deserves to exist anymore.
You are all too politically tribal, including you.

Labour have deliberately given us a far right government and a very damaging Brexit.

@Andrew_Adonis 2/
The main issue was a Labour policy of a GE before a referendum.

Keir Starmer lost the referendum before GE argument in the shadow cabinet meeting.

The LibDems should not have gone for a GE either and didn't vote for it in the end.

You Gaslight us on the issue being the LibDems with a GNU.

The issues was the independent Tory MPs and support for Corbyn.

Greive thought that he had the numbers for Margaret Beckett or John Bercow.

This gaslighting by you and others is why Labour deserve to die now.
