The United Kingdom will agree to follow all European Union rules after Brexit and keep the nation’s borders open for the duration of the transition period to 2022, with further bad news for fisheries and communities in Northern Ireland as a new agreement was reached in Brussels Monday.
The European Union’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier made the announcement in a joint press conference with Britain’s David Davis in Brussels where they presented a “legal text which constitutes a decisive step” towards a final agreement, revealing the enormous extent to which Theresa May’s government has sold out the Brexit-voting British public on a number of key policy areas including immigration, British control over British laws, and regaining control over British fishing waters.
Speaking first at the meeting with journalists, French politician Barnier said Britain had agreed to continue following all Brussels laws for years after the offical Brexit date of March 2019 under the guise of a transition period, but would not be able to challenge or make decisions on that law itself.

I smell a revolution coming to the U.K.... Unless the country full of beta-cucks.
That will be enough to finish off the UK.
It would help just to jail Teresa May, wouldn’t it?
Is there such a thing as Citizens’ Arrest in the UK?
The problem with being a member of the EU is getting out of the EU. It’s hell!!
The U.K never had a vote to join it.
Thet were a founder member.
That’s an irrelevant point.
There was never a referendum in the U.K. to join the E.U.
It is therefore by default illegitimate.
She’s no Margaret Thatcher, that’s for sure.
I’m glad I am old enough to have seen Reagan, Thatcher, Kohl, and Pope John Paul II operating as one in my lifetime.
Something like it will never happen again.
The UK had a referendum in 1975.
Anyone ever see Theresa May and Justin Trudeau at the same time?
I don’t know where Breitbart gets the ‘open borders’ thing from, since the UK does not have open borders with the rest of the EU now. It’s never been part of the Schengen open-borders zone, which only includes some EU countries plus Norway and Switzerland..Breitbart is getting confused with the rights of existing EU citizens from other EU countries to live and work in the UK. That doesn’t apply to people from countries outside the EU, whether they arrive from Europe or from elsewhere. Immigration from those othrer countries is entirely within the control of the UK Government, as it always has been, not the EU.
They had a good run.
OK I stand corrected.
Nevertheless, the citizens of U.K. voted to leave it.
The U.K. government is refusing to honor it. Why have the vote then?
There's nothing in the British constitution which requires there to be a referendum before decisions of this kind are taken. In fact referendums have no constitutional status - they only happen if Parliament decides it would be a good idea to have one (usually, as in this case, to resolve an internal debate in the governing party.)
United Kingdom Politicians are the United Kingdom’s worst enemy
The U.K. is letting people from the Middle East and Africa in with no checks.
I am not sure where you are getting the idea there is no open border to let in the migrants?
They are leaving. The variable is the time it takes to disconnect.
May I remind you, the UK does not have a constitution.
Letting them in? There are illegal immigrants in the UK but if you think there aren’t border controls at UK ports and airports, you’re wrong. Again.
