after a no-deal, he would be in a worse position to negotiate.

It would be similar to “we can negotiate ObamaCare after we pass it”

10% of the other 27 countries’ exports go to the UK, but nearly 56% of the UK’s go to the other 27.

Everybody hurts :)

Besides even after a no-deal the stickling point is still the Irish border — the Republic of ireland does NOT want to give in and the Irish are driving the eu move.

I disagree.

What is the "deal" that he's supposed to negotiate? The biggest parts are tariffs, movement of people, and what EU regulations UK will stay in compliance with.

What incentive, right now, do the EU negotiators have to yield on ANY point, knowing that Boris is mandated to accept whatever deal he can get?
