TONY Blair last night sparked fury by boasting EU officials privately gloated to him that they forced Britain to “cave” in divorce talks.

Walk away, pay them nothing. It’s retarded to ask the EU to outline the conditions under which they will let you leave.
Why make any kind of deal?
Tell them to EFF OFF and go your separate ways.
I disagree. Get out and break all trade agreements. Then renegotiate reasonable deals, or perhaps even join a free trade with America.
What would happen if Britain just simply quit? Walked away. Cut all ties to the EU? The people of GB voted (wisely - one of the few good decisions in a long time) to leave the bloodsucking EU - get it done. What, will the cheese-eating, surrender-monkey French go to war?
Funny - US Revolutionary War General and First President, George Washington (I believe it was) warned of ties that bind... GB made a deal with the Devil - and the Devil doesn’t give up his contracts easily.
The EU army will come after them with all their might!!!!!
The problem is, and has been, May and the UK deepstater Remainers who imposed her on the other Tories. UK should just make a hard Brexit, and flash its ass at any kangaroo court that tries to impose the EU's will on the sovereign UK. At that point, it would be time for the US to move on Greece, Cyprus, Italy, Hungary, Poland, the UK, and a few other states (perhaps including non-EU Norway and Switzerland) to bring them out of the EU and into a much more favorable trade alliance with us.
Is there anything similar to Fort Sumpter in Europe. Maybe that needs to be the next step. There are a few other “states” that will join them, I’m sure.
UK was stupid to ever join the fiasco in the first place
A well timed, well modulated statement designed to maximize the dismay and stresses on the May government.
Nothing more.
> Walk away, pay them nothing.
Absolutely, tell them you would rather owe it to them than cheat them out of it.
You’ve got to let them save face. Bragging before the signing is poor form.
The deal probably sucked anyway. May hated it, and its hard to believe she was fighting hard for England’s point of view.
To our English cousins........give the continent the two finger salute. Spain Failed. Napoleonic France Failed. Nazi Germany failed. Why should you surrender to the continent now? That’s what this is....they are trying to force your surrender. They have a trade surplus with you. They will be hurt by a hard Brexit far more than you will. They’re just grandstanding to try to cow any others thinking about not going along with the diktats of Brussels. Hang tough for a while and they’ll be forced to come to you for a deal and be a lot more reasonable.
Does anyone in possession of their senses think that the EU/ World Government RULERS would let Great Britain reclaim national sovereignty ?
A "no deal" exit simply puts the UK under WTO rules and they are free to trade with whoever they wish, subject to certain import tariffs that any other nation has to deal with that does not have a specific trade agreement with the EU. That is definitely better than this nasty agreement that May has taken to Parliament for approval.
The "Remainers" among the Tories passed May off as someone who didn't approve of Brexit but would work fairly to negotiate the best deal possible. She flat out lied and created this monster which hardly anyone is agreeable to, at least the Brexiteers hate it.
May has a 19% approval rating on this deal and there will likely be an election in the future which might have it's own risks. Rees-Mogg has issued a "no confidence" letter and others will likely follow forcing her out as PM. The Tories might be able to replace her without an election but I have a limited knowledge of British rules , and it probably shows!
Catchy phrasing.
As an economic free trade zone it made sense.
But the plot was always to make it into a United States of Europe...without the bill of rights, an independent judiciary, or any accountability for the bureaucratic masters.
It is even quite bad at federalism.
Overall, European leaders seem happy with the agreement that’s on the table and EU negotiators believe that this deal is the best possible arrangement.
