"We are paying these people in the transition period, this year alone, £17 billion and yet we have a trade deficit of over £70 billion a year.

"So that means, if we go to WTO terms, their companies would have to pay our Exchequer much much more in tariffs than our tariffs would have to pay them.

"It is in their interests to get a deal and avoid a no deal."


He pointed out that EU negotiations always go down to the wire, and the same timeline is likely in terms of a Brexit trade deal.

Mr Kawczynski hit out at the Brussels for their "intransigence" in the talks, particularly on "the basic area of fishing".

He said that the EU had left the British fishing industry "decimated" since European vessels had "plundered our fishing stocks".

The MP added: "The fact they expect and demand the status quo shows the sheer level of arrogance of these people."

Boris has shown back bone and loyalty towards his friend

Why should Boris have thrown his best man under a bus just to appease short lived public opinion over his eyesight concerns.

On this day 1982 the union jack was raised at Stanley, to mark the end of the Falklands war. Had Starmer been in charge I'm in no doubt the outcome would have been very different.

Btw. Where is Cummings these past few days? Still testing his eyesight?


He DC is very busy at the moment working on Boris's WTO no deal Brexit.
He is our unsang hero/brains getting us away/out from the failing EU united catastrophe.

From January 1 next year we want proper border controls on all our trade as we have today on non EU trade. Use trusted trader schemes to avoid delays at the ports but insist on our standards and tariffs applying fairly to all. Payments and checks can happen away from ports.John Redwood

max - that is quite a thoughtful article. Brexit is of course a form of regime change.
The current situation is lashing out for more change without really understanding the goal.
It is true to say that nothing can stay static for any length of time. The key is to be ahead of the change. I am not sure that Boris et al are in that position.

Keir Starmer prostituting himself in that photo in the hope of picking up one or two grubby votes.

Could not even water cannon them as Khan flogged them off for next to nothing. Not very smart.

Good, albeit tragic, article by Hitchens.

Yesterday's riots wouldn't even have happened if the police had done the job they're paid to do the week before.

Fits the bill!

St Athan is the 'preferred' location for the UK's first battery gigafactory that could provide at least 3,500 new jobs in Wales


UK company behind the proposed battery factory has been considering 42 sites

•St Athan facility is leading the way as the 'preferred choice' ahead of Coventry

•Britishvolt said a gigafactory would provide 'at least' 3,500 new jobs in Wales

•The battery industry is forecast to be worth £5billion domestically by 2025


A site in St Athan, Wales, is leading the way to become the home of the UK's first

gigafactory, it has been revealed this morning.


The company behind the proposed battery factory said it has narrowed down its

selection from 42 to just two locations, with the site in Wales the 'preferred

choice' ahead of one in Coventry.

An all new lithium-ion battery cell manufacturing site, referred to as

a 'gigafactory' after Tesla's facilities in the US and China, would see 'at least

3,500' new jobs become available in Wales.

A handful of super wealthy multibillionaires have accumulated vast riches from running private equity funds that have performed no better on average than basic US stock market tracker funds since 2006.

The number of private equity barons with personal fortunes of more than $2bn has risen from three in 2005 to 22, according to a new analysis which estimates investors paid $230bn in performance fees over a 10-year period for returns that could have been matched by an inexpensive tracker fund costing just a few basis points.

The good old capitalist system that benefits us all, right.

Dream on! Fools!

I think I might have spotted you on the TV with respect to the protests yesterday. Was that you pretending to be a martial arts expert against the police in the blue top?


ROFLMAO!

Motley Fool doesn't generally think much of Lloyds, but they always seem to be writing about it.

That's OK.

I don't think much of Motley Fool advice either. In my opinion on past performance, you would make money overall if you used their recommendations as contrarian indicators.
