The bluff has been called and they’re now panicking about the potential damage to the fragile EU economy, why else are they dragging us back to the negotiating table. A deal will be done and it will be closer to what we want on fisheries and level playing field than what the EU wants.

I believe that as much as I believe yesterday’s delays were a portent of the future. It’s Boris that’s said the door is open to more negotiations

Not true, when we walked away, it was the EU that made all the running in getting us back to the table, softening/reversing the negative things that they had been saying in their media briefings

Not so sure about this. I'm living in BE now and everything is the same as, no talk of impending doom. Of course that may well be cos I live in Arlon, a frontalier town for Luxembourg where the money is.

Certainly no doom and gloom here, except about Brexit and why?

Get asked why all the time here in France no one gets it and all the money wasted.
Now millions going into a Brexit celebration party.

Spot on. Don't agree with Brexit as I would have preferred to fix the EU from within but we are a democracy and we voted for it. Mind Europe is actually more broken than the UK which makes me agree with this point. The EU was fine as a trading block but the Euro is a mistake as is the fiscal integration which the existing civil servants in Brussels are trying to create.

I popped in here, not much has changed. I'm off again.

Very little to be done with the Fixed Term Parliaments Act other than cosy up to Tory rebels and try and force the cockwomble out of office.

Take back control? This country has become a shambles of despotic cronyism and those who don't have the benefit of being a trust fund baby will be paying for this profligate waste of taxpayers' money for far longer than after the GFC.

Brexit or not Brexit, the country has got the Government it deserved... as do all democracies. Just a matter of how long it will take to unpick the mess that has been made.

And to think people blamed the Lib Dems for the failings of a coalition government and now look where we are.

Strong and stable? Head prep boy who happened to be a pig ******. Those were the days.

Guess there won’t be many more chateau getting saved then...
The tax is applied on profits, but with Brexit looming I know a few who would be satisfied selling at cost, just to get their original outlay back, honestly.
