http://global.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202004/17/WS5e990b23a3105d50a3d16dfc.html While Boris is in charge, it's not gonna happen! We will finally get rid of the shackles of the EU at the end of the year, deal or no deal. P. (who never voted for access to the EU in the 1st place.) |

Look's like a lot of what the EU was demanding of the UK has fallen apart when you look at what is happening due to Covid-19. The North and South are pursuing radically different policies that will influence the shape of Europe after the pandemic is over. Germany's top court decision clashes with European Central Bank in revolutionary ruling, threatening to undermine confidence in the euro and kills off any hope of eurobonds or joint debt issuance. |

With all his outbursts about Britain, wonder what Donald Tusk has to say about his country now? BBC live Report 10:17 Although the number of infections and deaths is much lower in Poland than in many western European countries, the pandemic has caused unprecedented confusion over whether to hold presidential elections this month. |

Will we see the price of imports decrease? Apparently Boris has stated import tariffs, between 2.5% and 8%, imposed by the EU will be removed on 1st Jan 2021. |

I read Wiggo's post 2052747 on Trump's bursting bubble and then stayed on the CNN site and found this, Four years after Brexit, support for the EU surges in Britain London (CNN)Four years on from the UK's Brexit vote, a majority of British voters would now opt to remain inside the European Union, says new research. |

The latest survey of 26 countries, four of which are not member states, reveals an increase in support for EU membership, suggesting that speculation that other countries would quickly follow the UK to exit the union is possibly unfounded.Unfounded? Not if Poland has any say in the matter. Don't think Brussels will think kindly of its members cherry picking what treaties they want. |

Birmingham isn't in the north. And I am sure that the Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds corridor (M62) is much more of a power house. And you also need to consider Sheffield and Bradford in that group, plus the connection to the North Sea at Hull. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UK_cities_by_GVA edit] and with a little more looking I find that the southern part of Lancashire makes the third biggest contribution to the UK behind London and Manchester and ahead of Birmingham. |

Well, somebody is gonna have to !! Need to start financing the rest of UK at better rates and let Londoners finance themselves, instead of all of the UK financing things we don't want or use in London. |

Take the banking/finance and the stock market out of the London contribution as they are National assets and what do you have left. A very big housing estate and a lot of 'hospitality' sector? Then also, there is a very good concentration of world leading excellent museums and galleries there... What did the Romans do for The Britains?

He added: "Trade talks are over. The EU have effectively ended them by saying they do not want to change their negotiating position." Trade talks over say No 10 Australia option This could all have been avoided if they hadn't spent 3 years dithering since 2016. Just wondering, come Jan 1st, how many companies will give an extra loading to their prices to assist them in recovering lost profits from 2020? |
