Almost a year after the Referendum, David Davis & Michel Barnier are now in official negotiations, but is there any common ground?
The EU has repeatedly stated that the Four Freedoms are inseperable.
The UK response, well the Tory response has been a lot of headline bluster, 'a bad deal is worse than no deal', and sideline demands of 'just walk away' from the Hardbrexit torykippers, (who never had the balls to stand as Ukip candidates).
Were I to be a member of the EU negotiating team, I would conclude that the ToryUK side realise they have a weak negotiating position.
The '£350M per week for the NHS' was abandoned on the morning of the 24th June 2016.
David Davis has admitted that immigration control is unlikely, (partly based upon Theresa Mays' inability to control non-EU immigration during her 5 years as Home Secretary?)
We have been told by George Osborne that no sector of the UK economy can manage without immigrant labour.
dePfeffel has toned down his 'have cake and eat cake' guffawing.
The disgraced Liam Fox is unnaturally quiet, but is now bestmates with Duterte.
Is reality beginning to penetrate the understanding of these three?
