We take the piss something awful out of the Germans in NL... but it doesn't seep into the countries sub conscience of "this is still a bad country"
Of course there are complaints that Germany has too much power in the EU, but it is more from a political "this is now" place not a "ww2" place.

Relax, the new Tory A team are staying to save us.

Only Rudi V came across alright. But he had a perm.
Memories of that Frank Rijkaard moment...

Tatort would fit the CSI bill, with 70s taches and 80s copper detective leather jackets. Dunno if there are subs... [I speake the German] but there may be subs now with lots of internet enthousiasts. Same with loads of furrin movies. That's actually really cool people do that.
Das Boot is all sorts of awesome. German TV is just not broadcast here, and English channels tend to buy English language shows cos you don't have to pay for subs then.

Auswiedersehen, Pet
Wasn't that the one about the English unemployed scum abusing the Free Movement of People, going over there, taking their jobs, not speaking the language, sending money out of the country and using that to survive the depraved austerity policy of their Conservative government.

New favourite Brexit daydream...
Tory incompetence and inability to unite HoC leads to GE.
Lab win on manifesto to negotiate Norway style EEA deal (basically what is required by the 6 tests), and nothing much changes.
A few years down the line, public opinion leads government of the day to negotiate EU reentry via Article 49.
UK willingly rejoins EU, but without any of our current exemptions. Euro, Schengen, the lot.

Gove and Leadsom are going to fix it...

The EU can probably see now that the deal as written has little hope of getting through UK Parliament. So they are in a bit of a sticky place themselves, as they won't be too keen on a no deal brexit either.
Would they consider some small further concessions, in the hope that it's enough to build some UK support to help avoid the no deal route. Their only other hope is for a GE/extension/peoples vote...
I'm under no illusion that a no deal brexit is tons worse for us than the EU, but id still like to avoid being kicked in the nuts even if the other guy was going to have his chopped off.

I recall reading an article on - I think - the Guardian earlier in the week about that report.
The conclusion is (as expected) devastating.
I doubt the Evening Standard will use those findings for tonight's front page.

They're offering that today, by explicitly saying that a cancellation is still available. Other than that, we sent negotiators there for 18 months and waited until the end of the negotiations to kick up a fuss? I'd imagine that they quite reasonably think that should will stand by what they negotiated with us in good faith.
As for further concessions - I think that's probably what May et al thought they could bluff out of the EU. I think they've just had that bluff called.

Given the total absence of conflicts of interest at the Evening Standard, I can't see how you could possibly come to that conclusion.

Looks like survation got the intern in for that...
"Sacking Mrs May as PM would make it more/less likely UK got a good Brexit deal?"
Yes or Disagree?????
