Surely all it means is we will actually follow the rules of a treaty our government ratified. It makes things easier, does it really make things any better or undo damage?
I've yet to be convinced.

It is all spin and the EU offered this years ago.
But, better late than never. And Johnson is sidelined, hah, could not have happened to a nicer person ;) As much as I do not like Sunak's policies, at least he got this done.
And if this agreement is so fantastic, then why does GB not try to get a better trade deal with the EU...
The EU countries check GB to mainland EU goods. And guess what...a lot companies there stopped buying GB goods. Expensive goods of one type or in small volumes are fine, but high volume goods with lower values like food and some items now come from other areas.
Once the EU to GB check fully kick in, the fun will really start.
That's why there are no tomatoes in some shops right now, the hassle of getting food into GB isn't worth it for some suppliers. I don't see that getting better.

It undoes a tiny bit of the damage Brexit has wreaked on this country. We musn't lose sight of this as the right wing press laud Sunak.
