"The United Kingdom will ensure that no new regulatory barriers develop between Northern Ireland and the rest of the United Kingdom."
"In the absence of agreed solutions, the United Kingdom will maintain full alignment with those rules of the internal market and the customs union."
When are agreed solutions happening? Anytime soon?
in the coming year they'll discuss and negotiate the solutions. btw, we are aligned with many rules and regulations across the world, i dont think that phrase has the meaning people are giving it.
If Northern Ireland has no hard border, no customs checks, no restrictions and full alignment on trade with the Republic of Ireland while simultaneously maintaining unfettered access to the UK single market then, logically, then what is to stop getting goods tariff-free from Sussex to the EU via Northern Ireland?
I fancy a few farmers on the NI/ROI border will be rubbing their hands with glee at today's announcements.

I'm confused. Do you think Farage being unhappy with the agreement is a good thing or a bad thing?
Nice quote from Michel Barnier at this morning's press conference when asked if the deal meant that the default position is remaining in the single market:
“No. You havent understood that well… beyond its decision to leave the EU… the British government has confirmed that it wishes also to leave the single market and the customs union which is not obligatory. There are countries who are not E.U. members, who are part because that is their wish, whilst respecting of the rules of the single market. But that’s not the choice taken by the UK. So you have not understood that well.”
That kills that notion stone dead then.

I don't think anyone thinks we will be officially remaining in the single market and therefore what that entails. It's just that it is starting to look increasingly likely that in practice we effectively will end up in a very similar position as we are now.
It's a neat solution as it keeps remainers and brexiters generally happy, just not the likes of Farage etc.
We are still leaving,and the extra two years that Dumbo's echo was grizzling about are 2019 and 2020.
Think I might invest in a NI brass-name-plate business.

Ker-ching! I can almost visualise Arlene Foster donning her hat, heels and tap-dancing Judy Garland-style all the way home. "Forget The Troubles c'mon Get Happy, you better chase all your cares away, shout Hallelujah c'mon get happy, get ready for the Brexit Day!"
go on, pull the other onei don't look at them for news - it's more the comment from actual people that i know or know of that are of vague interest - unlike anything you have to say on anything, as you and your views are an irrelevance to me.
