Unexpected by whom? It has been obvious to me since day one of the negotiations. The EU has always been up front and transparent. The UK less so. As for uselessness, well the uselessness of the British negotiating team is about the one thing Leavers and Remainers are united on.
New analysis by the UK Trade Policy Observatory is warning that what should have been the technical formality of transferring EU powers into national law when the UK leaves the European Union, could instead open the gates for the widespread use of outlawed carcinogenic pesticides that have been shown to alter human reproductive, neurological, and immune systems.
According to reports/rumours in the Guardian/BBC live politics blogs May is to resign tonight: if so good. All we need now is the Tory government to fall and for Brexit to be cancelled.
Latest on BBC live is she is refusing to resign.
The odious and over-rated (especially by herself) Leadsom has just resigned, no doubt to prepare her bid to replace May. Maybe, if more follow her over the next day or so May will be forced out sooner rather than later.Problem is, of course, there is nobody competent waiting in the wings.
Why do you think it is a good thing that May is ousted? What if she is replaced by somebody who thinks no deal is a good idea?
My hope is that this hopeless Tory government fall and that anything that contributes to their misfortune is, therefore, a good thing.
I'd add, in the interests of Scotland, that Boris Johnson would be a great idea to further unravel the already rotting bonds of the union.
It seems a hard Brexit would be a gift to Scottish nationalists, who could then press ahead with an independence referendum. I just wonder if English Leave voters are aware of this and if they would want a Brexit that was followed by Scottish independence and possibly Irish reunification?
I suspect leave voters in England and Wales aren't bothered by the strong anti-Brexit feeling in Scotland, as reflected in this EU election result. The outcome was very different here, with 'remain' parties coming top in every Scottish constituency, but of course this hasn't really been mentioned 'down south', since there they seem to be in thrall to the machinations of both Nigel and the bun-fighting between Tories in competition for temporary custody of the poisoned chalice.The political outlooks of the Scottish and English/Welsh electorates now seem irreconcilable to me, and those bleating about the need to 'bring the country together' (and similar expressions of sanctimonious twaddle) clearly aren't paying attention.
I would be all for Irish reunification.
We know you are. However you seem to be ignoring the very real threats involved. As an ideal I am all for Irish reunification. As a practical, workable possibility in the near to medium future I have to acknowledge it is a non starter. Anyone who thinks otherwise is away with the fairies.
The country might be brought together by the threat of a UK breakup, though
If by country you mean the UK, Spud, some of us in Scotland would rather not be part of that, especially given the direction of political travel that seems to be endemic among the Brexit-supporting sections of the electorate in England and Wales.
At present that is probably the case, as the IRA is raising its ugly head again, but in the future I hope it will happen.
