"How do you negotiate Brexit? I don't get. The EU: here's a shit deal. Uk guv:i don't like that. The EU: take it or leave it. Uk guv: I'm not allowed to leave it. The EU: we know, sign here. " You can’t negotiate with the EU because they know that in reality we don’t want to leave and if we do leave without a deal we are fucked. They hold all the cards, all the leave voters were repeatedly warned this would happen but through a combination of naivety , arrogance and stupidity they still voted to leave  | |||

"The negotiations for a new deal were a sham .Boris and Cummings had no intention of getting a different deal and they’ve been found out .They only want a no deal and the good and decent people in parliament decided to stand against the liars.Well done! "Exactly. We democratically voted in these MP to do exactly what they have done . | |||

" It wasn't quite like that  . The UK negotiated an agreement settlement, rather than just getting an offer from the EU - although the UK ministers, like Davis,didn't often spend much time in Brussels, they took most of 2 years to formulate a plan that Johnson was involved with at Chequers too.
The agreement allowed the UK government to fulfil the referendum guarantee of departure with a deal, as no deal exit was very clearly excluded as not being voted for.
The government also has legal responsibilities as part of the Good Friday agreement, to preserve an open border between the UK and the EU member state of Ireland - the UK solution to this was to have the Backstop element of the exit agreement.
In short - the 2 sides created the departure agreement: It was not what 1 side imposed on the other.
Although the UK asked to leave, it was legally clarified that the Article 50 notice could be cancelled by the UK, where it would continue as before. It could then resubmit another, where the 2 sides get another 2 years to negotiate another exit deal.
Leaving on a specific date is not essential. Leaving without a deal does not give voters what was promised. The PM has a responsibility to do the right thing for the country. That would be a deal exit that is not substantially worse for the UK. | |||

"So would we be in a better negotiating position when No deal is not an option?" Give us a deal or we will kill ourselves. That is your no deal option. “No deal” is very simply a complete negotiation failure on the UK side. It is only here in the UK that anyone thinks that using the threat of killing ourselves to get a good deal is anything other than simply bonkers. | |||

So you quit your job leaving him slightly inconvenienced by having to find your replacement meanwhile you go home with no job. Having no money coming in and a possibly of losing your house, your wife and even the dog. Or would you start the conversation by outlining your positive contribution to the firm and how you can make the company better.
I know every negotiation is different but they are always best started off in a friendly manner. | |||

"So would we be in a better negotiating position when No deal is not an option?" It doesn't make much difference, because posturing about how much we will do a no deal doesn't resolve the back stop issue. Do I need to write that a third time? | |||

I take your point but workers are protected during industrial action."Additional points. The trade union agreed terms. The workers rejected it. The company said, tell us what a good deal looks like. The workers tell them what they terms don't want. The union then decide the best course of action is to say give us a better deal or we will all quit... And the workers say woah, that's not what we want. It gets a bit blurry as you could argue the workers are the people or MP's. I'm using MP's as representatives of the people.... | |||

"Having the option of No Deal isn't this amazing negotiating tactic that Brexiteers want to claim. " I heard it described brilliantly on the radio the other week... No deal is like riding through the desert on your horse to the only car showroom for miles... shooting your horse dead and then walking in and saying to the car salesman "Give me a deal on a car! Or I'll.... or I'll..... or I'll walk right back out of here!" -Matt | |||

" If you want a better offer you've to come up with some bargaining chip or new suggestions, none has been provided yet by the government. It's obvious that throwing the toys out of the pram Boris style doesn't work with the EU. As he has lost his majority anyway, Boris should consider to drop the DUP and consider a separate soft Brexit status for Nothern Ireland with a sea border. This alternative to the backstop might bring others back on board. | |||

For two thousand years and more human beings have traded with people near and far. There is a reason why the closest neighbours are the most important trading partners - history proves that. TM’s deal recognised that fact and so provided for a transition period to enable U.K. businesses to prepare for Brexit in an orderly manner. There is nothing in TM’s deal that would stop any future trade deal with any other country other than the U.K. deciding whether or not in the future it would align itself with EU, American or Chinese regulations. Choosing one would limit access to others - but these are normal choices that independent nations make. | |||

So we are like two nuclear forces agreeing terms of disarmourment. But one is threatening to press the button today if they don't get the terms they weren't. And were putting plans in place to put a timer on it, just to double down. The irony is the term being argued about is one which allows continued mutual safetey in the absence of a better set of terms. You say we can accept the offer, but how many times now has parliament refused to do so? How can the uk negotiate a better offer if we have nowhere to go? The uk: "can we have a better offer?" The EU "no" The uk "if you don't give us a better offer, we'll never be able to leave" The EU "cool". How could we expect a better deal outside of the EU than in it? The reason that everything is so fucked up is that the expectations were raised so high by the liars, incompetents and snake oil salesmen.

Without "no deal" there is no alternative. Parliament won't accept the offered deal, and doesn't want no deal, therefore we must stay. Why is no deal better than TMs proposed deal? Because if you have no deal you're free to seek trade deals with countries outside of the EU. TM's deal ties us to dealing with the EU. No it doesn’t. For two thousand years and more human beings have traded with people near and far. There is a reason why the closest neighbours are the most important trading partners - history proves that. TM’s deal recognised that fact and so provided for a transition period to enable U.K. businesses to prepare for Brexit in an orderly manner. There is nothing in TM’s deal that would stop any future trade deal with any other country other than the U.K. deciding whether or not in the future it would align itself with EU, American or Chinese regulations.

" No. But im surprised so many think that having less options puts us in a stronger negotiating position. " To negotiate what? The withdrawal agreement is a transition to open trade negotiations in the future. It is a precursor, since it provides assurances about citizen rights, payment of dues and the border in Ireland. This idea a new withdrawal agreement can be negotiated before October 31 is utterly bogus - a line being fed to moderate Tory MPs to keep them on side meantime. | |||

"How do you negotiate Brexit? I don't get. The EU: here's a shit deal. Uk guv:i don't like that. The EU: take it or leave it. Uk guv: I'm not allowed to leave it. The EU: we know, sign here. You can’t negotiate with the EU because they know that in reality we don’t want to leave and if we do leave without a deal we are fucked. They hold all the cards, all the leave voters were repeatedly warned this would happen but through a combination of naivety , arrogance and stupidity they still voted to leave
So we're too far in to leave. We're riding the rollercoaster like it or not!
Yes. Imagine being a leave voter now, they must feel very foolish. After the shit has settled we can always apply to rejoin. No angry"Good, | |||

The EU "no" The uk "if you don't give us a better offer, we'll never be able to leave" The EU "cool". How could we expect a better deal outside of the EU than in it? The reason that everything is so fucked up is that the expectations were raised so high by the liars, incompetents and snake oil salesmen. The current divisions and hostility in society are ALL becuase of lies and exaggerations made before, during and since the referendum. The EU is under no obligations to fix a problem that UK national politics has created. It doesn't matter that we are Great Britain and we are/were great. All that matters is that the EU is a rules-based union and we want to leave it and for them to break their rules so that we can stop arguing amongst ourselves. The deal offered is worse than no deal. Without "no deal" there is no alternative. Parliament won't accept the offered deal, and doesn't want no deal, therefore we must stay. No. It’s not. The deal is shit. But it is not worse than no deal. It is worse than remaining a member. -Matt" O dear, another ‘brain washed’ brexit fanatic | |||

What happens if the EU don't grant an extension?" Then, I think, the UK will leave at 2300hrs on October 31. But all the noises from the EU suggest they do not want to be seen to be the ones who inflict a crash-out exit. | |||

"How do you negotiate Brexit? I don't get. The EU: here's a shit deal. Uk guv:i don't like that. The EU: take it or leave it. Uk guv: I'm not allowed to leave it. The EU: we know, sign here. " Indeed it goes like this UK Gov, we want lots of cake , EU, ok here's a fair deal where you can have some cake UK, we want more cake and we are not going to pay for it , and if you dont give us what we want we will cut our hands off EU, you can have no more cake , we would prefer you didn't remove your hands as it will make a bloody mess but regardless no extra special cake UK, cake or we bluntly remove our nose from our face Eu , erm ok UK, we will ,we will ,we will, sovereignty Eu erm , ok Long stupid story short , suggesting the UK may leave without a deal is not a bargaining chip of any value All it illustrates is the current leaders of the UK, will put pride before their fall , and are not rational humans worth wasting valuable time talking with | |||

" There was no real scrutiny from all mp’s on the shape of the deal, it time we face facts, there are ways to provide a brexit for both sides of the argument, trust the process which is going on now. We’ll leave not a problem, and it will not be at the hands of few, but the many. Democracy is changing, and the checks and balances are in place. | |||

"It helps if one side knows what it is doing in a negotiation. The EU position was crystal clear from day one. The UK has been a shambles. " very very true | |||
