Always a fun read when you pick up stuff from the EU
Nice little hint at the long term nature of Brino - "At the request of the United Kingdom, made at the earliest after 31December 2028, the Union shall make an estimate of the remaining amounts to be paid by the United Kingdom under this Article, on the basis of a rule taking into account the amount of outstanding commitments at the end of the year and an estimate of any decommitments on those outstanding commitments, any financial corrections and any proceeds from the infringement procedures after the end of the year. "
(my bold) From Article 140 "outstanding commitments".
So pay for 10 more years (depending on the commitments to be made in 2020) and then we can ask for an estimate on how much more is to pay......

Imagine being so completely useless that all you're able to come up with is a deal that absolutely nobody is happy with regardless of which side they take, I'm impressed at how crap and rubbish she is.
Gone by the end of the month, she's toast.
I think you just described the middle ground. Did you expect EU to just give in and give us everything that we demanded? I suspect that this was not the starting point of what we asked for.Gone by the end of the month, she's toast.
I do agree that to me it seems like a worse deal than what we have now. How it gets improved I have no idea.
PS - no-one is gonna want to take this over this month.... She will still be there.

Imagine not understanding the idea of compromise on an issue the country is pretty much split down the middle on.mx5nut said:

Peston has just been on the news saying that he expects a leadership challenge to be triggered by tomorrow lunchtime. He isn't often wrong...
At this point, who would want it? I would predict a reverse leadership challenge a bit like pass the parcel...But then again.... Gove. oh f
