My sources are telling me the UK negotiating team has basically caved in.

Boris has capitulated.

Still waiting for him to share his amazing spreadsheet with ‘added insight’. He studiously ignored all the points made last time he got brave and predicted regarding confirmatory referendum numbers based on the indicative votes. But he’s still an oracle. Apparently.

Oh hang on. Budgie may have an inside line to the EU negotiators. That would explain stuff.

Just like slasher was present during the negotiations between Nissan and the Gov and was able to reveal the true extent of the "giveaways"

I love that PH has members that are right in the thick of it and are able to communicate the true situation live as it happens

We are blessed

It’s not for public consumption, sorry.

It has proven to be very accurate thus far.

Not based on your prediction record here.
Aldrige Prior has managed to be more accurate than your predictions.

It's gone midnight, have we got a deal yet?

I see the ERG had a meeting with Boris yesterday.

Francois's face looked like thunder after and his only comment was "interesting".

What's the betting they have all been threatened with the sack if they don't back it?

If you were fair-minded, you'd point out that Francois always looks as if he's chewing a wasp.

Of course not but you can guarantee the crack British negotiating team have done a glorious job of working out who to blame.

I'm out of the loop here but is Deepend actually slasher (coloquial not derogatory)?

It certainly has been suggested that he has had several ID's here.
AJD, Slasher, Gloria Slap and at least one other alias have been mentioned.
As to the truth of any of it,.........

AJD/// was slasher. No doubt. Gloria brings back memories.

It's the constant Guardian quoting that does it for me.

I'd rather buy the coffee.

Ah, AJD///, I see where the slasher part comes from now.


I do find it slightly strange ,that whoever he is/was , he hasn't to date criticised the racism displayed
at last nights game.

After he claimed the other day to have only been here a year, and I must have him confused for someone else...

Then last night/this morning, makes it palpably obvious that he's the same returning poster, using the same bullst lines of debate...

It won’t be sent if he get something agreed today / tomorrow.

I've been struggling to understand how and why we have found ourselves close to a new deal at the 11th hour.

Parliament will struggle to approve a deal so late in the day, when doing so would allow the PM to ignore the Benn Act:

https://waitingfortax.com/2019/09/15/the-flaw-in-t...

If the deal was not ratified in time, we would then leave with no-deal.

My conclusion is that this sudden bout of compromise is intended to do two things:

1. Force Parliament to refuse a deal (yet again) adding to the Cummings / Johnson narrative that they are the enemies of Brexit and the people.
2. Force the EU to agree an extension. After all, why would they allow no-deal when we appear to be so close to a solution.

In other words, it is all a sham.

Not that simple.

Parliament also needs to agree it to avoid the letter.
