On Monday, EU negotiators told European diplomats there was currently no basis for"meaningful discussions" and talks were back where they were three years ago.
He also raised concerns about the UK's"divorce bill" and the proposed role of the European Court of Justice, the EU's top court, after Brexit.to prevent a hard border returning on the island of Ireland - which if implemented, would see Northern Ireland staying aligned to some rules of the EU single market.
He said these options included ratifying Mrs May's deal, further extending the UK's EU membership, or the UK cancelling Brexit by revoking Article 50. Meanwhile, Mr Johnson is meeting his first foreign leader since entering Downing Street - Estonian Prime Minister Juri Ratas.The country's Foreign Minister, Urmas Reinsalu, said earlier that while the"reality" was the withdrawal agreement - including the backstop - had been jointly agreed by EU member states, there was still a need for continued dialogue in the coming weeks to avoid a no-deal Brexit.
Mr Gove said the government's preparations for no deal had been stepped up and"the days of drift that we have had in the past have ended".
The EU have been the problem all along.
Not negociate, renegociate !
Hot news! 🙄
No sh*t Sherlock!
Stuff um
TishUnderwood2 good riddance to them
Yeah cos Germany won’t need our orders for crappy BMW’s and Spain won’t need our tourism ! 😡
Goves ineptitude astounds me. The EU have said this is the deal. Take it or leave it.
Go Boris!
It’s not only about the money! Money doesn’t solve problems! Good governance, human rights, food controls, etc. So many GOOD things are provided by eu. Hard brexit will be many steps back for this country. My oh my.
Can’t wait for this madness to end. I am an eu citizen living here in uk and l am saddened by this chaos. If people really wanted out government had to work for years and offer a viable exit to their citizens. This is a mockery and eu is not taking any. Good for them.
Maybe it's because our Prime Minster is a knob?
The same position they've maintained all along, so this is a shock why?!
Good. Stuff the withdrawal agreement. Leave now.
The only reason the EU are being so intransigent is that they know the traitorous HoC will prevent a No Deal. Traitorous MPs know this, so in effect are working with the EU against the interests of the UK.
Just get the fk out
The negotiations are OVER. Britain screwed up. Why should the EU have to open up negotiations again? I wouldn’t!
What did he expect tho?! There u can see that they are not able to even listen to others! Just sad...
They negotiated already ....
But they did negotiate and the deal was the withdrawal agreement. 🤨 Me thinks Johnson and Gove have suddenly realised that they are now in charge and when it all goes wrong, they're the ones who'll get the blame, not May.
There is no renegotiation - that was made clear before BJ became PM. But now he’s surprised and blaming it on the EU. Their position has not changed. It’s just the BJ was arrogant enough to think he could do something different.
It was a big mistake allowing Hamster Gove another chance. He is now starting his own little media campaign to stir things up hoping to cause trouble for Boris and Brexit. He cannot be trusted remove him from the cabinet and put him back in his cage.
And what do you say BBC? Is he right?
Didn’t think we needed to negotiate because we are so amazing that the EU would just give us whatever we wanted.
Liar, simple as that.
The blame game has started already.
So it took less than 3 weeks for the new “Boris Bluster Cabinet Brexit” rhetoric to fall apart well what a surprise.
Rubbish
Quelle fucking surprise.
he truly is a chinless wonder
Fine 🇬🇧
Brexiters promised that we held ‘all the cards’ & ‘the EU needs us far more than we need them’. If so, no punishment would have been possible. If it was wrong, then the vote did indeed have consequences , consequences which were concealed from voters by the Leave campaign.
Brexit negotiations this far. EU : what do you have that we want? UK :
It’s reckless to say “let’s leave” and deal with it head on but at the same time, we all know EU won’t have it any easier. Make the call and move forward. Prep as much as possible and rectify along the way.
They should be shunned
They did negotiate h for years. Just because you don't like the deal doesn't mean that it wasn't negotiated :) :)
Yes how dare those Europeans stick to their guns and refuse to open negotiations even if we don’t really want to negotiate 🥴🤡🤨
Why is he surprised!! The EU been saying for ages the desk previously negotiated was the only deal on the table
Yet people would still prefer to take the current 'deal'?
This is because they know we are screwed without a no deal Brexit .
Really There’s a surprise. ☘️☘️☘️☘️
The headline should be better than this . The headline is 'Gove caught lying again, after effects of cocaine abuse or just a dickhead: discuss'
It's about time we had a government with a spine.
It's the EU that defines the properties of its own customs union and therefore for them to define how they want to protect it when we leave. However UK must be able to reject unfair WA - not our job to prop up EU protectionism via an indefinite backstop.
They’ve negotiated. You have a copy of the deal. Accept it or reject it.
Negotiate what exactly? Has the government seen sense and removed its idiotic red lines that make the deal on offer the only one possible? If not, there is nothing to discuss, the EU are not going to give a better deal to us than a member.
They are talking to everyone except the Brexiteers who have voted to be ignored for all eternity. Better get used to it captain scarlet...
What these guys are doing cannot be called negotiating. It’s called blackmailing and Ireland bashing. If they want to wreck their own country-fine. But we won’t let them wreck other countries. Europe stands behind Ireland. The US Congress too by the way.
Did the BBC challenge this michealgovemp crap. No? Typical.
Should of voted for RoryStewartUK
Because EU is a dictatorship
The blame game from a government who’s intent from the start was a no deal Brexit.
I'd like to think that we have done more no deal planning than the EU. So they will have more problems than is. Eg have VW, Audi, Mercedes, Renault, Citroen, done any no deal planning? I guess not.
😂 shock
This is a pack of lies from start to finish from Gove Why was he not challenged rigorously on this? Where is your journalistic integrity? In the end people will not trust the BBC to deliver impartial news if you continue to indulge these MPs gaslighting the UK population
They negotiated a deal, its called the Withdrawal Agreement which your government and you as minister approved.
I fixed your tweet Brexit: BBC 'refusing to acceot it'
BorisJohnson and michaelgove couldn't negotiate a children's obstacle course at the local play park.
Good
Now there's a surprise!!!
No change then🤔
The EU has been saying as much for months... Only the Tory Brexiters refused to believe it!
The EU should suck the moisture out of Angele Merkels ankles
Telling us what we knew 3 years ago.... EU will never give us a good deal. Time to get out.
Stick with it don't succumb to EU pressure
Send in Gove the negotiator
Er yeh, they have already negotiated
Gove lies.
Why didn’t the BBC challenge him on this blatant lie. The EU negotiated for years and offered several options, which we accepted but then May couldn’t get it through. The BBC just let Tory MP’s come on TV, say a load of lies, don’t challenge them and then bow and say thank you.
As we say in Scotland, his birthplace, away and raffle yer doughnut!
I see you are reporting Tory propaganda rather than facts again would be nice to hear the proper story from a British media outlet, like yourselves. But with vested interests running our media, there's no hope.
You don’t say.
Jesus wept. As Theresa May said, it was her deal, no deal, or no brexit. The deal option has been rejected by parliament. Only the other 2 options remain. The EU27 gave us the extension on the express understanding that it wasn't for further negotiation.
EUparliament Brilliant we can keep the £39 billion. The EU are led by the Germans and their allies anyway.
He’s lying. They’ve told you the WA was it. Own your mess.
Oxford100 I don't think the EU game plan has this bit in it
Ha ha ha!
At least In Finland ”no” means ”no”! Is it so hard to understand that? 🇫🇮🇪🇺
😂😂😂what did you think? They clearly said it. So please don't pretend now to be the innocent ones. You all started this disaster. We are all waiting to see how you all conduct this orchestra. Good luck
Eu refuses second TMsigned the deal she fucked up big time. Yet by law we can leave with without or change deal Eu thought we were bluffing. Try it.
Good news
No deal it is then - simples!!!
Roll on 31st Oct
Now there’s a surprise- Michael Gove suddenly blaming the EU - no one saw that coming did they ?
They want to have their cake & eat it, but they also want all the cakes.
I think Gove is lying. The truth is that hard Brexiteers don’t care about a hard border in Ireland - waffle on about technology or something. Boris is not to be trusted either. They are trying to stir up hatred of foreigners - in this case the EU. Who, or what minority next?
Good.
This is now just an exercise in controlling the narrative. How depressing. An election by Christmas, I imagine.
That's because they closed negotiations Mr Gove you daft happeth.
What a surprise. A deliberate con strategy
Good. Now let's leave x
Really, wow ... refusing to negotiate..there’s a turn up for the books. Maybe he should ask again and see if they’ll change their minds, PM Johnson said they’ll negotiate, perhaps the EU didnt get the memo.
RevokeArticle50
We have negotiated until there is nowhere to go. Cleverly however we will be in the solid negotiating position of “deal-less” on November 1st, just watch them offer us the BEST there is.
Would you negotiate with this man!
'let's blame europe' tactic in full swing
Horrible man still peddling misinformation.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
Is that not what the last government was saying? Why the surprise? votenoneoftheabove
Fake News
So this is the UK now finding out that the EU are a lot more powerful than they thought and they infact do hold all the cards. Maybe we do need the EU after all 🤔
So we got rid of TheresaMay so BorisJohnson can get a better deal, then we find out exactly what we knew all along..... the EU wont renegotiate the brexit deal! How are they not held to account for incompetence or lies?
Utter horse crap!
Guess we're out then 🤔
Nothing to negotiate we want to leave Gove cannot be trusted.
Is the Pope a Catholic?
Ermmm, they did negotiate, that’s how we’ve ended up here
Lighthouse refuses to budge says aircraft carrier.
We all know whose fault this is, Gove. Now No Deal is imminent, I’m proposing a national registration scheme for all current Leave supporters. Just so we can make sure they are FIRST to lose their job, lose their medication, get their food ration book and their blue passport.
Oh dear. The EU don't seem to have a plan do they? Now they're faced with real negotiations
No shit lol, man surprised when EU does what it said it would do.
Well they haven’t negotiated for 3 years why did they think the unelected arrogant tossers would start now ?
The responsibility for a no deal Brexit will rest fair and square where it’s deserved - on the current Government. Let them not forget it !
Oh well.
You would negotiate then parliment would reject it then vote of no confidence just a never ending story
The deal was agreed by both parties. So what's to negotiate?
Oxford100 It was always going to end up as no deal. Only the BBC are surprised. The EU's strategy all along was to offer us a punishment beating and hope we bought it. If you think the EU are our friends you need to wake up.
Worm tongue at it again.
Just leave then, end of story
OLD NEWS GUYS. The EU was perfectly clear that there would be no more negotiations. May negotiated a deal which Parliament rejected... the ball was in our court
The arrogance of this government continues!!
Good--soon be ride of the bastards. Tough luck FBPE troubled. Treason never was popular.
And they wonder why the majority voted to leave?
Aren’t we also refusing to negotiate?
Hey ho 👋🏼👋🏼🇬🇧🇬🇧
Ermmmm Europe has done it's negotiation with the 'lady' so suck that Boris GoveGovy
Are they? Well fancy that - didn’t see that one coming...🤪
Just curious. During the course of human history, how many times has a person, running out of time and obviously desperate, managed to get a better deal from someone who doesn't need it?
our woeful hardball psychology is fooling no-one
We are out don’t need a deal let them get on with it.
Aw boo hoo hoo! Your the ones that are leaving, what part of that do You not get!
He must think we all sailed down the Clyde on a banana boat. Unbelievable. Government and opposition in-fighting to blame for this complete and utter mess. Parliament has failed and we want a new one!
Why are you lying, BBC?! That is a gove liel! The negotiations with EU have finished and UK parliament said NO! This is the truth, not the sensational headline you malevolently use! I am disgusted that we have to pay for this misinformation! StopBrexit CancelTheTVLicence
Most of Brexit sounds like montypython Life of Brian sketch - from Judean People’s Front & splitters hatred amongst UKLabour related to anyone anti-Corbyn to Toryparty EU wont haggle StopBrexitSaveBritain NotMyPM StopBrexitSaveDemocracy
michaelgove Negotiations concluded months ago.
Gove couldn't organise a pee up in a Brewery Let alone a deal with the EU bring Back the Muppet's at least they can

How's 'holding all the cards' working out michaelgove? ByDonkeys
Better get a wall built around Northern Ireland. The EU gave us a crap deal that we did not want so they want us to standby the bad deal. Arrogance will cause more problems.
Everyone else fault but our own, things never change.
Good for them to take a strong stand on lairs like you michaelgove & BorisJohnson. Well done EU_Commission 👏👏
This supranational body won’t haggle
It's a bit like Man Utd blaming Liverpool for not negotiating the sale of Salah even though Salah is not for sale.
Pure propaganda from a representative of a government that is indulging in skullduggery.
What he’s saying is spot on. So balls in their court. Whine at EU
🤡
BeddoeRoger The EU have negotiated a deal with the Tories with the backstop they wanted ! May signed it and Gove backed it and voted for it as did Boris in the end ! It was s bad deal but they were happy with it especially Gove and now its all the EUs fault there's no deal
Time to leave then, no point in waiting for 31 October. BringOnBrexit
How convenient. Brilliant excuse .
Every time remainers say they can stop no deal, it gives hope to the Eu that it will be stopped, and they sit and wait it out & let remainers do their dirty work for them. Now time is running out and BorisJohnson seems to be serious, we now see panic setting in from the EU
Yes now fuckgove
The negotiations ended nearly a year ago. He’s a first class wanker at best.
In fairness there was no negotiation the first time round. They offered a deal take it or leave it. Why would we expect them to start negotiating now. For the survival of the EU, Brexit has to be a failure. Why dont we get that.
Arghhhhh! Sorry. His stupidity. Maddening.
But the Eu say they want a deal but the one deal offered has been kicked out by MPs so what is the point of the Eu saying that we must have this deal they know the deal as it is will not get through Parliament so if they want a deal we both need to getting talking, very silly
Well, to be fair, they did say that this would be the case.
The blame fest. Useless charlatan
BorisJohnson 10DowningStreet stand firm! There bluffing! And if they ain’t who gives a toss 🤷🏼♂️😆
Wasn’t it Gove who told the nation, the day after we choose to leave, ‘we’ll hold all the cards?’
This is just the beginning. Gove says the EU won't negotiate. Then Boris will confirm it. That will be used as the excuse for the hard Brexit that they have been claiming was unlikely. And when everything goes tits up they will blame the EU and remainers for not having a deal.
Oh wow what a surprise! These politicians are a joke.
🤣🤣🤣you don’t say🤣🤣☺️
EU refusing to blink.
This guy has nothing on Baldrick. Vote of no confidence/ GE and let’s kick him and his cronies to the kerb.
What a surprise.. Well they bloody well will want to when we leave.
Idiot
Tell them where to go and let's move forward and start making trade deals elsewhere sooner than later
No sh*t Sherlock
Not that I liked Theresa May but after all the slaughter most the MP’s gave her is he now saying that they can’t even negotiate a deal? Great work Parliament 👍👏 🙄
Utter tripe!
Best news I have heard all year no deal Brexit it is then
They have already negotiated. Gove knows this
Why do the EU want to make it so difficult for the UK to leave Europe Is it because they know they need us more than we need them?
Why would anyone be surprised that the EU isn’t willing to renegotiate the withdrawal agreement? It sounds like they’ve come to terms with a no-deal Brexit and are prepared to take the hit. That’s not to say that folk in Europe will be happy to accept any loss though.
Brilliant, we all know where we stand let’s ramp up the preparations
Fck em then ....roll on 31st October 😊
My flabber has never been so ghast; knock me over with a feather I never seen that coming and I suspect neither did the cabinet. Goodness me what shall we do next? Thank goodness we have such powerful, honorable and decisive leaders. Yours I. Rony, 13 Unlucky Av, Godhelpusdale
They have already negotiated with HMG and reached a deal with the appointed negotiators!!!
Is this one of those strange games they play at Eton? A game where everyone gets buggered and loses their shirt? MichaelGove
Their loss 😋
Buy we won't start talking about anything till the NI backstop is gone?
The EU said A LONG TIME AGO that there would be no renegotiation.
Lying Gove.
gove is lying the eu will negotiate it was BorisJohnson that said he will not talk if the backstop was not thrown out. You have to talk to change things in brexit. The conservatives tories are trying to blame LeoVaradkar for boris and brexitparty mistakes .
Is this ‘man’ totally thick! The negotiations were over a long time ago. The deal that your party offered was accepted by EU. Why should they change their mind because parliament can’t accept it! It’s over.RevokeArticle50
If the EU will not talk then we walk.
Yes ? It’s refusing to negotiate with a bunch of weak fcktards who have shown the whole room their cards and are holding a pair of 2’s and nothing else? What did you expect Gove?
Penfold, or Michael gove? , I cant tell em apart!
No point waiting until 31/10, then. WTOBrexit now!
Spot the difference, exactly, there is none!
EU Nov-Negotiations r closed Dec-Negotiations r closed Jan-Negotiations r closed Feb-Negotiations r closed Mar-Negotiations r closed Apr-Negotiations r closed May-Negotiations r closed June-Negotiations r closed July-Negotiations r closed Aug: UK They won't negotiate!😡😭
Gove is an idiot. Ignore him it makes life better
Well Try to Deal With Children you must expect TANTRUMS
I don't understand why Tory idiots are blaming the EU UK wants to leave BUT wants to leave the Irish border open between Non EU UK and the EU. UK wanted to take back control of borders as it hates free movement and open borders EUCouncil EUCouncilPress Brexit BorisJohnson
Remind me who set preconditions for further talks? lyingTories
When you think it can’t get any worse, Gove gets involved. What a national (global) embarrassment.
Who have we sent to negotiate
They don't need to do anything, Theresa May gave them the deal & now the UK wants to change it.....What part of don't waste this extra time we were given or no re negotiations are you not getting? michaelgove
What a joke! When UK 10DowningStreet BorisJohnson has refused to meet any EU leaders... I'm struggling to find an emoji that properly encapsulates this one... 🤔🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤯😤 I really did think michaelgove was better than this... 😕
Why, because the Dumb media in this country keep giving pro Remain statements, which favour the EU negotiating. The MSM are a fifth column these days.
After months and months of negotiations are done, agreed to by 27 countries and signed off for by the PM at the time, suddenly the EU won’t negotiate anymore 🤔 how bizarre(!)
UK gov going for ‘keep whining until they give in’ approach! Like a toddler begging for sweets!
Good, we get to leave properly then..
Good they can get stuffed!
Liar
And he’s surprised, how
Like they said they would................. moron charlatan
We have already done the negotiation, michaelgove, following the unrealistic, misleading and disingenuous 'we can have our cake and eat it' promises that you and others including Johnson NotMyPM made before and after the referendum. They have led to this BrexitShambles.
Good let’s just leave.....
No one listens the EU is a modern day edition of the nazis
3 years wasted. We should have said ok the first time around and left the EU. What a crock of💩
They already did, line by line of 40 years of entwinement, they sold the Backythey did not chose, May did after been threatened by the DUP. EU sold it to 27, you could not sell it to one tiny party with 10 MP’s, time to look in the mirror to see who is been stubborn.
How do intelligent people like Gove manage to spout such arrant nonsense? Do they shut off their ears as they speak? Or do they hold their fingers crossed behind their backs? Or both? I can't imagine how he can watch himself on the telly without cringing behind the sofa. NotMyPM
The EU would say that.... It’s called negotiation
Oxford100 It’s wonderful when remainers get upset. What happened. 6 months ago no deal was off the table. Now remain is off the table as is the WA. I feel the pain of remainers as we leave on 31 October. No more BMWs. We will drive Toyotas and drink Australian wine.
Let's face it...none of you clowns are a Thatcher.
Brexit: An evolution of deceit & dissembling. 1. 'They need us more than we need them.' 2. 'It should be the easiest deal in human history.' 3. 'No deal is better than a bad deal.' 4. 'They have to believe we'll walk away.' 5. 'Shit. They believed us. We're screwed. Blame them.'
The man is a fool!
Mikey, trying to be a wee bit disingenuous, the negotiations are done dusted and dried.
Then Gove is the idiot we all suspected him to be!
No point in the EU holding on to an “agreement” that the British Parliament has rejected three times. Sensible to open negotiations again before tens of thousands of Irish jobs are lost. Just saying........
michaelgove BorisJohnson BorisJohnson_MP Negotiations were completed months ago. Your finished! New government needed. One with the balls to say stop this nonsense.
When negotiations over issues imperative to the welfare of a nation fail without possibility of redress, the only possible recourse is WAR! Britain should immediately declare war on the E.U.! I would.....
Need to bring in a world class deal-makers Michael. I think you know who you can rely on...
They 👏 said 👏🏻 the 👏🏼 negotiations 👏🏽 were 👏🏾 over! This shouldn’t be a bloody surprise!
More accurately ‘Role over EU, give us a deal or the UK gets it’.
Yeah well so is Boris.
😂😂😂🙈🙈🙈🙈
🤦♂️
Give it til mid October then watch EU scramble for a deal.
Crap, the EU have done all they could and they have had enough !
Wrong - EU don’t have to negotiate at all and they have agreed a withdrawal agreement
I can't say as they've ever negotiated, they've only ever dictated and if u think any different your a fool
No. Johnson is refusing to negotiate. Never had any intention of doing so. Stop lying.
michaelgove this is just to let you know that it’s getting too obvious that this finger-pointing game is just to explain why Brexit hasn’t happened at all on 1st November.
The EU have already agreed a withdrawal deal with the then Prime Minister - Mr. Give means the UK wish to renege on an agreement signed off by the PM.
What did you expect Gove Your lot had 3 years of negotiating & failed. So you just resigned. Who could take any Brexiteers seriously? The misinformation continues to be spouted by Boris & Co on a daily basis. Put it back to the public if you think you are right!
You're leaving the golf club but still want to drink at the bar?
So you claim — it’s Boris that’s causing this
They’ve already negotiated you effing throbber! Wtf do you think the last 3 years have been about? Seriously why you print this load of old pony without challenge is beyond me. Actually it’s not and that’s the worrying thing these days.
He has zero credibiity! Ramping up the EU resentment! A month ago was backing TM and WA!
Maybe if Boris the Bullshit hadn’t spent the last month threatening no deal !! All a Tory party game !!
What does he expect?
Time to initiate a hard brexit, and cause Germany to slip into a deeper than already recession, so they come back to the table.
Don’t report these lies, challenge them. That is your job! Months ago the EU concluded negotiations with the U.K. - nothing has changed!
This all reminds me of the movie 'The Lady Vanishes' where a train load of British were stopped by the Nazis and one of the toffs said 'They can't shoot us, we're British!' - the shock that anyone would have the audacity to say no to public school boys would be funny if not sad.
Fog in the Channel. The Continent is cut off!! :)))))
Surely he’s not surprised by this?
Another lie michaelgove
EU: Negotiations ended a few months ago GB: That was with Teresa May, we have a new PM EU: Whoopee fucking doo GB: You're so unreasonable! EU:
Thanks bbc. I need a giggle today.
The EU did. Clearly, a capitulation is what Brexiteers want.
Of course refuses to negotiate. There's nothing to negotiate. EU have been negotiating the Brexit for almost 3 years. You have ghost on your backyard (northern Ireland) ot our problem is your problem. Resolve the issue, don't expect EU to resolve the problem of Ireland border.
He knew already as we have been told numerous times, what a tool
😂😂😂🤡
Jerryfurmanto brixit all together! truth
Jerryfurmanto I am not surprised ! in the least they started it out of a joke hard to Believe.but the joke become more popular as time went by.they want to not only destabilise the uk haveing been in the eu for over 20 years.they piss anted around in the last 2 years.if I was in charge.i void
Man called Gove found to be an idiot
No shit?
They’ve negotiated for the last three years in good faith. Just because we didn’t have our house in order is not their fault. Vote for the WA and we can all move on. Or revoke A50 and end this utter farce.
No sh1£ Sherlock! - are you peddling this as new news - has been the EU’s position since before the last attempt of May trying to get her deal through playground - sorry I mean Parliament...
Their loss
No shit!
So the blame-storming begins in earnest. Michael 'we hold all the cards' Gove helped make Brexit (not The EU) and it remains the UK's problem to solve.
No deal means no British flight ✈️ will be able to used any of the 27 EU members air space so no flight ✈️ from uk to any part of the world.France open up its borders n allow I migrant through the British channel.weldon BJ u r smart 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
They have told you all along. Now don’t give excuses and point the fingers at them.
Who you gonna call
Really. You just found this out? And you feel it will give you some extra kudos to broadcast it as if it were news, Mr Gove? 🙄
SURPRISE SURPRISE 😅🤦🏻♂️
It was clear from the beginning, no way that an undersigned agreement can be re-negotiated
Then you've lost, brinkmanship goes both ways. Now stop a no deal, if they've seen your hand you don't go all in.....unless 🤔 you're betting on us loosing.
This is why our government is inept and stupid. The EU have said from the beginning that the deal is not negotiable. Thick pieces of shit like Gove haven't got the point yet.
Did I miss something? Did we not agree a deal and cabinet sign it off? If we did not like it then why did cabinet approve.. was Gove not a member of that said cabinet? To blame EU is a tad rich! Incompetent & inept does not come close describing our Government!
So no surprise there then - after all they’ve been saying it all along.
Here we go getting the media primed to blame the EU for the Tory shitshow.
'I walked out on my girlfriend and now she refuses to negotiate the sex. How unreasonable!'
Swivel eyed Brexit loons’ plan falling apart already. They’ve only been in power for less than a month. Silly sods.
Duh!!
Blame the EU. It’s their fault that we voted to leave. 🙄 Clown.
The BBC refusing to challenge obvious lies.
Good. Thought the brexiters wanted a no deal anyway. If that's what they keep saying why should the eu waste their time.
Unless UK shifts its red lines, what is there to negotiate? Ffs
Really, this headline, with that dick in the foreground? Imbeciles on all counts
If they dont want to renegotiate, No Deal it is then, they are losing their 3rd biggest contributor , (the worlds 5th largest economy), one way or another 🤔
What did they expect? Hardly shocking news is it
Not negotiate? Of course they are not, have they not told you that for nearly 3 years? SO it's either no deal or deal? Two choices oh actually there is another one, ask your employers the voter, if they'd like to carry on with Brexit...
Fair enough. Leave no deal. Crack on.
What a surprise!!!
What? Refusing to negotiate with Bumblecunt Johnson? Oh say it isnt so!! 🤣
thought they wanted to leave EU, trade with USA and be dictated to by the Americans
Their economies are on the down anyway, they can blame us, when the proverbial hits the fan over there.
Dear michaelgove; they don’t need to come back and negotiate. When one side is satisfied with what they secured in a discussion they don’t come back. Seems you lot are stuck and now shitting yourselves.
Who would want to negotiate with a back stabbing weasel?
michaelgove talking complete nonsense! The fault isn't with the EU it's all down to the Tory Party! Brexit is a confidence trick and should be stopped! Then consigned to the history bin where it belongs! Revoke A50 now!
The EU negotiated for two years! Imagine if the EU said they wanted to take bits of the deal out and renegotiate it because they couldn’t agree to it back hone...we’d tell them tough shit that’s the deal if you don’t like it screw you.
Why waste more time on a UK that dont have a clue on what they want
No Deal it is then thank you very much I'll take that 🏴🇬🇧🏴 Brexit roll on 31st October
What’s the collective name for a bunch of “incompetent assholes”?...’conservatives’ perhaps
You’re being dishonest michaelgove The EU have negotiated, they agreed a deal which included honouring the GFA. Some, mainly on the RW of the Conservatives refused to accept the agreement. All you know have left is RW propaganda of the 1930’s Brexit CorruptToTheCore
Correct move according to game theory. They want to push for Remain because WE can remain and that IS OUR best outcome. They do not wish to disincentivise that. Conversely, no deal is much worse for UK than EU. Read Nash
EU already know the fate of United Kingdom*
Negotiations are over for almost 9 months now. Get over it.
Bring on 31 October 2019! NoDealBrexit
Probably because you didn’t ask them nicely !
What? Never?!?
EU citizens are starting to get tired of these brexit quarrels. We’ve been negotiating for years! A good friendship means sharing, the good and the bad. If you don't want that, than please go and quickly. We have other friends to spend our time (and money) with.
You remainers have got blinkers on BBC and our own mps are making it worse for us and better for the Eu shame on you all
🤣🤣🤣
No. Refusing to renegotiate an agreement they’d constantly said was not open to renegotiation.
Of course they are. They don’t want it. What an absolute waste of time. This is what happens when you base a referendum on complete bollocks.
The EU have been negotiating with the U.K. for the past 3 years, all because Johnson is bragging about a NoDealBrexit doesn’t mean they’ll suddenly open up negotiations again.. 🙄
“Again”
'The UK rejects that view' When are these people going to realise that Brexit was a situation created by and voted for by the UK. The EU have said repeatedly that there will be no further negotiations. Typical of the UK to think that everyone needs to bow down to them.
😂😂😂😂😂 what a joke peoplesvote
Shall we just leave now then 👍🏼
You are refusing to accept your incompetence
Attention, lying BBC! The UK does not reject that view. The Tories have told you to say we have. The few raving lunatics currently pretending to be our government are NOT the UK.
In other news, water is wet.
Yeah? I’m refusing to marry Scarlett Johansen 👍🏻
How can you trust a word the serial backstabber Gove says, me I would trust the EU first
I'm sick of these lying charlatans. We had a deal, its obviously worse than the one we've got in place. No deal is idiotic and will be damaging for generations, all so some wealthy etonians can make a quick buck betting against the country they claim to represent.
KingOfWrong Excellent stuff. Long may they remain stubbornly determined to cut off their nose to spite their face 😊 A WTO Brexit is MY kind of Brexit 👍🇬🇧
EU already negotiated - take it or leave it. Or RevokeArticle50 and forget about the whole thing.
They've spent about three years doing just that. I'd be somewhat fed up too.
Tories don't like the deal they spent 3yrs negotiating can't blame the EU for having enough Ucking Muppet
But it was all going to be so easy . Oops
'we hold all the cards', yep, really crap ones
How many more times negotiations are over
Looking from the outside in, it seems silly that you leave the EU and than complain they won't negotiate. What did you think would happen? And it sounds as if you still have the same problems, the economy not doing well, & people making less money.
Yesssssss, bring on No Deal
Who cares... NoDeal me in please!
Threatening the European community, of course a no deal brexit will hurt Europe, but it's economics of size, it will devastate the United kingdom economically politically and constitutionally.
A Government of Fools. I cannot for the life of me think of any redeeming features for any of the current Cabinet.
EU does what it said it was going to! UK politicians are baffled by this strange behaviour.
People need to remember May and 'expert team' that concocted the deal. They should be shot with shit. Useless, all of them. And you at the give them a free ride all of the time. No wonder people are calling for the Licence tax to be abolished. Tell the truth FFS!
Really, I wonder why.
This is one of 3 new mantras. Lining it all up as the being the EUs fault when actually he should be saying unless we get everything the way we want it we are throwing our toys out of the pram. The other 2 are the undemocratic backstop and turbocharge 😡🤬😤😠
Boris is soon gone.
Didn’t the EU negotiate until the finalised a deal that May accepted? Wasn’t it always clear that the deal had been done? Changing one appalling PM for another one doesn’t change the fact that the deal has been reached. The only sensible way forward is Revoke A50
No doubt Boris went in hoping he could bully his way through an exit, he was very wrong. We do not hold all the cards & personally I think the eu has been more than fair they must be so sick & tired of May & Boris pulling all these stunts.They owe us nothing in fact we need them
well, fancy that bombshell !!!!!!
Sorry but I thought the negotiations had already taken place ( what happened in the last 2 years)?
They were told that already.. 🙄
Gove, you’re so predictable !
infinite_scream
Pretty sure the negotiations went on for 2 years and the deal was agreed to a timeline set by the dickheads in the UK government.
Who would've imagined it 🤔
No surprise
Lol... These fools
They have spent the last 3 years negotiating. Dealing with our clueless gov who want to have their cake & eat it, but have no idea what cake they want. We already have the best deal.
We are a laughing stock. BorisJohnson refusing to talk and yet michaelgove blames the EU. They made their position clear to May. Where are our workable alternative proposals I wonder? Tories clearly preparing the blame game.
Brexiters motto: “It’s always someone else’s fault”.
It's almost as if the EU had completed negotiations to their own satisfaction.
Who could have predicted this...oh wait everyone did in April
I blame jeremycorbyn & johnmcdonnellMP for this 'Mexican Standoff'
We won't be fooled - we were told the buck stops with Johnson. THE BUCK STOPS WITH JOHNSON.
They’ve spent the last 3 years negotiating 😴😴
But Mr Gove, we hold all the cards. But Mr Gove, no deal is better than a bad deal. But Mr Gove, we’re going to get a great deal. But Mr Gove, there are no downsides to Brexit. But Mr Gove, we are leaving at the end of March....
Good time to move on!
Then So be it , off we go.
You misspelled “refusing to obey us”.
What this MichaelGove? Co-convener and committee member of Vote Leave who broke the law that the MetPoliceUK are under orders to try and sweep under the carpet.
Does he mean renegotiated? All that in order to preserve the Tories 1 seat majority.
They already have negotiated for 3 years in good faith. So stop blaming the EU and accept you messed up and at least own your mistakes instead of passing the blame.
I have a vague memory of them mentioning something along the lines of 'non negotiable' when your then leader came up with the draft agreement along with the EU. Negotiations which took months & now you want a new deal because you have a new kamikaze leader to your Circus 🤡🇬🇧🤔
It's one thing to hold all the cards Mr Gove, but it's quite another thing to keep playing the same cards over and over. The whole gimmie gimmie gimmie tactic will always be treated with the contempt it rightly deserves.
Didn’t EU say exact same thing from when the negotiations started?
How surprising!
The EU have negotiated for 3 years - transparently laying out all options. The UK govt is being intransigent- demanding the EU break rules that we helped create! GTTO StopBrexitSaveBritain
ByDonkeys
That's fine. No deal
michaelgove you have an unelected PM with no mandate. It is the same government. They told you there is no negotiation and pointed out the terms. Your experts have told you the catastrophic effects of no deal. GE or bust for the UK.
That’s because the negotiation has been completed and put before parliament! Everybody knows that! RevokeArticle50
Because negotiations ended a while ago. They made that totally clear.
He forgets that the negotiations ended some months ago - if Gove thinks the UK is stupid enough tolisten to him, then he’s even dafter than I gave him credit!
That’s bollocks don’t lie
And there it is the Gove slight of hand, it’s the EU who are refusing to negotiate even though they already have over 3 years and it’s the deal on offer.
They did though. For 3 years. Speak to David Davies and Dominic Raab about it.
This Brexit gang will absolutely destroy the near future of a generation to come and yet shamlessly, blame the EU for pulling the trigger themselves....
This translated from Tory speak means - 'We've pissed away three years negotiation time with internal fighting and now we are totally and utterly fucked.'
The negotiated for seventeen months you POB faced weasel
What a load of ballocks , boris started this of by saying he was not negotiating until backstop removed.why do these tories lie constantly,it’s time to bin them.
The WA is closed.. What part of THAT don't Brexiteers understand General Election please.. ASAP! BBCPolitics
Of course..
I thought they had been negotiating for two years? You mean that they won’t negotiate again, and why would they?
Clearly missed the past 3 years of negotiations by a Cabinet of which he was part.
But we all know deep down, that they will negotiate, we just dont want to admit it.
THE NEGOTIATIONS ARE OVER... A DEAL WAS OFFERED... It was decided by MPs that a deal could not be found (including NO DEAL) that would benefit the UK if it left the EU... Being part of the EU is better than having a worse off deal... RemainAlliance
What a surprise ..not!
.... Oh really? and seriously - someone thought they would? Stupid? Ignorant? Or niave?
Totally undemocratic EU. Not accountable.
As it is michaelgove, nothing has changed. Our government has no plan, no consensus and most definitively no clue - and our PM just wants a hard Brexit so he can be the next Cromwell. The UK are the toddler who threw his toys out of the pram and the EU are right not to buckle
No deal Brexit it is then. 🥳
EU negotiated on everything that could be negotiated! They told TheresaMay theres no negotiation on Irish backstop . They must have repeated this millions of times !Makes you wonder if Tory MP’s have been genetically modified or just born as thick as pigs shit!
well in that case the UK simply needs to start the negotiations with itself and take back control.
So Johnson, Gove and the ERG overthrew May on the basis that they could do better eh? Mmmmm........
Isn’t Gove the one who said we would hold all the cards? Not working out too well.
After 2 years of negotiations what more is there to give?
Why would they. They told the last PM you all backstabbed out of a job they wouldn’t change it. It’s a shame that you’re going to fuck everything up with you lot in charge 😡😡😡😡😡😡
I thought the negotiations were over months ago! Has the government changed their minds? Wait...what if the public have changed their minds? Shouldn’t we ask? 🤔
Too much to expect the BBC to investigate who is actually shunning talks? Because BBC is paid by us for it to inform us. And because michaelgove is a lying coke head.
Takes two sides to negotiate as you were wont to tell us plebs over and over again. Why will we get a better deal now we have the man you said was not fit to be PM in post?
Ahh did you shit in the sandbox & now the other kids won't play with you...
A face that only a mother could love...
You mean 'UK has failed to propose anything worth negotiating on'? This is Tory intransigence and a failure of the right wing policies in the UK. We went in believing we held all the cards. We don't. We never did.
This is now the deceitful line being peddled by a deceitful lot. The EUs position is clear. It was clear from the early stages of the negotiations. These people were in May's cabinet. Failure to negotiate their perfect Brexit is not the fault of the EU.
Why should they?
That's arrogance for you it was made perfectly clear what the EU position was months ago!
Huh who could have foreseen this? What an absolute shocker. It’s almost as though they warned you 209 times that this would happen you bloody muppets
Surprise , surprise ....

So, the EU didn't capitulate, the way borisjohnson said they would, during his Conservatives leadership campaign. On that basis, surely Boris, michaelgove and the rest of this failed government, must dry their eyes, resign, and take it to the country?
👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
Can the UK just NOT leave the EU? Is there a penalty if you remain?
Why should they? They probably can't wait to see the back of us and I can't say I blame them 😪
Well of course. They are not going to do anything else while you all prat about!
They’ve spent two years negotiating, which I assume has cost them a fortune in time, they’ve extended deadlines. What do you want next them to roll on their backs and submit?!! aintgonnahappen
Indyref2NOW
Its really quite funny seeing all these EU bods with their fingers in their ears going 'La la la la ............' like kids in the playground. How do they know whether there is anything to discuss unless they open their minds, have talks and listen?
The EU's position is ridiculous.
Nice try you donut. You own this fustercluck now. Buck stops with you and Doris.
they did your government agreed on a withdrawal agreement with the EU sadly you dishonoured that agreement now there is no way back the EU have told you there must be a backstop
They’ve spent the last two years negotiating...
They gave you two years to negotiate and tories tried to bully them into submission. You hate that they don't tolerate your entitled air of twattery
Surprise surprise torychaos
To be honest you'd think they would be desperate to negotiate to get rid of the UK out of the organisation they have worked so hard over 70 years to create! Now I understand Mr Gove's frustration!!
