One option the PM could support would be a Canada-style free-trade deal which allows tariff-free trade for the majority of goods, but not include the UK's dominant service industry.
The government is understood to be angry about perceived attempts by Brussels to go back on an agreement struck in October as part of the Withdrawal Agreement,The PM is expected to tell the EU in the speech that he will accept no alignment, no jurisdiction of the European courts, and no concessions to any Brussels' demands when talks start in March.
The EU's own approach to the negotiations needs to be agreed by all 27 member states - which would be unlikely to happen before the end of February. The UK can request an extension to this transition period, but Mr Johnson has previously said he will not do so.
Not all of Europe's laws are bad. It's the ridiculous ones like 'the headlights on a car need to be between this exact height range' sort of rules that we need to get away from. Those laws are the product of the beaurocratic red tape buried mess the EU has become.
Boris Johnson still doesn't understand does he? If he refuses to 'take' the EU rules, they will refuse to allow UK products that do not conform to their standards (e.g.concerning safety of electrical products) to be sold in the EU. But I don't expect UK make such things now 😕
And they won't take yours.
Oh yes we will...
Best of luck with that. Considering you want be involved in making the laws but still have to abide by them for at least 11 months.
Petulance.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 when they tax all our exports, you'll see all those morons that were wearing union Jack t shirts in the pub wondering why their pint costs £8 . And then realise that as we don't manufacture ANYTHING the price of actually living will be too much for them.
LOL Old Boris sounds exactly like a teenager that's run out of the house screaming 'I've had enough, I'm leaving' only to discover that he's forgot to pack a bag and will soon expect his parents to let him in to get some stuff. The EU needs to let the UK burn to the ground!
No rules from Brussels but from USA 🤔... Let's wait and see 😂... The irony
After Brexit, the UK is a rule-taker, not a rule-maker. This is just pathetic bluster from someone who has years of experience of being all mouth and no trousers.
Let the Britons leave the EU on their own terms, but let the Scots out of it. Give them the independence they need. ILoveScotsInTheEU
I often wonder whether is actually run by the MailOnline The biased propaganda disguised as ‘news’ it broadcasts is astonishing and goes unchallenged, more astonishingly still.
Yeah! Fuck their human rights standards! 🤦♂️
So Britain will not be aligning to EU regulations with which Britain previously agreed? What’s so wrong about these regulations now?
He eats rules for brexfast and washes them down with a hot cup of steaming regulations
This is just rhetoric. The reality is we will have to.
Here begins the division sought by Putin and his oligarchs. Also exiting for Bolton (see nerd tweet) and the GOP bunch. Divide and conquer.
Haha what an egoistic baby he is. He has to stick to the rules. Otherwise there will be a huge downside. But he is too small to understand what he is doing... BorisJohnson
Knob head
For a news org so concerned with objectivity, the language in this headline isn’t. Try “Brexit: PM to refuse EU rules”. British readers are then left as a neutral third-party and not left implicitly represented by ‘we’.
Whiny man baby
'Your' rules? The UK helped make or voted for them.
Says the guy who allowed an effective border in the Irish sea and lost the support of Northern Ireland unionists. Wasn't that a Tory red line? He caved there and he'll cave again.
'We won't take your rules' says the man who just spent multiple months negotiating an 11 month period where we follow their rules without representation or ability to veto.
Wonder how long we stick to that line come the summer when election has worn off we will no doubt role over and play dead as we did negotiating before. I personally hope he sticks to his guns and waves the obligatory 2 fingers in the air to the EU
He’s lost the plot
Now the real negotiations begin. That said, the EU will want to maintain a trade deal based on the amount of products they export to the UK. The motor industry alone is a fine example.
Enjoy the isolation . . . and food poisoning.
He won’t take rules from Brussels (when we could have been making the rules jointly) - but he WILL take the rules from Trump when Trump says the only way you’ll get a trade deal is by accepting chlorinated chicken and giving the US access to the NHS! Not fit for public office!
Be funny if it was not so serious for the UK. Right now the UK is just a pimple on the arse of EU Don’t forget that. You don’t get to dictate. This is your Brexit, deal with the consequences.
Boris in 'Wants to have his cake and eat it' shocker.
So what if the EU decide to walk away as we won’t take their rules. Who we trading with again?
The rules are the same from Ireland to poland. So why do British people believe they are special and rules are for other people? Is it because they feel like they are a master race.
Big man!
It’s all over, then!
Sounds like we are going to cut off our legs whilst slapping the EU in the face. Ooh. That'll learn 'em.
The Russian report ?
Words are cheap. People are sheep.
'Every skool hav a resident buly who is fat and roll about the place clouting everybode.'
Give and take in negotiating. Whatever the deal is - a 2nd hand car or international. If we not taking rules from Brussels, whos rules are similar to our rules currently running. Then who? America? We getting rid of 5G already then! China? No comment needed!
🙄 Going to regret that,
Of you want a trade deal, you'll have to!
Don't like the rules, piss off out of their war room. You really think that 27 nations are going to bend over and get shafted by 'Al B J' the blonde Worzel Gummidge? Empire has long gone, 'Great' no longer Britain & KINGDOM is no more UNITED. N. Ireland proves that point!
...or your free trade
The EU....
As of yesterday the UK are rule takers, not makers.
Terrible journalism
Reality bites! What an utter disgrace he and his cronies are.
EU reply:
Good luck with that. Can we just skip to the end ie UK is the dumping ground for US crap, the NHS is run by BlackRock, British agriculture has collapsed, and the new PM of New Britain (because Scotland independent and Ireland reunified) goes cap in hand back to Brussels?
I agree with Irish PM's who has just said on BBC Andrew Marr show that what Boris has said this morning is just 'nationalistic rhetoric'.
So don’t take the rules and sell your fish elsewhere.
So brexit is going to be a hard one like he wanted .. can we say it's about the tax havens yet .. will the BBC actually look at that now even though it's own were named or just carry on ignoring it
As I've said previously being just belligent doesn't help things There's too much at stake for this PM political point scoring come rant at EU.
That sounds expensive! 😂
The Eton Fool Boris risks our economy by this intransigence of his toward EU. Playing solely to Brexit gallery that this behaviour clearly is, shows Boris's total unsuitability for the office PM. The Tories have now become just a factional Party run by Donald Trump pawns.
You don’t have a say anymore there’s more of them than you .you chose leave and that’s happened the rest is up to the EU 🤷🏼♀️
So....we aren't going to negotiate...we are going to demand..
We won't need their 'rules'. We have £350m a week more going into the NHS, so can't wait to see the massive improvements there, and an 'oven ready' trade deal with the EU, just pop it in the microwave. What's there to negotiate? He has got Brexit done.
No deal
Bit premature Michel Barnier has not formulated his dictates for democratic negotiations. That won’t happen until next month. Then the EU will claim UK has wasted time. RIP the annual cheque up and stuff it up their butts. That will focus minds.
This is a win win for the UK. We get to enjoy lower standards and less consumer protection than our EU neighbours plus they’ll no longer accept our exports. Ye, Brexit!
At this point it might be advisable to advise 'the country' that the class clown was elected to run the fifth removed. But an unelected pal from an unknown school writes his scripts; always of limited syllable.🙄 It's remote control out of control; think sorcerer's apprentice! 😱
Good ole Bojo hope getting a great trade deal is made considerably easier by those flattering remarks, after all your fingers up to the USA last week seems to have passed without a Trump twitter.
IF the UK-EU trade negotiations end up in failure, and we revert to WTO quotas and tariffs, what are the estimates of the total net annual tariffs paid going forward by each side?
you and that lot of scoundrels you lead won't, ghastly man
So much for taking reconciliatory approach to re-unite the U.K. and build bridges with our EU friends. ...tosser!
Could we sound any more like a bunch of colossal bell ends?
Which ones? I imagine the ones your thinking of are the ones that protect the public from rip off bosses and environmental catastrophe
Good, as it should be.
This would make sense if we were still in Europe.
Don’t worry BBC your job is done we are out,get over it. Now you have to hold your Prime Minster up with your vim and bluster. Not a good look. It’s no wonder people are turning away from you. ReleaseTheRussiaReport
I'm sure the govt can disseminate their own propaganda, what we need from you is analysis and fact checks
human rights-worker/union rights-civil rights-legal aid? what does this mean. hidden attack on our rights by the nasty party-the clown and the hobgoblin are making plans that will have an adverse effect on our lives. be vigilant people.
Three years on and the world is still spinning. Hopefully the Uk can work together for the good of the country. Those that are praying for failure should just leave this awful place as promised.
EU: “OK we’ll take your car, aerospace and pharmaceutical industries who’ll want access to a larger market and preserve their JIT supply lines!”
All this airless chest beating....sigh!
Blimey! Macron admitting we are leaving the EU, not Europe!! This blows a hole through the Remoaner's nonsensical arguments over many years!
He’s hard
Let’s all boycott the BBC, totally anti-uk news agency FACT !!
Three years in the since the world should have stopped spinning and its still going strong. Hopefully the Uk can work together now for the good of the country and those that are praying for failure can just leave this awful place as promised. 👍
Now what is wrong rules are they tit for tat rules-UK was out of EU at the stroke of 11pm 31st-UK than has a period up to a set time to sort out any-Swampy Bits & Bob's-Stop The Blame Game PM or is The Swamp starting to fill up around You PM & Your Buddy's.
Great, here we go now. He is throwing a tantrum.
So, can the rest of us ignore your rules Pinocchio Johnson.
SELLTHEBBC
Wont be trading with the EU then will we. And lowering standards for the US at the same time. Go on Boris bend over for trump and take like a man
So no deal then, just what the ERG always wanted.
We won’t have a border in the Irish Sea said The PM who then negotiated a border in the Irish Sea, bluster and lies.
So be it . Pay 42 billion divorce bill
🧐You can be stronger. 🥵You can be smarter away from bad 5G enterprises 🤔You need to unite Britain. Lead the country faster. Better understanding of participation in the international situation
Rules on employment, product standards, human rights... you know... the rules that support your rights...
Well, guess you have to deal with Trump, then. Wonder if that’s better?
Great so they won’t take our goods bloody brilliant negotiating strategy Johnson
And still it goes on and on and on 🤔 I voted to stay . I hope all you Brexiteers are happy. This ain’t an overnight fix . I feel sorry for the next generation as they have to live with this mess. We have denied them their rights. I remember pro Europe which was not good
🤔well see
Brussels had better be careful by acting very responsibly so as not stymie this transition stage which offers the brightest opportunities to discuss both partners' future trade relationship. A Brexit-Britain is under no obligations, not to walk out of if sabotaged by the bloc.
I'm finding this sickening if the EU negotiators are spuriously trying to bend the terms of the agreement struck in last October. Wondering what a Brexit-Britain is if the EU is trying to make the estranged member bloc abide by all its jurisdictions. They want to subvert Brexit.
Stupid!!
Oh Boris... you really don't get it. They is boss now.
Good, the whole point of leaving the EU is for the UK to have its own autonomy and be at anyone else's behest
lunatic
He should be prepared for the consequences... where's the TheClash when we need them most?
We’ve *voluntarily* gone from being rulemaker to ruletaker, thanks to BorisJohnson. If we don’t align with EU regulations - highest in the world, we’ll be forced to align with US regulations (much worse) or WTO ones (dire).
The EU is chock full of intelligent people who know exactly what his playground politics is all about. They're going to ignore him.
Shut up - just be quiet and do it stop talking
'we wont accept your rules' right above a comment about how he would accept rules
So glad your leader looks almost as shitty as ours.
The New Yorker's play book - Threat
The UK finally has a leader.
Idiots.
What rules !!!?
