EU’s Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier told the European Parliament that ‘we are not really in a position to be able to find agreement with the UK’

BRUSSELS - The European Union said on Wednesday it was not shutting the door to a Brexit deal but stressed that London needed to change its stance considerably to secure an agreement.

“That’s why I think it is better now to focus on what we can do in terms of concluding that deal, something which is desirable and still, in my view, possible.” “What we are being asked for is in reality to accept a system that has not been developed, properly tested... it will largely be based on exemptions and deregations, on technologies that have yet been debated.”The Brexit Party’s Nigel Farage told the parliamentary debate in Brussels: “The referendum was very clear – we voted to leave the institutions of the European Union and to be free.”

European Parliament head David Sassoli said Britain now had a choice between a no-deal Brexit or a delay. “When we look at our future free trade agreement, it needs to be proportional to the British government about having a fair and level playing field,” he added.

Time for the EU to look forward and forget about the UK. Three years of messing around is enough. Just cut the ties and get on with life. It's all so stupid, but there's no turning back now.

Scumbags the lot of them.

Oh boy

If all wages across the country were cut by 20% when Britain went back on the God standard after World War One, what makes them think there won't be some kind of price for leaving the EU

EU tells British PM Johnson to stop playing 'stupid' Brexit blame gameThe EU accuses Britain of playing a 'stupid blame game' over Brexit after a Downing Street source said a deal was essentially impossible because German Chancellor Angela Merkel had made unacceptable demands Jacob owns Reuters owns Johnson. OK, so there won’t be a deal. Parliament has already rejected us leaving without a deal so can we please start revoking article 50 and let’s get the economy and life back to normal! merkel has been for the most part in the driver's seat since negotiations began in 2017, her resentment of the UK is also prevalent in whatever deals were emanating from brussels but also is her desperation that other countries will follow the UK's example in years to come.
