    Isn't this just the sort of unaccredited newspaper report that you were saying last week was untrustworthy?

    He’s not my mate whereas you pay to be a Tory member.

    What’s your issue with it? I’m struggling to see where the hanging offence is in that short clip.

    I would have thought the following speaks for itself:

    DavidGHFrost:

    On 3rd country listings: the EU knows perfectly well all the details of our food standards rules because we are operating EU rules. The situation on 1.1.21 is accordingly perfectly clear. We have discussed this frequently with the EU including last week.

    Any changes in future would be notified to the WTO and EU in the usual way with plenty of lead time. The EU lists dozens of countries globally on precisely this basis, without any sort of commitment about the future.

    Yet it has been made clear to us in the current talks that there is no guarantee of listing us. I am afraid it has also been said to us explicitly in these talks that if we are not listed we will not be able to move food to Northern Ireland.

    The EU's position is that listing is needed for Great Britain only, not Northern Ireland. So if GB were not listed, it would be automatically illegal for NI to import food products from GB.

    What's the issue with it? Really Watford you are defending the indefencible. You need to say sometimes ’yeah I was wrong’ or ’yeah I agree’. You sound like you think you are always right and can't ever be wrong?

    So, what is the hanging offence?

    I’m sure I’m often wrong and there are undoubtedly people far more knowledgeable on all things politics and Brexit here than me. Maybe even including the Brexiteers. The vaguely rational ones rather than the crying, emotive ones.

    Like I've said before, opposition parties dont need to say or do anything. Just let the government continue with cock up after cock up. If it wasnst so tragic, it would be hilarious.
    Johnson needs an enemy to attack, it's in his and his parties nature, seems like they are turning on each other now so best leaving them to it.

    Thanks Ellers that's a compliment coming from you mate. I'm glad I only sound stupid sometimes, sounding stupid all the time must really do your head in.

    So did or did the government write and sign the agreement? Is it not the same government who paused legislative process to enable this to go through despite calls for further scrutiny? And is it not the aforementioned government now stating they will break international law to break the agreement?

    And yet this is someone else’s fault?

    A tory MP has resigned over this farce by Johnson. It's looking good
