    Deal.

    People seem very positive about it, big relief.

    Fair play to Boris.

    Wee Jimmy Krankie crying like a bitch saying Scotland didn’t vote to leave...

    Someone show her a UK map.

    Oh and millions of Scots didn’t vote for her either but due to democratic process she was votes in.

    That Blackford bloke who no one likes a d everyone ignores is beelin away on Sky. Comedy gold.

    Will wait to see what deal has been put together before I say I'm happy or sad. Anyone could have gotten a deal, getting a good one is the issue.

    She did. It didn't pass but I bet, with time, BoJos deal isn't too dissimilar. As I say we shall see

    She still struck some deal with the EU. This one hasn't actually been passed by Parliament yet so Bojo might be in the same situation. I suspect time is on his side, unlike May

    The joys of politicking. The SNP are a single issue party whose record, in power, isn't very good.

    It will, but it will be harder for students to study abroad, theoretically, but I actually doubt students in the future will ever notice this difference.

    The biggest difference will be the points based immigration system, British people will also find it a lot harder to move to the EU, having a job before you move might become more necessary, unless you're a key worker of course.

    My cousin is completely unqualified for childcare and is set to move to San Francisco to work as a nanny for an American couple. We ain't got a complex open trade agreement with the US.

    The logic that it will now make moving abroad impossible is a myth to be frank.

    ****, I've just remembered me and the missus are looking at buying a house in France in about five years and moving there <laugh> (condition: it must be close to a golf course!). I reckon armed with plenty of dosh the Frenchies will let us live there!

    agreed. This deal will really piss off Wee Jimmy as she desperately wanted things to go tits up with no deal to give her a stronger case for independence. She’s just had to pack away her blue face paint...

    I'm glad it's almost all over. I see the fishermen are delighted with the deal :).
    Just the renegotiation in 4 years time to look forward to; oh, and the general election at the same time

    I think the deal was the likeliest outcome and probably the best both sides can hope for, but the Europeans appear to be more frustrated by the conclusion than the British side. Which Boris will of course take as a victory. The biggest change being that the Europeans were the more content with May's deal, than the British were, on a political level it is a victory for Johnson.

    I've felt, living here as opposed to the UK, that a big fear for the EU was having a second major competitor with a chip on its shoulder alongside Russia, one to its East and the new one to it's West. The best solution for them was simply concluding talks with the UK in a positive manner.

    The pro-EU papers are absolutely fizzing, talking about European history and how **** the UK is in every single aspect from the date of 1066 onwards, so on that basis the UK obviously won.
