    Bernard Jenkin Retweeted A C Grayling #FBPE #PeoplesVote #RemainAndReform

    Barnier means that the EU is determined to inflict a punishment deal, which underlines what a vindictive and dysfunctional organisation the EU has become. Which is one of the reasons why the British people voted LEAVE. @BrexitCentral @Change_Britainhttps://twitter.com/acgrayling/status/1017059507187453952 …

    Michel Barnier: “It will be clear, crystal clear at the end of this negotiation that the best situation, the best relationship with the EU, will be to remain a member” Which is where a #PeoplesVote comes in.

        An extraordinary statement which says so much. Even a negotiated agreement which is better for all nation states making up the EU is not acceptable. It has to be worse, because as you say the EU oligarchy has to show to the other truculent members that this is a punishment deal.

        How can you build a better form of cooperation that starts by withdrawing from the institutions that facilitate it? Nobody has articulated a credible option that would be "better for all nation states making up the EU". Barnier's comment is verging on a statement of the obvious.

        I think the point is the other way round - even if the result of, say, the trade talks, is a thoroughly workable and sensible scheme in everyone's interest, there is a suspicion that this would be subordinated to a deal which left the UK (and others) worse off, as as a symbol.

        Essentially we have a choice between being worse off economically or worse off politically. That's always been the only choice, not because of the "EU oligarchy" but by the nature of what it is we are giving up.

        Not sure the two are mutually exclusive, but it is a point well made. I guess the question then boils down to what is more important, political freedom or the comfort that the EU may bring to economic well being.

        Dear BBC, you are confused. Here's a simple explanation. Leaving the Common Market/Customs Union is like building a wall all of the way around the UK that costs people and businesses time and money to get over, in both directions. Those costs are trade barriers.

        And this. Did you really vote leave to make the rich richer and the poor poorer? Because that's actually why the EIA and TPA want Brexit.pic.twitter.com/1UsXCnDSl4

        An interesting analysis. You demonstrate in your graph how the rich have got richer etc during the time we were in the EU and then seem to want to use it as proof of what leaving the EU would entail. IMO it demonstrates little, but surely it should be the other way round for you?

        The EU is a 40-year old jigsaw puzzle of trade integration. It has little flexibility to adapt for the UK, largely because of 70+ FTAs with MFN clauses which would need renegotiation if the EU diverged from its carefully-worked-out legal structure.pic.twitter.com/aXk3BuE0w5

        No. He simply states reality. UK cannot expect a deal as good as present full membership with all of UK bells and whistles. Do not try to blame the mess on EU if you are party to creating the mess.
