1. An FCO Official lodges a new legal instrument “instrument of ratification” of the Unified Patent Court signed by Boris Johnson with the European Union Council in Brussels last week:pic.twitter.com/2lDPOdbqGN
2. So Boris Johnson’s signature has just ratified UK membership of a new European court that “shall apply [European] Union law in its entirety and shall respect its primacy”... ... when Govt policy is to end the jurisdiction and primacy of EU law in the UK...pic.twitter.com/ZDmVjkKlwa
3. The Court that the Foreign Secretary has just signed the UK up to will be staffed by judges from different EU nations signed up to it, and its Court of Appeal “shall have its seat in Luxembourg” - sweepstake on how far from the ECJ??pic.twitter.com/oirAX4WMTV
4. The new Court will have serious powers in places where it has jurisdiction- freezing orders, inspections, injunctions, fines, corrective measures - so not just a minor trade tribunalpic.twitter.com/sN54iy4XLI
5. And though not a full EU institution, it is only open to EU members, is the result of an EU Council decision, the Johnson signature lodged at Its Brussels HQ... and refers to European Court of Justice on EU law matters “decisions of the Court of Justice shall be binding”pic.twitter.com/o4tV6MDaUG

Looks like I was right a couple of years ago!https://twitter.com/bencooper/status/749131713884876800?s=21 …
Yes - but who can UK Govt blame now for our problems?
In other words, the EXACT OPPOSITE of what the British people voted for - an independent Britain. The Tory party are a traitor party, working solely for the EU, & their globalist masters. They never had the slightest intention of allowing Britain to escape the EU's clutches.
Isn’t he threatening to resign if we stay in the CU? He’s bonkers.
UK govt's position on UPC: Ratification "should not be seen as pre-empting the UK's position in the forthcoming negotiations with the EU" and "is without prejudice to the UK’s future position on the jurisdiction of the CJEU." https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-questions-answers/?page=1&max=20&questiontype=AllQuestions&house=commons%2clords&use-dates=True&answered-from=2016-12-01&answered-to=2018-04-30&keywords=patent …
Now that we can all pretend it didn't happen because we didn't see it, or we're on holiday, I guess it no longer matters what we think we might be signing.
To be fair, before Boris signed us up to the ECJ he had Amber Rudd proofread the document.
You’d really rather stay in the EU I think! Anything is still possible if it were to reform enough.
The Tory party is a traitor party - working solely for the EU, while pretending to be working for the British people. If the main UK parties are not thrown out, Britain will be doomed to be first a globalist police state - and then later, an Islamic state.
I believe there is a cunning plan to break the running patent treaty free of the EU if Britain leaves. The way the treaty is worded it needs Britain to ratify to bring the system into being. That can only be done while Britain is still an EU member. Another reason to #stopbrexit.
Maybe do some research (which you clever, clever Remoaners are supposed to be better than us at) and it will be clear that this is a nothing story But I suppose it's fun telling your Remain mates how stupid you think Brexiters are for the millionth time...
