Well it seems the Right wing press are up in arms again claiming the government is pursuing a “Swiss style” arrangement with the EU. The ERG are getting all in a tiz that we are going to lose the benefits of Brexit, and have got all mental about it.
Is this just hot air? to draw lines again? Or is it the pragmatic approach to an unfinished brexit? |

A Swiss style arrangement would involve FOM and permanent alignment.(which would negate cptpp accession)
They just want rishi sunak pummeled by the tory electorate. And his rating dropping. |

Looks like it has been ruled out by Rishi, at least that's what I read but politicians may not always be 100% truthful |

We will be in again eventually. We'll sign up to whatever we need to, to survive. But of course we'll lose our veto. Brexit may actually have promoted European federalism. Not being in means we can't stop it. We'll be an associate country following EU rules. Ironic, really. |

"Brexit may actually have promoted European federalism. Not being in means we can't stop it. We'll be an associate country following EU rules. Ironic, really."
Ironic indeed.
And if the nations of the EU want to stand any chance for the future, they absolutely need to tighten up federalism right across the board.
Quaint little countries with quaint individual laws may have sounded nice in the 50's and 60's for holidaymakers, but that's a bygone age.
This is the era of the Superpower and Europe needs to redouble its efforts to deal with a resurgent Russian Federation, with one eye ready to meet China further down the line, whilst keeping the USA at bay as well.
The litmus test is, "Would Putin like it ?" and if the answer is no, then it's definitely in Europe's interests to pursue. |

Not to mention being able to say no to the US on things like tainted meat and cornsugar filled food. |

Crap food is cheaper. This was always the main benefit of Brexit , being able to buy shit from the US where there’s no standards. |

It's a benefit for the US/AUS produce industry. And a disbenefit for British people and British farmers. |
