The European Parliament's Brexit negotiator Guy Verhofstadt says that talks are dependent on the red lines already set by the UK government.
Mr Verhofstadt told the BBC's Andrew Marr programme that single market membership would be the "best solution" for British industry.

The gross amount payed to the EU by the UK is the equivalent to the entire sum of payments by the thirteen member states that joined the EU since 2004, that's all of Central Eastern Europe, Malta, Cyprus and so on.
Countries such as Sweden and Denmark have already stated they won't pay a single cent more after the UK leaves and Germany and France are reluctant to fill the estimated £10 Billion per year black hole so isn't it time meaningful and fully transparent negotiations were entered ito instead of this 'tit for tat' we are currently witness to from both sides.
I've said it before and I'll say it again....the final option is always to simply walk away and if common sense is to prevail, we all know such a move will cause much damage to both sides and is actually very avoidable. |
