UK Internal market bill.

[Ribenapigeon]

Currently causing the Scots, Welsh and Irish mats great grief. Does anyone understand what exactly it does that they find so problematic?

Can't say I'd taken much interest in this till you brought it up

The UK Internal Market sounds a lot like making a pocket-sized version of the EU common market. Of course, someone has to throw out the diktats and formerly this was Brussels.

Unsurprisingly Wee Jimmy Krankie was fine guzzling on EU-cock but seems reticent to grapple with the Member for Henley

It's just an insurance policy against the EU meddling in our internal markets, as the name suggests. In Brexit talks last Friday, they implied they might ban £3 billion of agricultural products from going to NI from the UK mainland. The Internal Market Bill allows us to prevent such unwelcome meddling in our internal affairs. The Scots and Welsh also stand to lose from such meddling. I mean, who ever heard of such a thing, that you can't move goods and services within your own country's borders without the permission of a foreign power, or support your own country's industries and businesses? It's a joke.

It is 100% intended to benefit/safeguard the people of the UK in the case of unreasonable pressures being brought to bear from outside.

The bawwing is because we initially agreed to the treaty that would potentially have allowed said unreasonable pressures and it would make us look bad if we failed to abide by it.

The fact there is quite so much bawwing from the EU direction makes me think there was every intention of doing so.

The requirement for a WA before trade talks was a cynical ploy, a kind of blackmail. I've always said a WA alone is not Brexit.

Right that's it I think we should have another vote.

But we should call it a really nice name. 'People's vote' last time failed because it wasn't woke enough.

How about a BLMXR vote.

I'm guessing we could come crawling back, but the French would make us sh1t through our noses to do it.

I'm still unsure why the French hate us so much when we were on their side in the 20th Century wars (even Suez).

I just googled "Why do the French hate us?" Here's the answer:

TOP 20 THINGS THE FRENCH HATE ABOUT THE ENGLISH
1. We drive on the left
2. We are obsessed with the Royal family
3. Football hooliganism
4. We can't cook
5. We expect everyone else to speak English
6. We’re obsessed with tea
7. We think we're the best at everything
8. Why we voted for Brexit
9. Arrogance
10. Wearing socks with sandals
11. Our lack of variety with foods
12. Put ketchup on everything
13. Beer bellies
14. The fact the English seem to have no intention to learn any other language
15. Our obsession with football
16. Unruly children
17. The British take/interpretation on foreign cuisine
18. Brits singing songs very loudly (and drunkenly!) in the streets
19. No style
20. There are too many regional accents to keep up with

The above is interesting but watching the debate in the house of commons, there seems to be a big argument about how monies that would have gone to the EU from the UK are now distributed and spent. The SNP are up in arms over a minister in Westminster having control but I noticed a point being made in the debate that the SNP are happy for a gnome in the EU previously having that control and there being an obvious paradox to that.
Personally I think the SNP are scared Boris is going to go on a big spending spree in areas of Scotland neglected by the SNP regime in Holyrood.

If the withdrawal agreement was a hire-purchase agreement, it would be unenforceable in UK law anyway because it contains unreasonable obligations.

We made an agreement, we had every opportunity to scrutinise the agreement beforehand, we took part in the writing of the wording of said agreement, the agreement even has a specific get-out clause for use if either party is not working in good faith.

The Internal Market Bill is completely unnecessary from the offset AND breaking our previous agreement.

It doesn't make sense. It makes us look like morons.

I voted out, I haven't voted labour in years, I still think Ed Milliband said it best.

The concept of the Bill is wrong and I hope it fails. We shouldn't be legislating to break international law.

We break international law all the time.

This is small-fry.

You won't see proper breaking of international law until we leave with a restricted trade deal which does not include access to our fisheries and the EU member states continue fishing in our territorial waters anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if they make a unilateral declaration ceeding them access so what they are doing is legal under internal EU law.

Fishery access is what they want now. That's what they wanted in 1974. They have even offered a frictionless trade deal in exchange for it. They will continue to bargain in bad faith in order to railroad this through which is why the UK government have brought in protective legislation.

Mark my words, there will be cod wars with France and Spain next year.
