According to a Leavers' blog. By the way the
man's name has a capital B.
And to think the man is politely answering a lettre he received from british mps. He just as well could have passed it on to frost to formulate an answer. After all, it is a british internal matter.
Seems the UK is not united on this, in contrast to the EU. None of the memberstates have sent a lettre offering the UK anything. Probably most have forgotten about that renegade country.

Loyal? Going behind the back of the government's negotiator? I haven't seen such an action by EU members.

Not on the MFF, but since you are expected to pay your share of the recovery fund, on that you will be heard. Or didn't you read bread telling the UK will receive a grant from the fund. Or is this another case of cherry picking?

Coveny and Varadkar are now panicking too. They just realised Barnier failures will not only cost them billions, but everything they import has to come through our borders.

You want to open the discussion now on the ireland/north ireland protocol in the withdrawal agreement?
Anything in it you don't understand, me thinks?

Aaaah, that well used old chestnut again
- cherry picking by the British!

Well, you can call it whatever you like, but if it comes to grabbing, robbing, snatching, bribing, blackmailing, threatening, bullying, cajoling or cherry-picking, I say go for it, it still won't be enough to repay what the EU has picked from our bones over the past 40 plus years, but still a very nice feeling to know the shoe fits the other foot now. It's been a long time coming!

Well, european countries put the poor man of europe back in the saddle, only to see him riding into the sunset, singing I'm a poor lonesome cowboy.

I like that word Arena, it has a lovely ring to it and describes the Troll down to a "T".

Excellent post Shroppy.
