Re: Is Brexit over ??
You're spot-on about more people now understanding just what the EU are really like.
As for the last bit, we'll have to wait and see whether or not there are enough likeminded people at that time.
The signs so far are good that the country will prosper despite the few hiccoughs (and some vivid imaginations) but we all know by now how quickly things can change.
Four years is a long time and if indeed the country is doing even reasonably well by then I suspect that Reform UK is going to struggle to get any worthwhile support.
But time will tell.
*BTW*
I seem to recall seeing somewhere over these last few days that the EU were trying to delay signing the deal, supposedly because of delays in translation.
IIRC Boris has basically told them to get on with it without delays because we, the UK, agreed it quickly and they've had quite enough time.
Quite right too IMHO.
Ah yes, here we go:
' The end of February deadline for ratification is written into the deal, and both sides would need to agree for it to be changed.
“We and the EU agreed only last month to provisionally apply the EU-UK trade and co-operation agreement until 28 February,” said a UK government spokesperson. “The aim was to allow the EU a reasonable and proportionate length of time to ratify the agreement.” '

Heh heh, this might be an opportune time to (ahem) "persuade" the EU to rethink certain customs & import details.
