Well, Boris won't do anything unless the pressure is on, same as any other leader. I doubt fishing is the top of his priorities at the moment either.

Still, we shouldn't be in this position anyway.

I dunno how much I'm paying in energy prices but to be honest because Mrs Bread deals with all that.

The way l understand Equivalance JBR is that our bankers etc would
like access to sell services to EU countries as they used to?
But EU is now saying, quite, rightly imo, that we are no longer
members of the club and that rules will now apply? This allows the EU
to apply pressure to Boris regarding fishing although it is not directly
related to banking ?? Do you think my mind is too devious?? 😃😃

Donkeyman! 👎🤔👎

PS, not sure why our bankers don't want rules?

I think we can all see just who is obsessed - with fishing and petitioning.


For someone so determined to try and make a point in here why can you not answer the question?

To remind you:
I'm still waiting for you to tell us how your petitioning is going.


So far it's looking like the EU are not going to budge, but we've seen them shift at the last minute before.

Which instead of replying to in the correct thread you then bought here into the wrong part of the forum.

But as Bread said, if the EU refuse to deal with our financial services, they'll shoot themselves in the foot.

I say bring it on!

And if we deny them access to our fishing areas, and it encourages them to do this, that's a win-win for us.

As I keep saying, let us leave this pointless 'deal' and convert BRINO into BREXIT!

It was perfectly obvious that our financial sector including shares trading were never going to get an equivalence deal from the moment they agreed a deal to trade Swiss shares again.


IMHO Boris & the government knew full well that equivalence would never happen after seeing how the EU has been treating the Swiss.
In financial services & banking the rules have changed but it's not made anything like the difference that had previously been suggested, because in fact the number of UK financial jobs has actually increased.
BTW it's easy enough to find out why our bankers don't want to stick to EU rules if you look.

None of this has any real bearing on fishing and while you might think they are directly linked they are not.
Fishing was included in the deal agreed.
The financial sector was not.

I don't know quite how you think that the EU can apply pressure over fishing because of financial services when we appear to have already made our stance on financial services clear?
Like I say, it must be the case too because no way would the EU deal when we have a deal with the Swiss, and that much is obvious and has been for some time.
Certainly from well before the UK/Swiss trading deal was made official.

Ignoring the obvious rubbish about your non-existent BRINO, TBH if the EU keep playing silly beggars then leaving the deal (or certainly parts of it) is not beyond the realms of possibility.

My petitioning is going well.

Are you happy now? Does that make you feel better ?



And the EU are going to hand over their quotas now are they ^^^ ?

Just when I thought I had heard it all
