What do all these so-called deals, draft agreements, forward relationship drafts etc. actually mean. The UK trying to limit the damage. Whether they actually come to mean anything who knows. The only important news about Brexit is that the Brexit resistance (Croydon branch) has voted to fly the EU flag from my headquarters on 19th March next. Lol I remember a comedy show where the guy is in a row boat which is slowly sinking and he salutes the flag as he goes down. Yes I know that can be applied to both sides. Still Steeleye as you will be the last one leaving the EU please remember to turn the lights out.

'The political declaration is a separate, far shorter document, setting out broad aspirations for the kind of relationship the UK and the EU will have after Brexit, and is not legally-binding. Some of the wording of it is non-committal and allows both sides to keep their options open'. So basically it is the usual fudge, probably just a load of cobblers. According to Ken Clarke the issues that will effect us, and our kids futures, not that the gammon care as they just want to leave, come later in the negotiations after 19th March. I have seen this "Gammon” term increasingly regularly could someone please explain it (I get the impression it's from a tv series i don't watch, because I have no idea)

It's an insult aimed at the white right wing working class.

The leaked 'political agreement' is now available, and there will be no 'friction-less trade' with the EU. Years of negotiation resulting in us being far worse off than we are now. Bye bye EU. However it's done tis better than staying with those lefty neo liberal, corporate, anti American, anti democratic authoritarians.

I think your previous comments were more valid. Whoever put this document together was dining on waffles and fudge. No doubt each country will take from it what they want.

I think Becky is closest to the generally received definition of "gammon" though probably intended as an insult, it has the merit of being almost literally descriptive of those intended
It's a typical example of the high levels of hypocrisy on the far left......they spend most of the time accusing their opponents of being racists whilst using skin colour based insults. Edited by Stirlingsays (22 Nov 2018 3.53pm)
