No deal is better than a bad deal was a lie.

Quote:
Theresa May's Brexit backstop plan risks a "stalemate" and "protracted rounds of negotiations" with the EU, the full legal advice on her deal says.

Newly published documents show the PM was told an arrangement designed to prevent a hard Irish border could last "indefinitely" and the UK could not "lawfully exit" without EU agreement.

What's becoming clearer is how Prime Minister May has scuppered any decent deal with the EU. As a Remainder this is an excellent outcome for her. The deal ties the UK in definitely to the EU. Is it time to tell the EU to go fuck itself?
