When will this shit end?

Von der Leyen will be generous and diplomatic, Johnson will be smug and talk a lot of bollocks.

[steviewevie]

Quite an achievement by Barnier. He must be knackered.

[xxialac]

There was no gloating or boasting. And both of them thanked the UK negotiating team personally. Will Johnson do the same?

It's mental that this is all happening just a few hours before Christmas Day...

[xxialac]

FFS the UK have chosen not to stay in the Erasmus programme, which is such a great experience for so many young people.

Thanks Johnson you dickhead.

[Homer]

Johnson: everything promised to the British people has been delivered.

£350m a week incoming in a week then.

Was a unilateral choice on the part of the UK...no words

Ah no! you’re joking? My final year I lived with someone who was on Erasmus on their 2nd year and therefore had friends who were doing the same here during our final year, it was a great experience for them living in other countries but I made some great friends and learned about some great cultures too... what a shame

It's a truly brilliant thing for young people.

Seems so petty and spiteful not to stick with it when it was on offer.

And here's the blonde infant recording the moment on social media. David Brent levels of cringe.

Guess it's down to not wanting people to see how much better the other countries in Europe can be. And it skirts close to freedom of movement which is obviously not allowed

I'm sure these Brexit types will be thrilled when immigration from places other than europe increases...

Awful decision. Only logical explanation I can think of for not staying in it is to stop people abusing it and using it as a loophole for movement - but even still. Such a shame the next generation won’t have the option to benefit from it.

On the day we'll likely surpass hospitalisations of the first peak there is no place for a photo like this of the PM to be taken...

Exactly - white skinned 'dodgy foreigners' will simply be replaced with brown skinned 'very dodgy foreigners' that they'll be even more angry about.

Muppets.

That's precisely why they want to stop it unfortunately, can't have people becoming international and broadening their mind and experiences. Must start making the next gen a bunch of little Englanders! It is a genuine shame.

Next stop, revise the history books showing that Great Britain won the second World War and Gazza never got sent off and we won the Italy 90 World Cup heroically.

BREAKING: Amount of fish going from 50% now to 66% in five years.

The EU just said that we were aligned with their standards. Johnson just said we can make out own. Someone's lying...

[xxialac]

OK, at least Johnson has the grace to thank the other team's negotiators. I hate him marginally less (just the 99% hate level).

we can diverge, but then we could face tarrifs...so we probably won't.

"We want to be a collaborative science superpower".

I recognise all the words just not in that combination.

I cant imagine realistically we would diverge on anything worthwhile
