A letter to business leaders from three cabinet ministers says that trade will continue under unchanged EU rules during the post-Brexit transition period. LIKE THIS?

To do this the letter makes it clear that the UK will maintain continuity with EU rules throughout the transition phase. The letter goes on to say that it is their intention that the transition period should be time limited and that businesses will be able to continue to trade as they do today “……until it’s time to make any changes necessary for the future partnership.” It also says that: “EU citizens will continue to be able to come and live and work in the UK, with no new barriers to taking up employment. As the Prime Minister has made clear, we will introduce a registration scheme for new arrivals in preparation for our future immigration system, but this will not place any new burdens on businesses during the implementation period.” This will all look to many Brexiteers like an extension of EU membership. And certain items are glaring in their omission: There is no clarity on the status of the ECJ over the period, other than to say we will obey the rules. There is also no mention of how much this is going to cost and if we are required to contribute to the EU over the transition period on top of any so-called Brexit divorce bill. And on top of this, we now find out that our officials are in secret talks to extend the transition period out to three years. With the Sun saying: "Senior civil servants are said to be conspiring with their European counterparts to stretch the transition period until 2021 at the earliest." The establishment it seems is still intent on either keeping the UK in the EU or at the very least enforcing BRINO on us, which stands for Brexit In Name Only. If only they'd put half the effort into achieving Brexit, as they do trying to thwart it! And while our establishment is fighting the will of the people, the citizens of another country, The Czech Republic, have just re-elected Milos Zeman as their president and, as well as standing on a platform of being tough on immigration and building closer ties with Russia and China, he has also unnerved the Eurocrats by not ruling out the possibility of a Czech in/out referendum. Defying the Brexit doomsayers, the banking giant UBS has said that it intends to keep as many jobs in London post Brexit as it can. With the bank's CEO saying that: “In general, we are going to try to keep as much as we can in the UK, as a firm.” Another Remainer doom bubble popped. Now, a lot is being made of a recent poll that claims to show that the people of the UK now want a second referendum. Although the numbers show only a small lead for remain of 51% to 49%, this is the same sort of results seen in the lead-up to the referendum itself, where polls consistently underestimated the actual leave vote. But the poll also shows that there is a 16 point lead for those who want a second referendum on the deal Theresa May's government gets. One of the key finding of the poll was that there was mounting concern about the impact of leaving, with 43% of voters worried Brexit will have a negative effect on the UK economy. And I put this down to two things: The first is the continual flow of predictions of doom and gloom coming out of our establishment and those with vested interests who are perfectly happy to peddle their pessimism in the hope is will spread like an unwanted plague. The second is that Brexiteers left the game too early; I don't think any Leaver could argue with that. We should have continued on as if we'd narrowly lost the vote. We should have increased our efforts. We should have been laying out our vision of what a post-Brexit UK would look like. All we did was hand the Brexit ball to the Tories and trust them to deliver, they haven't delivered and they won't deliver. We have given those that want to see the UK subsumed into a unitary controlled undemocratic EU, masses of sea-room from which they can conduct their campaign unopposed.
