Anyone like to tell me wtf is going on now? Is it looking like Johnson will accept a deal now?

I dunno. In other news I was listening to a podcast talking about disaster movies, and how they're better than reality because they never feature electoralism, and they raise the question of what's worse:
a) an asteroid, which someone points at and says, 'an asteroid!'
b) an asteroid, which someone points at and says, 'I voted for that'
c) an asteroid, which someone points at and says, 'I wish now I hadn't voted for that'

Who knows.
Were it not for the fact that these things always go to the wire id say with confidence No Deal...I just can't imagine these Tories agreeing to the level playing field bit. Deregulation is much more likely our future

Chances of Brexit deal hang on Boris Johnson and Ursula von der Leyen dinner
News that PM will meet European commission president comes as Michel Barnier says chance of deal is ‘very slim’
I wonder if he will attempt to grope her leg?

I wouldn't mind a tapering arrangement for fisheries.
Nothing wrong with a level playing field if we want to supply into the EU on a free trade basis, and we do.
As to policing the level playing field, I wonder what proposals are there at the moment? anyone know?
So those points resolved, there is the little matter of my bill!

Looks like Ireland will be drowned alongside the UK.

The price of a no-deal Brexit for Irish shoppers will be spelled out today with a warning that they face an immediate rise in the cost of many staples.
On the hit list for imports will be breakfast cereals, sausages, chocolate, electrical goods, textiles, potatoes, processed foods – even those using ingredients that originated in Ireland.
The overall burden of import tariffs on British food alone will be in the order of between €1.3bn and €1.5bn.
Mr Cullinan said delays since the original Brexit vote in 2016 followed by the Covid-19 pandemic had dulled huge numbers of people to the imminent threat.
“The normal consumer doesn’t get it at the moment,” he said
Despite massive efforts at market diversification, the UK is the current destination for 38pc of Ireland’s overall agri-food exports, including 44 pc of all beef exports, 41pc of cheese exports, almost 100pc of mushrooms, 20pc of lamb exports and a third of pigmeat exports."
We are fucked. Basically...
It's as if the people in the UK and to some extent in Ireland too, have slept through this . Like a frog in a pot of water that's gradually heating up.

This will come across as insane, but maybe they could just import the bread, the cheese and the ham and employ people to make the sandwiches locally.
Unless of course there are no pre-trained workers and sandwich making is yet another job that has to be done in Romania or India...
