Why A UK Brexit Deal With Brussels Now Looks A Long Shot

By Ben Kerrigan-

A real Brexit deal between Britain and Brussels now looks a long shot because of the key points of contention, and the many parties involved in important decision making. 

Key agreements have been made, but key divisions remain, which is a problem with a predictable path unless something different emerges in the days to come.

An agreement that means there has to be checks between Great Britain and Northern Ireland is something the DUP are strongly opposed to, and considered a big threat to the Good Friday peace agreement . The DUP will not accept that and if Mps don’t back the idea, it will be no more than a  memory . If checks between Great Britain and  Northern Ireland is a forbidden option, then no real deal has been achieved if it fails when examined. The Saturday sitting in which parliamentary Mps will assess the proposed deal already seem to be rejecting the deal, although let Saturday come and pass first.

Parliament has reportedly  cleared the way for pro-EU MPs to force a vote on a second referendum, by calling on the public to decide on the proposal presented by Boris Johnson. This could be a long merry go round which comes back to the public to decide if it is explained properly this time.
