The EU have made the point that they can't start until the government has agreed what they want in a deal.

I just started the main one - we won't be paying career MEP Nigel Farage a salary.

It’s because the unaccountable, corrupt unelected bureaucarts need to consult and have guidelines signed off by the member states.

We did this one a while back where I asked people to take the opposite point. For me, the EU lacks agility due to its size and the restrictive rules on setting VAT were bad (see the ‘tampon tax’)
When I asked our leave friends to name something good about the EU, we got answers like ‘nothing’ and ‘we’re leaving’

So, talks will formally begin in March 2018 once Theresa May has got her cabinet to agree what they want from a deal. Is the idea that these talks will last after March 2019 when we leave the EU and end sometime in 2021?

Re: Brexit discussion
Meanwhile in the Eurolalaland utopia it's great to see there's no sign of any trend towards the right wing amongst all those welcoming Austrians we heard so much about...

It does not take 3 months to decide. So just shows this remark from the EU about the clock is ticking, was a steaming pile of BS from the EU, as usual.

Both the main parties are split, Dave. 18 months may seem a long time, but this whole business is subject to a very tight timetable.
The government does know what it wants, but getting the wording right so it doesn't upset one faction or another is a nightmare.
Given that TM doesn't have a majority in the House of Commons, I think she is doing a brilliant job. Many did not think we'd get this far.

Looks like it will have taken the tardy British cabinet a staggering 21 months to decide but I'm sure if they decide earlier then the accommodating EU will be happy to meet them!

You tell such great jokes, Andrew.

Whereas Corbyn in his weakness might well agree to that, Theresa will insist either:
1. That the ECJ ceases to apply to the UK after Brexit or

I'm afraid that you are confusing what you want with the reality of the EU's strong negotiating position.

During a trade visit to China, Philip Hammond was asked whether the UK would remain subject to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice and participate in the single market and customs union, despite not having membership or a role in rule making.
"In a word, yes," said the Chancellor.
