A clause like that makes sense for both sides really, for the EU it helps future proof not just a Reform Government but any other that fancies doing a “oven ready deal” 2.0. For the UK it protects against the French getting arsey again over fish or cheese or whatever they are upset about today.

Well we won’t be anywhere near rejoining by the time of the next election, and the government don’t have a public mandate to do it either.

Sounds fair, if we are going to shot ourselves in the face again we should have to pay for the privilege

Sounds sensible, a clauase that requires the side that pulls out of the agreement to cover the costs of setting it all up so the side who wants to abide by it doesn’t lose out.

Seems a sensible precaution when dealing with an unreliable state. Fairly common practice in most deals to put in place measures to protect yourself.
The UK has already proven itself to be unreliable.

It makes sense that the person suddenly ending the deal would pay a penalty to do so.
But I was hoping the ‘Farage clause’ was about exiling him to St. Helena.

That would be sensible – because we know he would try to undo anything…
Farage was one of the people pushing Brexit, backed by Russian funding…. Rather like Trump..

If Farage and his folks form the next govt, relations with EU will be the least of our worries.

> The clause states that if either side pulls out, it must pay compensation that would include the costs of setting up “the infrastructure and equipment, initial recruitment and training, in order to set up the necessary border controls”.

Seems reasonable.
