Not just commitment to same standards on goods (means efficiency, waste, chemicals, ewaste, etc standards all stay), but also firm commitment to high standards on environment and climate policy. #Chequers
EU is still never going to buy splitting goods and services, but still, what a huge step forward towards some form of pragmatism after so many wasted months.
Although, it could, of course, all fall apart at any time and the Hard Brexiters are not simply going to give up their pursuit of full blown deregulation.

Corbyn links the financial crash of 2008 and the environmental crisis, saying it has undermined efforts to tackle planetary risks.
Gets applause for saying there is no greater threat than climate change.
Says Kyoto and Paris Agreement is about 'solidarity'. 'We all have an interest in reducing emissions and giving us all cleaner air,' he says.

This story does make me wonder if we'll ever have a story that turns the microscope on the school/uni culture of the UK elite...
There was a half hearted look at the Bullingdon Club, but there's never been any really serious assessment of how our education system and culture informs so much of what follows.
It may be very different to frat culture, but as @drvox says there are very familiar types who benefit massively from a system that rewards confidence and 'charm' over pretty much everything else.

ICYM Top read from @makower on the continuing mystery of the media's decision to basically ignore the biggest economic, technical, and environmental story in, well, human history, really. businessgreen.com/bg/opinion/306…
That's not even hyperbole. What stories are bigger? There's the origin story, obviously. The first tribes, then the first states. Exploration. Industrial revolution...
But you can surely make the case nothing is bigger than the search for an environmentally sustainable civilisation in the face of the greatest technological explosion in the known universe, while in the full knowledge planetary limits are being breached and time is running out.

Just on a point of order that I am sure has been written eleventy trillion times already, the Norway option is entirely compatible with the referendum result and always has been.
The question was should the UK remain a member of the EU or leave the EU? Norway is outside the EU, ergo it honours the referendum result. That is a simple fact. To say it would make a mockery of the referendum result is a political judgement, not a statement of fact.
It may be sub optimal, it may be politically difficult, but it is an option and it is an option that some of the architects of Leave used to endorse.
