1/ A few clips from #GMB's feature with @IanDunt & @tnewtondunn (14/09/18). 'If I was going on a 2 day trip from Russia, Salisbury maybe not the first place that you go to...' @IanDunt
2/ 'I actually think the British govt mostly has got the tone right here, that's not something I say very easily.' @IanDunt#GMB
3/ 'What TM is good at are set piece security events...that's her forte.' @tnewtondunn
@SamuelMarcLowe 1/ Here's the interview in full, with @SamuelMarcLowe & Martin Howe QC. 'We already do the majority of our trade around the world on WTO terms...' Actually we do most of our trade through the EU (SM, EU-FTAs and MRAs with US/China/Aus). Am I correct @SamuelMarcLowe & @IanaDreyer?
@SamuelMarcLowe@IanaDreyer 2/ 'When I first read this report, that came out earlier today, I was amazed anyone serious whether a politician or QC, would want their name anywhere near it, because it's embarrassing.' @SamuelMarcLowe
@SamuelMarcLowe@IanaDreyer 3/ Yup it's all really simple...it's all about tariffs. Note not a word about Non Tariff Barriers from Martin Howe. Bet @CoppetainPU & @hhesterm would have something to say about this clip?
1/ A few clips from yesterday's DExEU SC with Philip Rycroft, Head of UK Gov Group & Permanent Sec, DExEU. @hilarybennmp : 'Is the govt making provisions for portaloos on the M20 in the event of long queues?'*After March 2019*
2/ Very moot question from @hilarybennmp about the govt's use of non disclosure agreements in preparation for Brexit.
3/ 'Is the witness able to tell us when he thinks a decision has to be made about a no-deal agreement?' Peter Bone. What follows is a master class of obfuscation & evasion.
1/ A few clips from DExEU SC (11/07/18). 'To try to have similar outcomes but without all of those standards & processes & institutions & co-operation networks, you are asking an enormous amount from the member states.' Michael Dougan on MRA/Equivalence re any future UK-EU TA.
2/ '...where you see more of the discussion on potential relocation of certain
jobs and offshoring on to the EU market from some of the American,
Japanese and Swiss banks. *who are based here b\c of the UK's access to the SM*' @AllieRenison
3/ This is a lovely explainer on how trade disputes between the UK and the EU are currently dealt with. @livuni_EULaw (Michael Dougan).
1/ A few clips from this week's sitting of DExEU - am session - focusing on the impact Brexit will have on the UK's service sector. @hilarybennmp: 'What will be the consequences of a no-deal *outcome* for your members?' Adam Minns (Executive Director, CBA) shares some thoughts.
2/ Same question to @huwevans71 (Director General, Association of British Insurers). 'In many countries - in the EU - if you're not authorised to transact business there, it is illegal to pay a claim.'
3/ @stephencrabb4 asks how difficult it will be *for the UK govt* to get the EU to accept enchanced equivalence. 'I think we can all see that it's going to be an uphill task to persuade the EU27...' @City_McGuinness@huwevans71
