Glass half empty again Quackers?

66.66% empty is two-thirds empty, not half empty.

And someone has pissed in that  :)

Lot of fuss over a few buckets of fish, particularly since the days of wild fishing probably will be over in a few decades and we will be kissing Tommy's arse for a piece of cod to go with the chips

You beat me to it. I was going to ask him how a "supposed" deal differs from an actual one, but I thought better of it  ;D

If you'd have listened to Boris you'd have heard all about it.

If I bothered to listen to Bojo-The-Clown I would be none the wiser.

Brexit deal: Firms 'need guidance' to keep goods moving
By Simon Read
Business reporter

Published10 minutes ago

The elephant not in the room and barely mentioned in the deal is services. There is no automatic access to a market worth £100bn to UK firms last year. A huge sigh of relief, yes - but any celebrations may be brief.

Not really. no mention of financial services/passported financial transactions.
Mmmm well those Bolsheviks didn't get all they wanted. You will find out in the next few days.
Just because I don't say anything, it doesn't mean I haven't noticed!

And you've read and digested it in its entirety, in what, an hour and a half, to be able to calculate this then?

I am following the reporting closely.

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

is there some significance in the 33.33 figure , or is it just plucked out of fresh air quackers?

So now there's supposedly a deal and everyone is relieved.

I suppose the best I can say is that it's probably 33.33% better than no deal and 66.66% worse than if we'd stayed in the EU.
