The draft U.K.-EU agreement is one of several being drawn up ahead of a May 19 summit.
Britain and the European Union are set to sign a formal declaration committing to “free and open trade” in defiance of Donald Trump’s tariff agenda.
A leaked draft seen by POLITICO promises a “new strategic partnership” between London and Brussels based on “maintaining global economic stability and our mutual commitment to free and open trade.”
It comes as Keir Starmer’s U.K. government is locked in negotiations with the Trump administration to try to get a carve-out from the U.S. president’s new tariffs.
Lol that’s actually stupid funny.
Trump & Co. Managed to piss off UK and EU enough that they said “know what, let bygones be bygones, fuck the US”
Sooooooo, basically cancelling brexit without cancelling brexit, then?
One more agreement that wouldn’t have been necessary before Brexit.
But also kind of amazing that the US fucked up so bad that the EU is beginning to forgive the UK for the slap in the face of leaving.
I think it is more the UK which appears weak for coming crawling back to the EU.
We were dumb as shit for leaving. The end.
Free. Commerce. Eu. Uk.
i’m still working on it, but i think it’s going to form an acronym that says “f.u.c.k. t.r.u.m.p”
Free Unions’ Commerce Konvention: Toward Reciprocal Unity in Market Practices.
It’s nice to see the UK and EU getting so integrated. I’m not an expert, so I’m wondering if this could be the closest their partnership has been in recent years.
Maybe they should form some sort of union between the two parties.
Gotta wait for Nigel Farage and other gammons to not be quite so much of a threat before that decision can be addressed properly.
In the meantime, things like this are the probably the best way to go about it.
There already is one, UK is free to re-join.
That’s the joke bro
Woooosh
How’s the view on Brexit in the UK these days?
People have moved closer to the middle from both sides, but the average has moved to it being bad.

Still a lot of fascist idiots. Generally they are old, but that still a lot of people. Poll have changed more because Leavers are aging out, rather minds changing.
Eh… could be worse.
Oh it may well get worse. FPTP could give them power. Rarely does the power in party have a majority of the population support. Labour need to ditch FPTP for good of the country. But they won’t because they could win again, and it’s party before country.
they’re ready for brre-entry now
