      @Hiltok 5 лет назад +9

      You were buggered the moment the feckless Cameron instituted a referendum on a major constitutional matter on the basis that 50%+1 was good enough to upend the status quo. It was a 52-48 result that showed a divided nation that remains divided. Ireland's vote for same-sex marriage was 62-38, as was Australia's plebiscite. Those results are the sort that can be readily implemented as representing a clear majority. 52-48 for a big change? That's tough.
      Just wait until Brexit is a done no-deal. That 55-45 Scottish thing will reverse and the solution to best protect the interests (economic and human rights) of the various groups in NI from British interference or neglect will be for NI to go into the EU, too. I believe Brexit will be the undoing of the UK.

      @@thebrsrkr6428 First, if the UK does leave, it needs to leave with a solid understanding of the facts so that it can prepare. Convincing people that the UK can carry on, as is, because you stopped reading a treaty once you got to the part you liked, does not prepare people for the consequences of this decision.
      Secondly, the UK doesn't have to leave. A second referendum where popular vote overturns the previous referendum is justified and in line with democratic principles. Going back on leaving the EU would really only hurt the Tory party, which isn't a problem to me.

      So, here’s what tariff free means for the UK: Every country that can grow food cheaper than the UK floods your market with their food. Your farmers can’t compete. They go out of business. Then the foreign companies can raise prices after the competition is gone. The UK gets screwed.

      Smuggling is a great way to avoid the EU’s tariffs destroying Britain, and no one can do anything about it if it is all done over the Irish border. It will slow trade down, but that is far cheaper than paying the tariff or the price of membership.

    There is another tricky bit with this whole WTO shenanigans. As you said, such an agreement between the UK and the EU (which is an agreement also the 27 remaining EU member states would have to agree to) would need confirmation by all the other WTO members - as you stated 164. The tricky part here is: The EU itself is indeed a WTO member, but each EU member state is still one of the 164 members of the WTO. Not sure that came through in your video(s).

    Boris' main issue is, that he apparently believes the empire still exists. Reality is, that the Empire is olde history and that the former subjects all have thier very own interest way beyond the old master... with many of them likely having somewhat of a grudge and now having their own might to dictate terms in their favour.
    And he apparently also believes that the "saying "No" and sitting out" tactic still works... PM May tried it and it failed spectacularly, because Art. 50 has the clock running against the leaving party.
    He also forgot about why many international corporations put up tents in the UK: besides being corporation friendly, because the UK was EU member and as such member of the Single Market and Customs Union. With the Membership gone, the business friendliness will be found in other countries, such as the Netherlands and Ireland.

    Hmmm... For once Google translate is useful... That's the great thing about legal language... It can only be understood one way. Even if that one way has multiple interpretations. In that case the language was deliberately chosen that way ;-)
    In any case...
    "The provisions of this agreement shall not be construed to prevent advantages accorded by any contracting party to adjacent countries in order to facilitate frontier traffic." translates in Dutch to "De bepalingen van deze overeenkomst mogen niet worden geïnterpreteerd als zijnde een beletsel voor het voorkomen van voordelen die door een verdragsluitende partij aan aangrenzende landen worden toegekend om het grensverkeer te vergemakkelijken."
    In non-legalese English that means: The content of the agreement cannot prevent existing advantages that one party gave to the other party in order to make border traffic easier.
    Or: Since the UK is part of a customs union which avoids tariffs, the UK may not reinstate tariffs after Brexit while using the GATT agreement as this would prevent the tariff free frontier traffic between the EU and the UK (which means between NI and Eire)...
    So GATT article 3 prevents the UK from leaving the customs union as long as GATT is used unless they can prevent a hard border between the EU and the UK...
    Essentially GATT = backstop, but with an additional 164 potential vetos...

    Paragraph 3 means that Article XXIV cannot be used by the parties to the upcoming agreement (in our case the EU and UK supposedly) as a basis to demand any limit in trade between the individual parties and bordering countries with which they (the contracting parties) already have advantageous and legal trading relationships.
    In short, the interim new trade agreement can't kill off existing ones.
    This is a throwback to the issues that emerged prior to WW2 and for our purposes means that the UK can probably not have any influence over the trading conditions between NI and the EU by merits of Article XXIV, the latter of which is of course entirely non-applicable to begin with.
