@@edsr164 The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland share a border on the island of Ireland. Ireland was once part of the UK for about 120 years and a colony for even longer before that but separated to form an independent state but not all of Ireland left the UK. Part of it, Northern Ireland, stayed in the UK. This caused a lot of problems with everyone who had an opinion of what should have happened and it led to decades of violence. Eventually a treaty, called The Good Friday Agreement, was signed which opened the border on Ireland and removed all border checkpoints to allow people living there to move freely and gave the right of people from Northern Ireland to apply for and receive citizenship in the Republic of Ireland. This was a very long peace process involving the UK, the Rep. of Ireland, the US and the EU and they got all parties involved in murdering each other for the last fifty years to agree to stop the violence. Restoring the border breaks this treaty and has already led to violent attacks and a new wave of terrorist activities. The border has to be put in place if the UK leave as it would then be considered a border with a non EU country and the EU has to maintain it's borders in exactly the same way with all of it's neighbours that it has no treaty with just like every other country does. This is a very short answer but the full one would take too long to explain.
I have a question: why don’t they just have a reffarendum in Northern Ireland (only) to decide what they want? After all if we don’t want violence ask them.
Which one of your videos was demonetised, "Boris Johnson is the New Prime Minister - TLDR News": as your video suggest, or the one posted a couple of days ago, as you mentioned: "Johnson's First Speech to Parliament Explained - TLDR News" ? I rewatched them both, I really can't understand why TH-cam would demonetise any of your videos...
Just a heads up. Randomly placed ads in the middle of a video is pretty disruptive. Especially for a news show trying to condense tricky subjects. Maybe consider turning them off. Especially on videos where you're flashing your Patreon because you don't get enough ads. It makes that whole thing look like greed, imo.
If someone's speeches or actions are illogical or stupid, an unbiased media MUST call them out on it. That's a mistake "fans" make when defending their idols: calling every single criticism "biased", and a mistake some journalist make when they try to look unbiased and find as many qualities as defaults in everything. I'd argue it's quite the opposite: if you know something is bullsh*t and don't say so, you are presenting biased information. All in all, I think you are making quite a good job.
Your second paragraph is it in a nutshell. The majority of the brexit defense is utterly illogical, and it's defense by brexiteers in the face of actual evidence contradicting their arguments is a bias far stronger than anything put out by the "biased mainstream media" as they call it
@@leisti You are correct, thank you for reminding me. The EU is controlled by Judeo-fascist oligarchs who hide behind a veil of liberal socialism. This allows them to oppress the pro-EU sheep without them realizing how they are being used. Over time, if gone unchecked, Brussels will transform Europe into the next Napoleonic Reich. A bit like China really.
@@jacobnighthorse7893 Huh, all this time and that's the best you can come up with? I guess when you back stupid ideas, you can't really rely on intelligent arguments.
even better: johnson during the 2 years prior: if i get elected, we will renegotiate and get a better deal eu: sorry a deal is a deal is a deal, we both are ferengi you know? now: im prime minister and now we will renegotiate a better deal and we will get it eu: ........am i talking to a wall? no means no, get your shit together
May: Oh please give me another extension then so it looks like we are trying to leave the EU but have no intention of doing so. Johnson : Fine, we'll leave without a deal then. (Although as Ian Duncan smith explained, there is really no such thing as No deal. We are already doing lots of mini deals with the EU in preparation for No deal. to ensure supply of medicines and air travel etc)
Germany has nothing to win and everything to lose in a No Deal exit. In the short run they are teetering at the edge of recession and in the long run risk losing more faithful EU slave colonies if everyone sees Brexit is successful. Britain, on the other hand has plenty to win in the long run including better trade deals with the US. As a conclusion I don't see how the new commissioner von der Leyen could just let Britain slip from EU's hands and ruin her country without negotiations...
I lost count on how many times the UK has threatened the EU by pointing a gun at their own chest. Can't you guys leave already, it's getting tiresome and petty at this point.
@adam smith typical ignorant british logic. When you can't bully someone, you call them a bully. You voted out, you were offered a deal, take it or leave it. It's as simple as that. The EU hasn't threatened anybody. It's the UK that shows arrogance and entitlement and when they can't have it their way, they blame the EU. Get real
@adam smith They are not threats. They are just pointing out the home truths of cancelling the 60,000 plus treaties, agreements and deals the UK had with the EU and via thevEU with the rest of the World. We have already fallen from top to bottom of the G7 and seen the pound tank because of the decision to leave and we are still in the EU. Even Farage and Mogg have admitted the economy will suffer after we leave, how is it you know better?
"no country that values its independence and indeed its self respect could agree to a treaty that signed away our economy independence and self governance" - Hilarious how Tories will say shit like this but tell Scotland to shut up about independence.

Camoron talked to his friends and said if I did a referendum to leave the EU would you want to leave, as they all get hand outs of course they said no, so he took that as a given that the poor people every government ignores would feel the same, the plebs would do what they were told, I think the leave vote is more a dig at our own government than it is at the EU
@@steveaustin4118 I actually wish that were the case but I did not see one person saying that. All I saw was fear mongering and divisive politics to create an us-and-them society
@@jpblack2148 I'd agree the remain made no effort to make a case for staying in the EU, only scare tactics, it wasn't untill after the result that we saw on TV some things the EU funds or has paid for in full, telling the poor neglected that the rich may be worse off as well as them isn't a good ploy. The leave knew exactly what to push they knew there target audience, it's not that the leave voters were racist but when you see factories advertising a job and you must speak polish in an English factory, or you are waiting on the council list for housing for 2 years and 2 polish families get a house a month after arriving, as it later turned out government had told councils to prioritize housing polish families so nothing to do with the EU but tell that to poor people struggling to pay rent to private landlords
@@steveaustin4118 Things "the EU paid for"? You mean things the EU paid for WITH MONEY WE GAVE THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE... There is no such thing as "EU money". It was our money. The UK is the EUs second biggest net contributor. We gave them far more money than we got back in subsidies, grants etc.
@@steveaustin4118 - "I'd agree the remain made no effort to make a case for staying in the EU, only scare tactics" I mean, what can you reasonably expect from a debate between "take negative action" and "don't"? The remain position was "don't do that", so literally argument has to be about why doing that is bad. You can call that "fear tactics" only in the same way you could call "you'll lose your leg" a fear tactic against someone threatening to shoot themselves in the leg. Leave had another benefit against the remain campaign in that they had literally no actionable items in their proposal. "Leave the EU" is so open ended that anyone could assign whatever meaning they personally wanted onto it and tell themselves that's what they were voting for. Remain was, again, a non-action and therefore could only argue the downsides of leaving, but with no actual plan there are no points to debate. Plus, whenever leave says something like, "well X popular brexit talking point is bad because A, B, and C" the rebuttal can just be "yeah, well I don't support X, Y is what brexit is going to be" ad-nausium. "telling the poor neglected that the rich may be worse off as well as them isn't a good ploy." Wait, who said that? The rich are going to lose little on a personal level, and have a hell of a lot to gain from a localized UK market crash. Think it's hard to buy real estate now? Just wait until the markets crash and prices plummet, but no one can get a loan and loses their job and has to sell at shit rates, which then get bought up by - wait for it - rich wealthy landowners who moved their assets out of the UK before the crash. Congrats, you've now moved even more capital into the hands of the already filthy rich.
I noticed you were hesitant to be critical of Johnson because it angered some people in your previous episode. I think giving into criticisms like that would cause you to become biased but the other way around, so I hope you maintain a commitment to truth and not to mollycoddling those unwilling to listen to the truth.
@Astuteous Maximus But that's like saying which kind of selfish, incompetent elitist jackwaddle you want in charge. You really don't want any of them, and any time spent comparing them is better spent demanding actually good leaders.
@Astuteous Maximus I mean, the US now actually has some former restaurant workers in the running for president. In the right situation, it's not actually that improbable. Especially when the usual candidates don't have anything worthwhile to offer.
@Astuteous Maximus No, actually. You just need to get a ton of public support (assuming you live in a functional democracy). Having a lot of contacts among the rich and powerful is very helpful for getting famous and spreading your messages, but it's not the only way. I can't give you any PM's who come from a lower-class background, because I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge about every democracy's political history.
@@Healermain15 You make it sound like it's a bad thing that she actually a normal working class person, with the working class' interests? AOC has an exceptional work ethic and list of achievements , whereas most politicians rely on Nepotism and prior wealth. Mentioning no names.
I don't see why people hating one of your videos due to their personal bias should affect how you make future ones. Your videos are as objective as they can get, and it is inevitable to offend some viewers. Keep up the great work
They are not as objective as they can be, there’s always tons of loaded words. The least he could do, this isn’t the EU being difficult, not pay the EU it’s money. That’s 3 that I can remember from this one video.
@@mrmagoo-i2l 1. It's the literal least he could do. If he doesn't, then there's a major loss of trust on the eu's side and Britain will exit with no deal and probably a human right violation. 2. It's actual logic. Like if you don't want free movement between countries you need a hard border. It's actually not a loaded phrase to say this. 3. 6:45 "not pay the EU this money" It seems the loaded thing here is yourself.
I think the EU has done an excellent job managing BREXIT. They have stayed on message and unified. They graciously accepted the UK's request to leave the EU and showed sadness. The EU is under no obligation to give the UK any favorable terms now or in the future. It comes back to what bargaining chips does the UK have at this time? Two-years on the UK side has made demands that have been rejected while the EU have actually prepared for a post BREXIT trading arrangement (while the UK has simply talked). In the two years since the vote, has the UK prepared their industries to be more resilient?
@@Justybow It absolutely is. However, if EU wanted it could have pushed for worse deal for UK, than the previous one which was offered. If not for else, then for out of spite. I wouldn't say EU has been "fair" towards UK, as that word carries little meaning. EU has been reasonable, and not ledged their full weight against UK
@@Justybow It is, and that's not what he means, typical brexitard, what he means is that EU follow brexit by the book and did nothing to try and punish UK while the Uk keep insulting and having crazy demands on each corner, hell they even throw a bone or two for UK, so ya, leave already for god sake, you know where the door is
What amazes me about the whole situation is how entitled and spoiled the UK has been throughout the process, acting as if they will graciously stay if given everything they want, this is to misunderstand the situation, article 50, which the UK not the Eu triggered states that two years after it is invoked the UK will leave the Eu, any deal between the two is secondary.
The intent of the Customs Union is to provide benefit to members under a framework. If a member leaves, then so must the benefits to justify the union's advantages.
Because the companies paying youtube money for their adds are the same companies who own mainstream media.

Personally I blame Finland. Don´t know why, but it is evident from here till 31st of October it will be Everyone elses fault except for the representatives of England. I am going to blame Disraeli next week, and of course I am keeping Henry Viii as my Backstop.
@@oisnowy5368 Stop using the word British. It has Nothing to do with the other three, just Stupid England. Johnson Davis Mogg and the rest ALL voted for the Backstop, so that also makes them "Thingies". Typical English selective memory.
Chrissy The Conqueror Stuff the Algorithm. I watched one Russel Howard video, just one, six months ago and now they are sharting up my recommended along with Fox News, Colbert and Jimmy Dore. None of which I’ve ever watched.
If my memory serves me, the EU proposed a temporary customs union with NI alone and then have the alternative arrangements in the sea. But the DUP didn’t like this at all. Imagine laws in NI would diverge from those in the UK, impossible!
You´re absolutely right. The EU was focused on damage control. All the Brexit mess is 100% of UK origin (by messing the withdrawal agreement with domestic agenda).
I live in Australia so I have a view of an outsider and I know it so emotional for all those involved in the UK, but believe me we live under WTO rules and there is nothing “magical” about them. If you resent the EU attempting to subvert your laws, wait until you see what the US will want as part of a trade deal!!!! If you dont believe me look at what they wanted in the Trans Pacific Partnership to which Australia was a part. The ability to subvert laws such as anti smoking laws and subsidised medicine etc in a secret tribunal hearing.which would totally subvert Australian domestic law and our version of the NHS which is treasured as much in Australia as your NHS. Don’t wish too hard you might get what you want!!
They tried this with the EU too. Directly it did not came with TTIP, since the people of some EU countries demonstrated enough in the last minute (well, when the politicians came out of their secret meetings to the public with the plan). But such things only work if you have an economy which can compete with the US one I would imagine.
The monied confraternity of the UK are working in tandem with their brothers in the USA to make extinct forever structures like the British National Health Service. American citizens have been successfully deprived of the right to public Health funded by their taxes, but the existence of it in Britain is a thorn in the side of medico-pharma monopoly of the USA. The Brexiteer runt within the Tory party, now in the ascendant, is the British arm of Big Pharma, Commercialised Healthcare etc.
Don't stop criticising politicians like Johnson or whomever because some people "don't like it". Scrutiny is one of the most important things that needs to be done by any political commentator, and you're always unbiased in your views. Don't stop doing that because it upsets people who take any fair criticism as an opportunity to spark outrage, the news needs to be objective, and care more about facts than feelings (sorry for quoting Ben Shapiro everybody).
I agree on the not stopping criticising thing, but beware that everybody is naturally biased. The content here is excellent but you should always get your news from multiple sources to get a wider view and enable you to come up with more informed opinions yourself.
You do realise that leave won the referendum, I criticise mps every day since because they are pissing on democracy in a democracy if we don't leave that is the biggest criminal act of any democratic country in my lifetime, they should be ashamed of themselves for dragging our country down into this godforsaken mess, next election will see the 67%of constituency mps who have screwed over the electorate out on their arse, if boris doesn't get us the fuck out of the EU nigel farage and boris will take us out with a coalition govt simple as that
@@petertaylor3446 ah yes, 52% of two thirds of the electorate. So basically, a mandate from 33% of the voting age population, voted in an advisory referendum. Yea, that's clearly very democratic isn't it mate. Also, plenty of people didn't actually know what they were voting for (which is why we have representatives to decide our foreign policy) and you implying they aren't allowed to change their mind is anti democratic in itself.
@@joehiggitt7344 haha the old stupid people didn't know what remain or leave means chestnut, 67%of constituencies voted to leave on a binary agenda with a government propaganda leaflet explaining exactly what leave meant accept the fact that leave won and go and moan about the environment or something
@@petertaylor3446 You saying it's an over used argument doesn't detract from the point. It doesn't matter what 67% of constituencies said, legally non binding vote, oh and at least the remain camp can decided what we want unlike the divided Brexiteers, soft brexit? Hard brexit? No deal? None of you have a clue, but I'm not going to change your mind and you're certainly not going to change mine so go do something productive like educating yourself.
- Boris Johnson: I'm on a bus and I'm going to drive it off this cliff if my demands aren't met. I want my debts scrapped! - EU: Please, let go some of the hostages and we can talk! - Boris Johnson: There are no hostages here. I'm on my own and it's my bus. - EU: You haven't thought this through, did you?
I predicted in 2016 that the backstop issue would be completely intractable. Either we leave with no deal, or we don't leave at all. I prefer the latter.
@@idratherbewithmycatrightnow That's not remotely true. Iceland has repeatedly stated they would welcome the UK in EFTA. Switzerland have said they would be "open" to the UK joining EFTA - In fact they would benefit the most from it. Norway is the stumbling block, as many mixed messages have come from their MPs about whether or not they would support it. Norway supporting UK membership would come with caveats.
@@idratherbewithmycatrightnow In fact, the President of the EFTA court, Carl Baudenbacher visited London to promote the UK joining EFTA, to adopt the Norway model to resolve the BREXIT crisis.
Also a solution, the UK isn't willing to accept. They are so full of possible directions they are god damn sure they DON'T want to take - they haven't stopped to think what it is they DO want, yet. Here's hoping for October ... :D
This whole situation is only a problem because brexiteers are also staunch unionists. If they were happy to let Northern Island and probably Scotland go independent then this could all have been solved years ago. The fact that they went into brexit seemingly not realizing that these two unchangeable tenets of their ideology were mutually exclusive is kinda baffling, as it was blindingly obvious to everyone else who looked at the idea for even five minutes.
Comparing the countries of a tiny island to a huge swathe of unified nations, not even attached to said island, seems rather short-sighted. The only comparison I’ve seen being drawn is : “you want to leave, so you should let other people leave too!” This is an incredibly complex, dangerous and unprecedented situation, and it should be treated as such. There are no good answers, and very few people on the *planet* capable of understanding the depths and ramifications of this process. We’re laymen, let’s not pretend we have a deep and extensive understanding of this situation.
H Bailey , that’s exactly what happened in the EU, maybe not fully complete yet but years ahead of the British. Just look at preps made in Calais or Rotterdam and then compare that to the deafening silence in Dover and other UK ports. How could the EU take any threat from UK seriously? All they need is to ask about latest ferry arrangements 😊
The report published earlier this year shows there is no way we are ready for any type of Brexit, let alone a no deal. Insufficient warehousing to cope with no Just In Time ordering, insufficient refrigerated transporters and warehousing, 8000 more Custom clerks required, who each take a years training etc In the event of a Hard Brexit, the scenario is much worse.
Conservative party's symbol: Tree Bojo's hairdo: Bird nest on that tree Javid's head: Egg in the nest Gove: A junkie doing lines under the tree Rees-Mogg: Dinosaur fossil underground October: A gigantic tornado in the distance And everything is in a big wheat field.
Why wouldn't it be? We have two sides. One is saying they will not accept X only Y. The other saying they won't accept Y only X. Why do you take ones side as entitled and justified to refuse to renegotiate and accept their public statements as written in stone by god himself yet treat the other side as deluded and chasing a fantasy? It is just as valid to say the UK Parliament has rejected the deal (three times, with the PM doing everything to force it through!) and so the EU is the one chasing a fantasy that isn't even an option.
It isn't, but Boris and his idiot brexit fan club think it is because for some reason they assume the UK is bigger than the rest of the EU and can play hardball to force them into renegotiating and capitulating on everything.
@@KingBobXVI KingBob, Boris isn't assuming the EU will capitulate. The word is they don't think they will and are now going full steam preparing for a no deal Brexit. His public comments are for the rest of Parliament and to show that he is still trying for a deal even though privately he thinks it won't happen. So the UK leaves with no deal, gets to keep most of that £39 billion, and can start to agree trade deals with countries around the world. The EUs share of world trade is shrinking. Areas like Brazil, India and China are where the real growth will be in the next few decades.
Whatever about renegotiations, two things aren't up for discussion. The divorce payment and, absolutely 100% certainly not ever, the backstop. Other than that there can be negotiations. But the answer will be no.
I hope and I expect the EU will stand their ground as if they let the UK leave with a sweet deal, all the benefits without the costs, more countries will follow. That will weaken the position of what is now one of the three powerhouses in the worldwide economy. So if the UK wants out, it’s either on the EU terms or No Deal as the latter will hurt the EU less. The UK gambled and (probably) lost.
Uk gamble on the German car industry, sadly for them Germans already said that the union is more important than the financial hit, right now they are betting on Ireland and EU not letting Ireland get too much damage, sadly for them i don't think that will work as EU is working on minimize the damage Ireland take and UK will take it in the ass again
@@jjg19631 I said this from day one brexit, without a doubt as EU is at the moment is far for being perfect, BUT in this world where UK/China/Russia exist we need EU, we need to be together and stay strong, if EU is not perfect we work TOGETHER AND FIX IT , not do the shit UK did, aka been the poor man of Europe, take full advantage of everything EU had, build themselves back and now they are leaving with crazy demands, insults, and hypocrisy, they know where the door is, why are they still in EU when Eu already said they are doing our way or no way
Auryon And the 1% profit from it all. Like in the US the missed screw themselves. And I don’t think the UK population really wanted to leave. They wanted to give the EU the middlefibger and stay in. But then leave got a slight majority, so small that it is acceptable to put it to the people a second time as now they know the consequences.
Hey TLDR, You should be making news based on facts and reality, not what people want to hear. If people don't like you criticising Johnson, then that's frankly their problem, as long as your arguments hold water and stand up to scrutiny. If Johnson's policies are bonkers, then it's your job as a media outlet to point that out - regardless of whether your viewers like it or not. It journalistic integrity, which sometimes involves speaking uncomfortable truths.
You don't want to be too critical of Johnson because people hated it?!!! What about telling it as it is instead of accommodating to what people like or don't like?
I agree with Johnson on one point - it is time to either be in our be out, several years of nothing is too destructive. My view is remain is best, leave at all costs is next best and continuing to fart arse around is worst.
@A Id Indeed 'remain' is the best option. However think of the analogy of a tooth being taken out. Going to the Dentist every day so he can wobble it a bit crack it a bit and after two years it is still there and hurting. OR Go to the dentist and have the tooth taken out, some blood, some pain, and then some healing and a week later stops hurting and a few months later it is completely healed. Sure - brexit no deal will hurt, but it will also mean that the UK can start healing.
@@Craznar Not to be rude but a "tooth being pulled out" in this case will affect millions of lives for several years, perhaps decades, to come. The stakes aren't the same, the economy isn't a band-aid.
There should be an agency that monitors speeches and public announcements from MPs and PMs. If they are caught lying or judged to be intentionally spreading misinformation then they should be called out on it, fined and forced to publicly correct themselves. But then we just sent him to court for lying and bullshitting and still got away with it. The UK has made it clear it doesn't give a shit about holding politicians accountable for malpractice.
@@Siathuan nobody is saying it's going to be easy, but it's just not going to be as bad as remoaners are saying, all the doom sayers ended up with egg on their faces after the referendum (which leave won BTW) at least we will have our say where the money gets spent who we deal with what tariffs and business taxes we set etc, a government who will be accountable to the electorate etc etc erc

Please don’t change stance for/against Brexit or Johnson due to what viewers want to hear. Nor have a solid stance either way. Please please continue to tell the news how it is and inform the people as oppose to reaffirm their own believes over new perspectives.
Only a short time ago Boris was telling us about the EU legislation that was causing problems for people selling kippers. Turns out it was UK regulations, if he cannot get that right we haven't a hope in hell.
If only that was the first time he had lied about EU regulations that didn't exist. It is almost like he does it on purpose, knowing there are plenty if gullible idiots who believe everything he says without bothering to check. I mean it's not like he hasn't got a history of lying and cheating repeatedly...
‘No Deal’ is NOT something that Johnson needs to “get done”, it is what happens by default, if the UK and the EU don’t reach a deal by 31st October 2019.
no deal requires proper regulations changes UK will be legaly tied to entety that UK is not part of creating chaos, and it needs to be prepared way before it. Thing is you need will to do this.
There is no majority in either Ireland or Northern Ireland for reunification. It would be very unpopular, would ride roughshod over people's democratic self-determination, and would reignite The Troubles just as certainly as a hard border.
"Only time will tell which way this falls." We all know which way it's going to fall. The difference is when it does fall some of us will blame the culprits, the others will blame the Polish, French etc...
Yes there is. Its very simple, NI stays in the single market and the UK - the origional ni only backstop offer. The DUP does not speak for the majority in the north (less than 36%, maybe even lower now,). The majority of the north would vote for this if given the chance - nearly 2/3 voted to stay in the eu. Why are they not given the chance - the dup are propping the tories effectively breaking the terms of the GFA.
Whatever overhaul the backstop and May´s deal will experience in new negotiations, it will still necessary to navigate the new deal through 28 governments and many parlaments. Most european countires would have to organize a parlamentary majority, just like the UK. But all that efford contains the risk, that the Commons will reject it. How often european and british politicans can afford to push for a compromise, explain it to their opposition and sceptical citizens, who very often think that the Britts should be kicked out the EU w/o further ado? Any alteration of May´s deal, any accomodation of Johnson, who ridiculed and insulted europaen institution a million times, would boost the anti-EU-forces, especially on the right side of the political spectrum. These guys are complaining about a weak and treacherous EU anyways, predicting the downfall of Brussels in favor of "old elites" and to the detriment of "the people". Sounds familiar, right? So the EU can simply not afford to come Boris´ way. On many levels it´s too risky. For my home country Germany I can tell you, that any movement towards Britain would be recognized as defeat, would strengthen anti-EU resentment and undermine the authority of our national government.
Michael “people in this country have had enough of experts” Gove is now in charge of Brexit... I wonder who he will look for to get advice and valuable inputs to the problems ahead? Echo chamber anyone won won won....
If people think 39 billion pounds is a lot ,Britain’s NHS in the next year will cost 138 billion pounds alone!!! so Europe won’t be that bothered about his meaningless threat of withholding that small amount
If the UK leave without a deal, UK is outside the EU, and then we need a hard border with custom control. UK shall NEVER become a hub for products from fx the USA to travel through the UK into the EU, no thanks
I wonder what people of UK think of when they see the graphic of the baseball and glove that represents 'the backstop'. Is the word 'backstop' an Americanism? is it not common in British English?
Any idea how much we Europeans are fed up with Brexit, the UKs behavior, your polititians, etc. I have English relatives, i had been very anglophile. i still have a lot friends within the U.K. But...……. please, bugger off U.K. or better just England and Wales. ;-)
Hartmut Writh ... Thanks 👍 Whether we’re remainers or leavers, most of us have a great deal of respect for the EU. We’re as sick and tired of Brexit, and our politicians, as you are. We’re also quite sick with the bullying, derisive tactics employed by the European Parliament, and their attempts to turn European nations and citizens against us; seems it’s working, especially on the sheeple. Good luck 👍
The EU are laughing at Boris, both at the way he doesn’t understand how withdrawal from the EU works, but they also laugh at the dead fox he has on his head xD it looks like he’s getting fashion advice from Trump xD
@@evilmoif How come I never hear you muppets talk about how the British government is propped up by a party you can only vote for in Northern Ireland? You always go on and on and on about how undemocratic it is that an Italian, or a Frenchman, or God forbid a German can have some influence over laws that must be implemented in the UK, but isn't the DUP propping up the Conservatives in Westminster exactly the same thing? Or what about the enormous amount of wasted votes that Britain's FPTP system produces? I mean, at this point, can we please just call that a feature and not a bug? Or what about the unelected civil servants working in Whitehall? Surely they are comparable to the EU Commissioners, in that they don't set policy, they merely carry out the will of elected officials. Is it because all of these things are happening in your own backyard that you're not calling attention to them? I guess what I'm asking is this: Why the double standard?
And the 39 billion must be quite a bit less now than in 2017 when the number was first mooted, assuming the uk has continued to make payments over the 2.5 yrs since then.
So you solve England's problem by forcing an unwanted and unacceptable decision on two other parties who don't currently have a problem ... and then you wonder why English exceptionalism is a thing.
it's not theirs to give back. only the people of NI can decide if they want to split from the Union and polls do not indicate that there's a majority for that.
@@tessjuel difficult to say but personally I can't really see ROI not agreeing if a favourable border poll came out. both because it's so enshrined historically and with brexit it would solve a major headache. If you think about German reunification in 1990 that was hardly welcomed by all, but the idea that west Germany had just said no is pretty inconceivable. Financially i'm sure the EU would sweeten the deal with extra funds

Technically, is illegal in the UK to show footage of the parliament as comedy material. Which in the context of brexit, it means that is illegal to show any footage of the british parliament at all and the flagging algorithm is working as intended.
when big networks upload clips with Parliament content they don't mark the Parliament content as being in public domain, so if you use the same clip, from the same source, your video will be marked as infringing their content it is standard abuse of the YT copywrong algorithms
I want to give Boris a chance but honestly I wouldn’t hire him for any job on earth. He seems like the type to mess up and then blame someone else. Thanks for the video man!
jonnyblucky ... I don’t particularly like Johnson, but you don’t have the kind of career he’s had without being a very clever individual. His success will, imo, rely on the quality of the staff he puts together.
Johnson thinks the EU needs urgently that 39 bln. cooking them hot to have best condition for UK only. I wouldn't subscribe that because EU has to make sure that condition being a member of EU is better than not to be a member of EU. This is fundamental regardless about what money they talking about. Also a no deal does not remove that 39 bln. which is not a gift from UK to EU but a bill from several commitments UK made. The risk of a bad performed brexit is still higher on UK's side than to the EU where the risk is additional devided among several states.
Plus, is not longer 39 billions. The contributions to the EU budget for the seven months since "brexit day" needs to be deducted from that number, meaning the hole in the budget becomes smaller (8.7 billions for the 8 months to the end of the fiscal year instead of 16.3 billions for 15 months from the end of march). And as TL;DR said, there are things included in the exit bill the UK has to pay no matter what.
Germany owes trillions to the UK because of WW1 and WW2... so it's completely fair if UK doesn't give the average taxpayers money to fascists. Hitler lost, deal with it.
If the EU are insistent on the fact that the deal on the table, which parliament have stated clearly three times they won't pass, is all they're offering then to me it seems to be them who don't want a deal, in which case, the only way we can leave is without a deal. Putting our main focus there is therefore quite sensible. Should they choose that they're willing to renegotiate we can, but they have completely unrealistic expectations if they think parliament would ever accept the deal on the table unchanged.
The EU cant offer a better deal without risking its existence. On top of that there is no indication that the new negotiations will be any different than the previous ones. So there is little point in having negotiations.
@@JohnDoe-kv3cm I have a feeling that if they made just enough changes to the backstop to make the agreement the EU signed a few months ago legally binding it would likely be enough to get the current deal through parliament, especially if that was seen as the only way to avoid no deal. The EU have already agreed to those things, so it doesn't cost them anything, and it'd be enough for Cox to change his advice, which affected a lot of MPs vote last time.
@@JohnDoe-kv3cm Ah, My wording of that wasn't the best, but what I mean is what people were expecting the documents on March 11th 2019 (I think that was the date anyway) to contain - the ones that the Attorney General, Geoffrey Cox, made a statement to the house regarding. The agreements basically don't include the case where "despite the parties properly fulfilling the duties of good faith and best endeavours they cannot reach an agreement on a future relationship" acting to legally prevent the UK from becoming "indefinitely and involuntarily detained" in the Northern Irish enduring backstop, with no legal process to ever leave without the express agreement of the EU.
The deal was not negotiated between the EU and "his predecessor". It was made between the EU and UK. The UK has second thoughts and isn't prepared to stick to what they agreed to. The fact that the reason for this "breach of contract" is that Parliament has downvoted the deal is an internal matter (national) and not relevant on the international stage.
If the EU cuts some slack more then it did it would be the end of it. This kind of behaviour from UK goverment like a child wanting independance but not willing to move out should be punished and kicked out already. Its been 4 years, move out.
your annalysis is bombastic and supid. Have you not u derstood? The country is divided, the remainers don't want to leave and they are only doing this to honour democracy. The leavers want out, gone, clean break, no deal. We've had a remainer prime minister for 3 years. You get it now?
@@alexanderthegreat7213 Quoting Teresa May: "The campaign was fought... and the public gave their verdict. There must be no attempts to remain inside the EU, no attempts to rejoin it through the back door... Brexit means Brexit" So..no I still dont understand the hold up for the last 4 years. This is dragging on for way too long. Looking forward to October with high hopes and wishing UK the best of luck in the future and the EU to make necesary changes once you are out. This is affecting us all and a lot of changes are being made so UK is making a big hold up here. Move.
Nobody knows what Boris is really thinking. I think he's having a try at a new deal, but secretly believes it ain't happening, and a hard brexit is what is going to happen. But then everyone will believe he did his best and we move on.
Boris PM: I thank the 3.2 million EU nationals for their work and contributions to the UK Boris Brexiteer: These EU nationals are coming here and taking advantage of our system!! I don't understand why they decided to cast a Trump imitator as PM for the new season of Brexit
TL;DR, consider using Secular Talk's way around the demonetisation thing. Avoid using trigger words in your titles. Make notes on what is and is not included in titles when demonetised and try to work out a pattern. He uses accents on the letters of trigger words. Instead of, "Brexit", consider, "Bréxit". It might look stupid, but it definitely worked for him. I also don't know if Brexit itself would be a trigger word, but anything that might be controversial to advertisers does tend to get demonetised. Keep up the good work and if I ever see an demonetised video, I'll be sure to click another of your videos to watch the ads and let you get paid!
You forgot the most important point of the backstop - preventing disruption of current GFA related cross-border cooperation & allowing for future cross-border cooperation
Niall001 , not really, don’t forget the Brexit is primarily an English project, not an UK one. The English simply do not care a bit about Irish well being, never did, never will. While EU support has been massively and united.
No deal brexit would be illegal for 2 reasons. 1st: It would breach the Good Friday agreement which is an internationally legally binding treaty signed into international law by the UN security council. 2nd: The withdrawal agreement (voted into British law by parliament 3yrs ago) specifically states that brexit can only happen in circumstances that prevent any border infrastructure. I'll just add that the £39 billion owed to the EU is legally binding although the amount owed has decreased to roughly £32billion because Britain won't be leaving until at least October 31st.
The GFA does NOT say there cannot be a border in Ireland. Think about this. If, as you claim, it does then why does the EU need the backstop at all? What would be the point if the GFA already said there cannot be a border? Why demand it in a new treaty if it is already in an existing one? I suggest you read the GFA. It is freely available online, technically called the Belfast Agreement, and isn't that long. It barely mentions the border at all, and doesn't mention border posts at all. It talks about 'reducing' military installations, but border posts are civilian not military. Secondly, that £39 billion is not legally binding. It is part of the WA and even Michel Barnier said that until and unless it is fully ratified by both sides it is meaningless. Parliament rejected it. Three times. It is not remotely binding. Since the deal has not been ratified the EU will not be honouring all the things it promised in that deal, so why should the UK be forced to honour parts of it? The EU cannot cherry pick bits of the deal it likes and demand the UK honours those while ignoring everything else including the promises they made in the deal.
@@karlbassett8485 I've already read it but you obviously haven't. You have also demonstrated complete ignorance of the wto. Under wto rules, if the uk leave without a deal then a border has to be implemented and everything passing through the border must be checked. That is WHY the backstop is necessary, because it would prevent the hard border until such time as another solution can be found
@@karlbassett8485 As for the £32 billion which is the amount it is now; you are correct in a way; you see the uk actually owed more than that at the beginning of the negotiations but were able to barter it down to £39b. However because you didn't leave in March and won't be leaving until 31st October the figure which you would have owed for the extra few months gets taken away bringing it down to £32billion. However leaving without a deal means that theoretically the eu could decide that no deal includes the original £39billion and go after the uk for the full amount
@@paulhunt2140 Please quote the text in the GFA that says there cannot be a hard border. The GFA barely mentions the border, and doesn't mention border posts or checks at all. It mentions security installations but that is talking about military posts. It doesn't even hint at border checks, which are civilian anyway. And even then it is talking about "reduction" in forces to a level of a "normal security level". Well most countries in the world have border checks during normal peacetime. And again, if the GFA says there cannot be a border then why would the EU need the backstop to say there cannot be a border? If it is already in one treaty why demand it be in another treaty?
The EU holds all the cards.. Goodbye UK, please take the jump. Hello Scotland welcome back (EU) Divorce settlement will be paid eventually, either initially or at the Trade Deal. Where’s the threat? You don’t pay, no trade deal.
Boris is going to use the Donald Trump playbook for negotiations: "I'm a tough negotiator, many people say that!" [nothing changes] "I got a great new deal, maybe the best deal in the history of deals!"

TLDR News Explain to a brazilian: what is the matter of a hard border?
@@edsr164 The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland share a border on the island of Ireland. Ireland was once part of the UK for about 120 years and a colony for even longer before that but separated to form an independent state but not all of Ireland left the UK. Part of it, Northern Ireland, stayed in the UK. This caused a lot of problems with everyone who had an opinion of what should have happened and it led to decades of violence. Eventually a treaty, called The Good Friday Agreement, was signed which opened the border on Ireland and removed all border checkpoints to allow people living there to move freely and gave the right of people from Northern Ireland to apply for and receive citizenship in the Republic of Ireland. This was a very long peace process involving the UK, the Rep. of Ireland, the US and the EU and they got all parties involved in murdering each other for the last fifty years to agree to stop the violence. Restoring the border breaks this treaty and has already led to violent attacks and a new wave of terrorist activities. The border has to be put in place if the UK leave as it would then be considered a border with a non EU country and the EU has to maintain it's borders in exactly the same way with all of it's neighbours that it has no treaty with just like every other country does. This is a very short answer but the full one would take too long to explain.
I have a question: why don’t they just have a reffarendum in Northern Ireland (only) to decide what they want? After all if we don’t want violence ask them.
Which one of your videos was demonetised, "Boris Johnson is the New Prime Minister - TLDR News": as your video suggest, or the one posted a couple of days ago, as you mentioned: "Johnson's First Speech to Parliament Explained - TLDR News" ?

Just a heads up. Randomly placed ads in the middle of a video is pretty disruptive. Especially for a news show trying to condense tricky subjects.
Maybe consider turning them off. Especially on videos where you're flashing your Patreon because you don't get enough ads. It makes that whole thing look like greed, imo.
If someone's speeches or actions are illogical or stupid, an unbiased media MUST call them out on it. That's a mistake "fans" make when defending their idols: calling every single criticism "biased", and a mistake some journalist make when they try to look unbiased and find as many qualities as defaults in everything.
I'd argue it's quite the opposite: if you know something is bullsh*t and don't say so, you are presenting biased information.
All in all, I think you are making quite a good job.
Your second paragraph is it in a nutshell. The majority of the brexit defense is utterly illogical, and it's defense by brexiteers in the face of actual evidence contradicting their arguments is a bias far stronger than anything put out by the "biased mainstream media" as they call it

We are already doing lots of mini deals with the EU in preparation for No deal. to ensure supply of medicines and air travel etc)
Germany has nothing to win and everything to lose in a No Deal exit. In the short run they are teetering at the edge of recession and in the long run risk losing more faithful EU slave colonies if everyone sees Brexit is successful.

@@steveaustin4118 - "I'd agree the remain made no effort to make a case for staying in the EU, only scare tactics"
I mean, what can you reasonably expect from a debate between "take negative action" and "don't"? The remain position was "don't do that", so literally argument has to be about why doing that is bad. You can call that "fear tactics" only in the same way you could call "you'll lose your leg" a fear tactic against someone threatening to shoot themselves in the leg.
Leave had another benefit against the remain campaign in that they had literally no actionable items in their proposal. "Leave the EU" is so open ended that anyone could assign whatever meaning they personally wanted onto it and tell themselves that's what they were voting for. Remain was, again, a non-action and therefore could only argue the downsides of leaving, but with no actual plan there are no points to debate. Plus, whenever leave says something like, "well X popular brexit talking point is bad because A, B, and C" the rebuttal can just be "yeah, well I don't support X, Y is what brexit is going to be" ad-nausium.
"telling the poor neglected that the rich may be worse off as well as them isn't a good ploy."
Wait, who said that? The rich are going to lose little on a personal level, and have a hell of a lot to gain from a localized UK market crash. Think it's hard to buy real estate now? Just wait until the markets crash and prices plummet, but no one can get a loan and loses their job and has to sell at shit rates, which then get bought up by - wait for it - rich wealthy landowners who moved their assets out of the UK before the crash. Congrats, you've now moved even more capital into the hands of the already filthy rich.

I think the EU has done an excellent job managing BREXIT. They have stayed on message and unified. They graciously accepted the UK's request to leave the EU and showed sadness. The EU is under no obligation to give the UK any favorable terms now or in the future.
It comes back to what bargaining chips does the UK have at this time? Two-years on the UK side has made demands that have been rejected while the EU have actually prepared for a post BREXIT trading arrangement (while the UK has simply talked).

What amazes me about the whole situation is how entitled and spoiled the UK has been throughout the process, acting as if they will graciously stay if given everything they want, this is to misunderstand the situation, article 50, which the UK not the Eu triggered states that two years after it is invoked the UK will leave the Eu, any deal between the two is secondary.

If my memory serves me, the EU proposed a temporary customs union with NI alone and then have the alternative arrangements in the sea. But the DUP didn’t like this at all. Imagine laws in NI would diverge from those in the UK, impossible!
You´re absolutely right. The EU was focused on damage control. All the Brexit mess is 100% of UK origin (by messing the withdrawal agreement with domestic agenda).

I live in Australia so I have a view of an outsider and I know it so emotional for all those involved in the UK, but believe me we live under WTO rules and there is nothing “magical” about them. If you resent the EU attempting to subvert your laws, wait until you see what the US will want as part of a trade deal!!!! If you dont believe me look at what they wanted in the Trans Pacific Partnership to which Australia was a part. The ability to subvert laws such as anti smoking laws and subsidised medicine etc in a secret tribunal hearing.which would totally subvert Australian domestic law and our version of the NHS which is treasured as much in Australia as your NHS. Don’t wish too hard you might get what you want!!
They tried this with the EU too. Directly it did not came with TTIP, since the people of some EU countries demonstrated enough in the last minute (well, when the politicians came out of their secret meetings to the public with the plan). But such things only work if you have an economy which can compete with the US one I would imagine.
The monied confraternity of the UK are working in tandem with their brothers in the USA to make extinct forever structures like the British National Health Service.
American citizens have been successfully deprived of the right to public Health funded by their taxes, but the existence of it in Britain is a thorn in the side of medico-pharma monopoly of the USA.
The Brexiteer runt within the Tory party, now in the ascendant, is the British arm of Big Pharma, Commercialised Healthcare etc.
Don't stop criticising politicians like Johnson or whomever because some people "don't like it". Scrutiny is one of the most important things that needs to be done by any political commentator, and you're always unbiased in your views.
Don't stop doing that because it upsets people who take any fair criticism as an opportunity to spark outrage, the news needs to be objective, and care more about facts than feelings (sorry for quoting Ben Shapiro everybody).
I agree on the not stopping criticising thing, but beware that everybody is naturally biased. The content here is excellent but you should always get your news from multiple sources to get a wider view and enable you to come up with more informed opinions yourself.

Don't worry your wee head Ulster will not be leaving the UK anytime soon
This whole situation is only a problem because brexiteers are also staunch unionists. If they were happy to let Northern Island and probably Scotland go independent then this could all have been solved years ago. The fact that they went into brexit seemingly not realizing that these two unchangeable tenets of their ideology were mutually exclusive is kinda baffling, as it was blindingly obvious to everyone else who looked at the idea for even five minutes.
I don't think they are unionists tbh, but the brexiteers need the support of the DUP to have a majority in parliament.
It is the last bit of their empire that's left.

Again, you keep saying _”renegotiation”_ as if that’s even an option...
Why wouldn't it be? We have two sides. One is saying they will not accept X only Y. The other saying they won't accept Y only X. Why do you take ones side as entitled and justified to refuse to renegotiate and accept their public statements as written in stone by god himself yet treat the other side as deluded and chasing a fantasy?
It is just as valid to say the UK Parliament has rejected the deal (three times, with the PM doing everything to force it through!) and so the EU is the one chasing a fantasy that isn't even an option.
It is, and if not we enter into an era of emnity between the EU and the UK. Quite a few enemies the EU is adding up, east and west.
It isn't, but Boris and his idiot brexit fan club think it is because for some reason they assume the UK is bigger than the rest of the EU and can play hardball to force them into renegotiating and capitulating on everything.
@@KingBobXVI KingBob, Boris isn't assuming the EU will capitulate. The word is they don't think they will and are now going full steam preparing for a no deal Brexit. His public comments are for the rest of Parliament and to show that he is still trying for a deal even though privately he thinks it won't happen. So the UK leaves with no deal, gets to keep most of that £39 billion, and can start to agree trade deals with countries around the world. The EUs share of world trade is shrinking. Areas like Brazil, India and China are where the real growth will be in the next few decades.
Whatever about renegotiations, two things aren't up for discussion. The divorce payment and, absolutely 100% certainly not ever, the backstop.
Other than that there can be negotiations. But the answer will be no.
I hope and I expect the EU will stand their ground as if they let the UK leave with a sweet deal, all the benefits without the costs, more countries will follow. That will weaken the position of what is now one of the three powerhouses in the worldwide economy.
So if the UK wants out, it’s either on the EU terms or No Deal as the latter will hurt the EU less. The UK gambled and (probably) lost.
Uk gamble on the German car industry, sadly for them Germans already said that the union is more important than the financial hit, right now they are betting on Ireland and EU not letting Ireland get too much damage, sadly for them i don't think that will work as EU is working on minimize the damage Ireland take and UK will take it in the ass again

Auryon And the 1% profit from it all. Like in the US the missed screw themselves. And I don’t think the UK population really wanted to leave. They wanted to give the EU the middlefibger and stay in.

Hey TLDR,
You should be making news based on facts and reality, not what people want to hear. If people don't like you criticising Johnson, then that's frankly their problem, as long as your arguments hold water and stand up to scrutiny. If Johnson's policies are bonkers, then it's your job as a media outlet to point that out - regardless of whether your viewers like it or not. It journalistic integrity, which sometimes involves speaking uncomfortable truths.
You don't want to be too critical of Johnson because people hated it?!!! What about telling it as it is instead of accommodating to what people like or don't like?
Unfortunately that's not how you get food on the table.
I agree with Johnson on one point - it is time to either be in our be out, several years of nothing is too destructive.
My view is remain is best, leave at all costs is next best and continuing to fart arse around is worst.
@A Id Indeed 'remain' is the best option. However think of the analogy of a tooth being taken out.
Going to the Dentist every day so he can wobble it a bit crack it a bit and after two years it is still there and hurting.
OR
Go to the dentist and have the tooth taken out, some blood, some pain, and then some healing and a week later stops hurting and a few months later it is completely healed.
Sure - brexit no deal will hurt, but it will also mean that the UK can start healing.
@@Craznar Not to be rude but a "tooth being pulled out" in this case will affect millions of lives for several years, perhaps decades, to come. The stakes aren't the same, the economy isn't a band-aid.

Do another referendum
There is still no solution to the Ireland border question.
Yes there is. Give Northern Ireland back to Ireland, and all problems will disappear
Yes there is. Remain.
Some people have (seriously?) suggested Irexit as a solution even though the Irish have no will to leave the EU...
Yes there is. Its very simple, NI stays in the single market and the UK - the origional ni only backstop offer. The DUP does not speak for the majority in the north (less than 36%, maybe even lower now,). The majority of the north would vote for this if given the chance - nearly 2/3 voted to stay in the eu. Why are they not given the chance - the dup are propping the tories effectively breaking the terms of the GFA.
Whatever overhaul the backstop and May´s deal will experience in new negotiations, it will still necessary to navigate the new deal through 28 governments and many parlaments. Most european countires would have to organize a parlamentary majority, just like the UK.
But all that efford contains the risk, that the Commons will reject it. How often european and british politicans can afford to push for a compromise, explain it to their opposition and sceptical citizens, who very often think that the Britts should be kicked out the EU w/o further ado?
Any alteration of May´s deal, any accomodation of Johnson, who ridiculed and insulted europaen institution a million times, would boost the anti-EU-forces, especially on the right side of the political spectrum. These guys are complaining about a weak and treacherous EU anyways, predicting the downfall of Brussels in favor of "old elites" and to the detriment of "the people". Sounds familiar, right?
So the EU can simply not afford to come Boris´ way. On many levels it´s too risky. For my home country Germany I can tell you, that any movement towards Britain would be recognized as defeat, would strengthen anti-EU resentment and undermine the authority of our national government.

jonnyblucky ... I don’t particularly like Johnson, but you don’t have the kind of career he’s had without being a very clever individual. His success will, imo, rely on the quality of the staff he puts together.
no single tory prime minister has survived the european question and so wont the entire party.
Johnson thinks the EU needs urgently that 39 bln. cooking them hot to have best condition for UK only. I wouldn't subscribe that because EU has to make sure that condition being a member of EU is better than not to be a member of EU. This is fundamental regardless about what money they talking about. Also a no deal does not remove that 39 bln. which is not a gift from UK to EU but a bill from several commitments UK made.
The risk of a bad performed brexit is still higher on UK's side than to the EU where the risk is additional devided among several states.
Plus, is not longer 39 billions. The contributions to the EU budget for the seven months since "brexit day" needs to be deducted from that number, meaning the hole in the budget becomes smaller (8.7 billions for the 8 months to the end of the fiscal year instead of 16.3 billions for 15 months from the end of march). And as TL;DR said, there are things included in the exit bill the UK has to pay no matter what.
Germany owes trillions to the UK because of WW1 and WW2... so it's completely fair if UK doesn't give the average taxpayers money to fascists. Hitler lost, deal with it.
@@Imman1s with No deal the UK dosnt have to pah diddly squat
If the EU are insistent on the fact that the deal on the table, which parliament have stated clearly three times they won't pass, is all they're offering then to me it seems to be them who don't want a deal, in which case, the only way we can leave is without a deal. Putting our main focus there is therefore quite sensible. Should they choose that they're willing to renegotiate we can, but they have completely unrealistic expectations if they think parliament would ever accept the deal on the table unchanged.
The EU cant offer a better deal without risking its existence. On top of that there is no indication that the new negotiations will be any different than the previous ones. So there is little point in having negotiations.
@@JohnDoe-kv3cm I have a feeling that if they made just enough changes to the backstop to make the agreement the EU signed a few months ago legally binding it would likely be enough to get the current deal through parliament, especially if that was seen as the only way to avoid no deal. The EU have already agreed to those things, so it doesn't cost them anything, and it'd be enough for Cox to change his advice, which affected a lot of MPs vote last time.
@@stephenhorton What agreement?
@@JohnDoe-kv3cm Ah, My wording of that wasn't the best, but what I mean is what people were expecting the documents on March 11th 2019 (I think that was the date anyway) to contain - the ones that the Attorney General, Geoffrey Cox, made a statement to the house regarding. The agreements basically don't include the case where "despite the parties properly fulfilling the duties of good faith and best endeavours they cannot reach an agreement on a future relationship" acting to legally prevent the UK from becoming "indefinitely and involuntarily detained" in the Northern Irish enduring backstop, with no legal process to ever leave without the express agreement of the EU.

The deal was not negotiated between the EU and "his predecessor". It was made between the EU and UK. The UK has second thoughts and isn't prepared to stick to what they agreed to. The fact that the reason for this "breach of contract" is that Parliament has downvoted the deal is an internal matter (national) and not relevant on the international stage.
If the EU cuts some slack more then it did it would be the end of it. This kind of behaviour from UK goverment like a child wanting independance but not willing to move out should be punished and kicked out already. Its been 4 years, move out.
your annalysis is bombastic and supid. Have you not u derstood? The country is divided, the remainers don't want to leave and they are only doing this to honour democracy. The leavers want out, gone, clean break, no deal. We've had a remainer prime minister for 3 years. You get it now?
@@alexanderthegreat7213 Quoting Teresa May: "The campaign was fought... and the public gave their verdict. There must be no attempts to remain inside the EU, no attempts to rejoin it through the back door... Brexit means Brexit" So..no I still dont understand the hold up for the last 4 years. This is dragging on for way too long. Looking forward to October with high hopes and wishing UK the best of luck in the future and the EU to make necesary changes once you are out. This is affecting us all and a lot of changes are being made so UK is making a big hold up here. Move.
Nobody knows what Boris is really thinking. I think he's having a try at a new deal, but secretly believes it ain't happening, and a hard brexit is what is going to happen. But then everyone will believe he did his best and we move on.
He is going for a general election after he showed the world his big hard balls. Once the dices are rolled .... we'll see
Boris PM: I thank the 3.2 million EU nationals for their work and contributions to the UK
Boris Brexiteer: These EU nationals are coming here and taking advantage of our system!!
I don't understand why they decided to cast a Trump imitator as PM for the new season of Brexit
7:22 Gibraltar with shoes looks to be terrified of something! Though given the situation they're in, I can't say I'm surprised.
We're heading towards a No Deal. Sad! Aand... First...
TL;DR, consider using Secular Talk's way around the demonetisation thing. Avoid using trigger words in your titles. Make notes on what is and is not included in titles when demonetised and try to work out a pattern. He uses accents on the letters of trigger words. Instead of, "Brexit", consider, "Bréxit". It might look stupid, but it definitely worked for him. I also don't know if Brexit itself would be a trigger word, but anything that might be controversial to advertisers does tend to get demonetised. Keep up the good work and if I ever see an demonetised video, I'll be sure to click another of your videos to watch the ads and let you get paid!
I trust in Mr Claude Junker to humiliate Johnson.
Don't let randos yelling at you stop you from giving your honest and pretty unbiased opinion. I think you're doing great.
I know that technically he is in fact PM, but... I don't think you're supposed to count it if it's Boris Johnson. Just sayin'
Gibraltar looks really surprised
You forgot the most important point of the backstop - preventing disruption of current GFA related cross-border cooperation & allowing for future cross-border cooperation
Niall001 , not really, don’t forget the Brexit is primarily an English project, not an UK one. The English simply do not care a bit about Irish well being, never did, never will. While EU support has been massively and united.
I think it's impossible to be too critical of Johnson. Keep it up!
Boris Baldrick Johnson: I have a *cunning* plan!
No deal brexit would be illegal for 2 reasons. 1st: It would breach the Good Friday agreement which is an internationally legally binding treaty signed into international law by the UN security council.
2nd: The withdrawal agreement (voted into British law by parliament 3yrs ago) specifically states that brexit can only happen in circumstances that prevent any border infrastructure.
I'll just add that the £39 billion owed to the EU is legally binding although the amount owed has decreased to roughly £32billion because Britain won't be leaving until at least October 31st.
The GFA does NOT say there cannot be a border in Ireland.
Think about this. If, as you claim, it does then why does the EU need the backstop at all? What would be the point if the GFA already said there cannot be a border? Why demand it in a new treaty if it is already in an existing one?
I suggest you read the GFA. It is freely available online, technically called the Belfast Agreement, and isn't that long. It barely mentions the border at all, and doesn't mention border posts at all. It talks about 'reducing' military installations, but border posts are civilian not military.
Secondly, that £39 billion is not legally binding. It is part of the WA and even Michel Barnier said that until and unless it is fully ratified by both sides it is meaningless. Parliament rejected it. Three times.
It is not remotely binding. Since the deal has not been ratified the EU will not be honouring all the things it promised in that deal, so why should the UK be forced to honour parts of it? The EU cannot cherry pick bits of the deal it likes and demand the UK honours those while ignoring everything else including the promises they made in the deal.
@@karlbassett8485 I've already read it but you obviously haven't. You have also demonstrated complete ignorance of the wto. Under wto rules, if the uk leave without a deal then a border has to be implemented and everything passing through the border must be checked. That is WHY the backstop is necessary, because it would prevent the hard border until such time as another solution can be found
@@karlbassett8485 As for the £32 billion which is the amount it is now; you are correct in a way; you see the uk actually owed more than that at the beginning of the negotiations but were able to barter it down to £39b. However because you didn't leave in March and won't be leaving until 31st October the figure which you would have owed for the extra few months gets taken away bringing it down to £32billion. However leaving without a deal means that theoretically the eu could decide that no deal includes the original £39billion and go after the uk for the full amount
@@paulhunt2140 Please quote the text in the GFA that says there cannot be a hard border. The GFA barely mentions the border, and doesn't mention border posts or checks at all. It mentions security installations but that is talking about military posts. It doesn't even hint at border checks, which are civilian anyway. And even then it is talking about "reduction" in forces to a level of a "normal security level". Well most countries in the world have border checks during normal peacetime.
And again, if the GFA says there cannot be a border then why would the EU need the backstop to say there cannot be a border? If it is already in one treaty why demand it be in another treaty?

Hello Scotland welcome back (EU)
Divorce settlement will be paid eventually, either initially or at the Trade Deal. Where’s the threat?
You don’t pay, no trade deal.
His Brexit plan is no different than the previous ones - negotiate a better deal, based on the delusion that the UK has some kind of leverage.
Boris is going to use the Donald Trump playbook for negotiations:
"I'm a tough negotiator, many people say that!"
[nothing changes]
"I got a great new deal, maybe the best deal in the history of deals!"
He's doing what May should have done. Exciting times for GB - goodbye Brussels, hello world.
