Here is the latest fiction from TM]
"
here is the 12-point plan set out in the Government's White Paper:
1. 'Certainty and clarity' and a vote for Parliament on final deal
Mrs May warned there will be 'give and take' in the upcoming negotiations, compromises will be inevitable and 'not everybody will be able to know everything at every stage'.
But she promised she will give MPs and peers a vote on the final deal that is agreed between the UK and the EU - expected to be in early 2019.
2. 'Control of our own laws'
The UK will take control of our own affairs once again by ending the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice, the Prime Minister announced.
She said laws will only be made in Westminster, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast, adding: 'Those laws will be interpreted by judges not in Luxembourg but in courts across this country.'
3. Strengthen the United Kingdom
Mrs May's third pledge is to strengthen the ‘precious union’ between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
She said it is 'more important than ever that we face the future together' because we are 'united by what makes us strong: the bonds that unite us as a people, and our shared interest in the UK being an open, successful trading nation in the future.'
She assured this would not mean any devolved powers being removed from the Scottish, Welsh and Northern Ireland institutions.
4. No hard border in Ireland
The PM promised to reach a 'practical solution' to maintain the Common Travel Area with the Republic of Ireland.
She pointed out that the freedom to move between Northern Ireland and the Republic had been in place since before both nations joined the EU.
'Nobody wants to return to the borders of the past, so we will make it a priority to deliver a practical solution as soon as we can,' she said.
5. Regain control of immigration
Britain will 'control immigration to Britain from Europe' by scrapping freedom of movement rules, Mrs May said in one of the most important pledges of her speech.
She insisted the UK will 'continue to attract the brightest and the best' to work and study here but said the process will be 'managed properly so that our immigration system serves the national interest'.
It means the years of open borders between Britain and the 27 other EU member states will be slammed shut when we cut ties with Brussels.
The absence of a 100 per cent guarantee on protecting the rights of EU nationals currently in the UK has already sparked trouble with Tory MPs
6. Rights of EU nationals in Britain and British expats in Europe
Mrs May promised to reach a deal with her European rivals 'as soon as we can' to guarantee the rights of EU nationals already living in the UK to stay here after Brexit.
She said this would involve a reciprocal deal for British expats living on the continent to remain there.
7. Protect workers' rights
In a bid to reassure and win the backing of trade unions and the Labour party the PM said her EU deal will not only translate EU law on workers' rights into UK law but said she will 'build on them'.
8. Free trade deal with European markets
Appealing to her European rivals not to punish Britain, Mrs May said her approach to free trade will prioritise Europe.
She wants a 'bold and ambitious free trade agreement with the European Union' that allows the 'freest possible trade in goods and services' between Britain and the other 27 EU member states.
9. New trade deals with the rest of the world
When Britain frees itself from EU rules banning us from striking individual deals with other nations it will 'increase significantly its trade with the fastest growing export markets in the world'.
Branding her trade policy 'global Britain,' she said: 'Since joining the EU, trade as a percentage of GDP has broadly stagnated in the UK.
'That is why it is time for Britain to get out into the world and rediscover its role as a great, global, trading nation.'
She promised that the International Trade Secretary Liam Fox will lead the charge to strike new trade deals with the likes of China, Brazil, the US and the Commonwealth.
10. To make Britain the best place for science and innovation
Mrs May said her vision of 'global Britain' must also be a country that looks to the future'.
'That means being one of the best places in the world for science and innovation,' she said as she promised not to cut back but to deepen our collaboration with our European partners on major science, research and technology initiatives.
11. Cooperation to fight terrorism
She also pledged that leaving the EU will not mean any weakening of our partnership with Europe on fighting crime and terrorism.
Terrorism is a threat that cannot be dealt with bilaterally and Europe must 'face the challenge of cross-border crime, a deadly terrorist threat, and the dangers presented by hostile states' together, Mrs May said.
This would mean our authorities continuing to share intelligence material with our EU allies, as well as a keeping the united resistance to Russian aggression whether through sanctions of through the Nato military alliance.
12. A 'smooth, orderly Brexit'
Finally, the Prime Minister promised that she will pursue all of her objectives in a 'smooth and orderly' approach in the negotiations.
She promised to protect business from a 'cliff-edge' scenario where they are left stranded in a regulatory no man's land.
Instead, she promised a 'phased process of implementation,' where institutions in Britain, Brussels and EU member states prepare for the new arrangements and give businesses enough time to plan and prepare for the new partnerships.
'This might be about our immigration controls, customs systems or the way in which we cooperate on criminal justice matters.
'Or it might be about the future legal and regulatory framework for financial services. For each issue, the time we need to phase-in the new arrangements may differ. Some might be introduced very quickly, some might take longer. And the interim arrangements we rely upon are likely to be a matter of negotiation.
'But the purpose is clear: we will seek to avoid a disruptive cliff-edge, and we will do everything we can to phase in the new arrangements we require as Britain and the EU move towards our new partnership.'
Is that it? how disappointing as there will be no more control over our borders that there is now.
We don't have the money or the industry to compete with the Isle of Wight
if we're lucky the EU will feed us some scraps to keep London going till they relocate the finance centre to Frankfurt.
Let's cut this down to a few bullet points
- The government wants to have the power to legally oppress the people
- It thinks that a fictional promise to control immigration will do as it has no intention of being serious on that for Profit reasons
- Our borders will not be protected as it costs too much
- London will continue for a while till the business moves to Frankfurt
- We will continue trading with the EU on terms they dictate as we are years away from being able to replace that trade
- World trade is on a "Downward Spiral" said Davis, don't blame Brexit when the economy takes a nose dive!
So there you have it we are to become vassal of the EU, obeying rules and laws we can't change to keep the trade when we were one of it masters and guided it's fate.
A triumph for crass stupidity.
How many of the 17 million who voted for it will be taken in and applaud?
What happened to Brexit is Brexit?
This must be one of the craziest white papers of all time, it sounds like a surrender document, literally sacrificing a safe future for no justifiable reason other than to satisfy two groups
- Those of the ruling elite who see a sell off of our assets and a chance to profit thereby, at the same time reducing the rights of the Public in work, health benefits and freedom back to the dark days of the industrial revolution.
- To fob off the general public that their complaints have been listened to and acted on, when in fact the Government now has them by "The short and curlies" and can do what it likes with them, far from controlling the Government, it has increased it's grip on them!
