ROFL.....the cold turkey OVEN READY deal! All ye who voted boris, this is the cold turkey all ye have been waiting for and are getting this Christmas!

This was a known fact that boris is not going to be an abled man but people chose to vote the clown in. Again, we reap what we sow, but I did not vote for this clown!
any cohones in the oven ?

Thumbs up for bringing reasoned comment to the forum. I have an observation to make: any mention of 'good' or 'bad' as an adjective attached to 'deal' is indicating their prejudiced position.
I want there to be a deal more than I do not but I have absolutely no idea as to whether it can be classed as good or bad until some time hence. One person's 'good' is another's 'bad'. I believe a deal is preferable in order that, above all else, we can all move on and learn to live with whatever the conditions are to be and a slim deal based on no tariffs etc would be best of all NOW, I think. Being as near 'all-in' or as near 'all-out' would probably be best for BOTH the EU and UK. Both the EU and UK economies need to be moving in a direction of progress for the future and not looking back. I have always said that free markets should be allowed to get on with things on their own without politicians meddling. Idealistic, I know, and realism will always mean the politicians have to be seen to be doing something, so the sooner it gets cleared up and we can move on the better.

i think good or bad deal relates to how workable the normal economy will be after brexit, and therefore how likely it is that things will continue to operate under the new conditions.
If the deal is "bad" it suggests it is not realistically workable and at risk of needing to be changed/adjusted etc at a later date.
But as you said, where good or bad is on a scale it down to ones view or exact position, ones own personal and business circumstances i suppose

What many overlook though is that any deal is relevant ONLY to that moment in time. If people stick to something that is no longer fit for purpose then they will fall foul of competition. Snooze, you lose. It's a profound thought relating to the globe now as the pace of change has magnified and being shackled to 'old rules, laws or traditions is a recipe for disaster. that is why I often comment that people overlook the advantage that the UK may have in being unencumbered and nimble for the future, rather than held by the protectionist base of the EU. The UK joined a forward-thinking, fast-growth economic pact and a 'light or slim deal' may the best way forward for all. If you observe the pacts being formed in Africa, Asia and the Americas, they don't depend on the over-arching protectionist, binding rules of a slow-moving monopolistic approach. It's a dilemma for the EU to deal with. Politically that binding keeps peace in the EU but at what longer-term economic cost? It's hard to see how the EU elite will vote for or oversee their own gravy-train.
bottom line is deal or no deal...
looking more No deal for now...
Not over yet, something tells me the smart money's geting set for a deal (Brave call I know, trade the charts)

Derr, error: should have finished . . . . "their own gravy-boat being removed."

Smart money can't bet against the Fed's money printer and the weakening USD.

Like you say, trade the charts.

not really a brave deal..thats the consensus...
If he sticks to his guns then GBP will drop quite sharply before it bounces back up again it'll be a bouncing ball for a while yet. He's doing the right thing though the EU are going through their usual process of getting the UK to give away their land, seas and air space, keep the huge deficits running. No sane country would sign for that. It'll be up to the wire on 31st December.
