UK Parliament Passes EU Withdrawal Bill, Setting January 31 As the Day the UK Regains Its Sovereignty
They still need the Queen's blessing, but that's a formality.
Wednesday’s vote paves the way for the UK to leave the EU on 31 January, awaiting formal permission from Her Majesty The Queen. "At times it felt like we would never cross the Brexit finish line, but we’ve done it," Prime Minister Johnson declared following the vote.The EU is preparing for vengeance:
While the EU has agreed to Britain leaving the bloc, news reports suggest that Brussels intends to punish its leading trading partner and Europe's second-largest economy. “EU preparing to give UK worse trade deal terms than Canada or Japan,” The Telegraph reported on Monday. Brussels is planning to hit Britain where it hurts the most. The European Commission, the EU’s executive arm, has drawn up a hit list to target the British financial sector for defying the EU to dictate regulations following the Brexit.

The game of chicken is on. The constant Brexit delay has given the EU time to develop some on the necessary infrastructure in Frankfurt and Paris, but I don't think it's enough. This will hurt the EU, too.
And London clearance, even if frozen out of the EU, is still globally relevant. And you can be sure there will be a US trade deal toot sweet.
The EU *needs* Britain to collapse. If she doesn't, then other countries might get uppity.

When it comes to trade it is hard to punish the UK without also damaging the EU. Also you significantly lesson the likelihood they will ever return. And no doubt the U.S. will que up a very favorable trade treaty with the UK ASAP.
The only point to punishing the UK is to keep any other EU member from leaving, but that high handed bullshit is exactly what will cause them to leave.

Britain's economy will grow faster than those of other major European countries this year as chief executives regard it as an increasingly attractive place to invest, two studies have found.
Amid growing optimism over Britain's economic outlook, the International Monetary Fund said that it would outperform the eurozone this year and next.
Assuming there is an orderly Brexit at the end of the month, and a gradual transition to a new relationship with the bloc, growth would accelerate from 1.3 per cent last year to 1.4 per cent this year and 1.5 per cent in 2021, it said.
It would be hilarious if Britain and the US saw growth, and the EU saw a recession.

The EU bureaucracy and the governments of the member countries care about money and privilege. There's much money to be made by trading with the UK. If the British govt take an uncompromising hard line, and the US backs them up, the EU will quietly surrender after a decent interval. For the money.
The EU countries are eager to do business with with Iran, North Korea, and Russia. They have no principles, other than money and privilege.

We need an anglosphere trade arrangement: UK, Ireland, Australia, Canada, US, New Zealand, and Hong Kong, even India although they are not fond of the UK.

Two soul crushing conflicts (the Social Darwinist War and the follow on War of Ideologies) in a 30 year period have left the continent spiritually spent. Everyone in charge was looking to create the EU to prevent another conflict like that and to show those lousy Americans how Europe can act forcefully in the world without force.

They didn't want it, their donors didn't want it, only the voters wanted it.

Got to spend a few weeks in Germany not too long ago. Freakin' windmills everywhere in the countryside. Recently saw an article where German towns were starting to push back about installations.
It was a group trip led by a German who was a professor here in the states. We spent some time in his home town. He hadn't been back in about a decade and it was interesting to see him confused by the changes. The little downtown looked like a lot of small town American downtowns with things closed all over the place. But, he seemed oblivious that a lot of the things he espoused led to the exact things he missed. Even heard one German talk about some guy he knew shipping his factory to China. Germany is busy making the same mistakes we made.

Posted by: WOPR at January 23, 2020 03:34 PM (UkvxG)
+++++++++++++++
In part. They can act forcefully in the world with US force. But the key point - cooperation instead of continuous, world-ending bloodshed - was the root of it. The problem, though, is they threw the baby (nation-state government, preferably democratic) out with the bathwater (continuous continental war). The idea of having treaties and trade and generally good behavior and maybe easy (though not free) movement of people and capital morphed into a monster. It became monstrous when they formed the customs union. Then they threw their weight around the continent: join or no access to markets - that is, join or starve (except you, Switzerland. You're cool.).
Out of the "no more continental conflict" goal came a communist superstate with no accountability and no checks on their power. Out of that goal came the appalling "community method" of legislature.
But as you think about it, remember: if you don't permit Brussels to dictate the shape of apples sold in your supermarkets, Germany will invade Poland again.

Hedges took issue with what he described as Democrats' "selective use" of constitutional violations that he argued were normalized under the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations.
He pointed to Bush declaring war on Iraq without congressional approval and Obama's reinterpretation of the Authorization for Use of Military Force that was first passed in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"The constitutional violations that they've charged Trump with in comparison are probably the most trivial because of course Trump has also continued those violations," Hedges, who is now an author, said.
"There's a long litany of violations that have empowered the imperial presidency that the Democrats don't want to touch and that really worries me," he added.
Hedges went on to dismiss Trump's trial in the Senate as a "political farce," arguing that it "shows utter contempt for the rule of law."

If there is a hard border, it is EU that did it, not the UK. The UK has existing treaties with the Republic on that topic, which remain in effect. The re-institution of a hard border would just be a punishment tactic by the EU.

It's barely even being reported on as news in Britain.
For the past three years, every idiiotic and trivial protest, vote or parliamentary maneuver that gave the Remainers even the slightest bit of hope was given the STOP THE PRESSES treatment.
But now fianlly that some actual moment of substance has occurred -- the crushing and final irrevocable destruction of the Remain movement and the ultimate triumph of Brexit -- it's barely even being mentioned in the British press (at least the online versions).

__________________________
It took a while to get the right team together, but Lighthizer, Ross, Navarro, Scalia, etc are firing on all cylinders. But, I think the amazing thing to watch is how they leverage certain deals to secure better deals down the road. Anyone who doesn't think China didn't have pressure to work something out once we did a primary deal with Japan is smoking something. It made it necessary to tie down loose ends in the Eastern Rim. That was all preceded by pulling out of the previous Pacific Rim deal. Now we are doing individual deals with that membership.
The big thing is, however, North Korea. China will need to fill the trade void and North Korea is an untapped potential market. When all the dust settles, I wouldn't be surprised to see N. Korea enter the 21st Century and become an eventual mass market for Chinese goods.

Trump signs a trade deal with N Korea opening up markets.
Don't laugh. He sold rice to the Chinese.

There is no way they won't fold when they need to deal with the second largest economy in Europe. Especially when they all have to present a EU-nified front in negotiations.
If Boris has a deal with the US in his back pocket when he goes to Brussels, this will be a cakewalk for him.

Yes, there's a pressure gauge right on the 1 gallon pressure tank. This system has an electronic control mounted on the wall with a button that adjusts the pressure up or down in 10psi increments. There is a digital display that shows when the pump is spooling up or down to maintain the set pressure.

This new Grundfos system uses a variable speed pump to spin just as fast as it needs to keep the pressure at whatever is set on the control unit. As it reaches pressure, the motor slows down and eventually stops when not needed.

FL felon's right to vote is still being litigated. The State is claiming that all fines/costs must be paid prior to retention of voting rights. Who knows when it will finally be determined? Appears there were lots of felons who still owed fines.
