The audacity to basically say: "We'll overwrite whatever things we don't like" is exactly why the EU is rightfully pushing strongly on getting a system of governance in place, with clear consequences.
I honestly still can't believe it, how deep the UK's prestige has dropped.
"I honestly still can't believe it, how deep the UK's prestige has dropped." this reminds me of a little quote:
When a British captive officer taunted Robert Surcouf with the words "You French fight for money while we fight for honour", Surcouf replied "Each of us fights for what he lacks most".
It is sad to see what big parts of England are reduced to. Imagine being dragged through the mud (Scotland, NI, Wales) by these people.
@@ruinerblodsinn6648 Wales voted strongly for brexit
Hahaha, the EU has no right to hold a country that isn't a member accountable for breaking their rules, you do realize how insane what you just said is right ?
@@ruinerblodsinn6648 😂 so hard oh boyy...
@@OdditiesandRarities I guess they thought that they were part in any decisions, once Brexit was done and all the promises were kept.
Oh wait, sharing power and listening to devolved administrations is not a high priority these days.
"The EU added additional demands"
Somehow, I really doubt that after four years of negotiations, all 27 EU nations would agree to throwing their old negotiation stance in the the bin. So far, during these four years no single EU member state has voiced any objections to what the EU is demanding, so I really doubt that there has been ANY change in the EU's negotiating stance. It is also interesting that the British government failes to name even a single one of these "EU's new demands". Probably has something to do with the fact that they don't exist.
I think it highly likely that what actually happened was the British team decided to proceed on the basis of some assumptions regarding (for example) how France might respond to fishing rights proposals, and were then disabused of the notion in clear language. Thus, "they might not require x, y, z" became "WE WILL ABSOLUTELY REQUIRE X, Y, Z, WTF????" got spun as a "new" demand. Actually, it was a default position that Britain hoped nobody was going to enforce.
Exactly. Brits are falling for Bojo’s fairy tale
do all state members need to agree on it? the eu is not known for being democratic, they are known for giving germany and france more power
@@floristhijssen5319 there are quite a few things that require unanimous agreement by all member states
@@floristhijssen5319 every single piece of legislation, every single trade agreement, every single added member state, has to be accepted by every member nation. It has always been like this. EU is a federation of sovereign nations - it's not "another, stronger nation bullying lesser nations". That's just a convenient narrative governments like UK like to push to divert criticism.

Hi, a fan here. A small critique: those "new demands" done by the EU side are not new, they'd always been there. The fact that the UK side had been ignoring them till now is a different thing. It should be pointed out in this video.
Yeah, it seems more like another case of the UK negotiators pushing ahead on the assumption that the EU negotiators were bluffing and then being shocked to find that no, they weren't.
Yes that‘s true. That‘s again a typical lie from the Tories under Johnson. He added new things not the EU
The U.K. government is preparing to blame the EU if negotiations fail. This has to be the most pathetic negotiation strategy in modern history.
It is the most pathetic political class in the Western world, no doubt. Incompetence of the highest order. Blaming others for their catastrophic failures is what they do for a living.
@Moby Pancake To be fair: It was maniacal to begin with that the UK thought they'd have equal negotiation strength.
Just the mere thought the EU needs the UK more than the other way around was so stupendous one has to wonder how you can come up with that...
I mean just look at the history on how the UK entered the EU in the first place.
And now look at the UK:
- It's gaining a reputation to break international law just after getting independent.
- The only deal worth naming they got is with japan on the other side of the world.
- Even the USA is not so keen on the UK government with Biden upcoming.
- And the EU - that gigantic single market next door - is getting so extremely annoyed with the UK that as mentioned in the video it's not unlikely that in a case of a no deal with international law being broken by the UK relationships will be very frosty in the upcoming time. Making a new deal with worse conditions possibly much more difficult.
@@zerto111 because the EU never broke international law lol
@@jpw6893 please elaborate with facts
@@tsbs7s oh...ok....
The EU have broken international law before, like almost every country in the world. You could try actually looking it up (if you can be bothered).
The only reason the talks are continuing is because neither side wants to look like the side that pulled out of the talks first.
As a euro, I have to agree. Neither side is looking great
that's what I think too, it's easy to just say "what ever" online or to someone in the street, but when you have the whole media watching you and your political career at play it's not that easy, even though you both want to do it, you know damn well the other side, and the part of your side that is looking for any kind of issue with you is going to use it against you.
"EU stops negotiation, wanted unfair rules against the UK... is the EU fascist?"
"Boris stops the negotiation, the UK economy is suffering, here are the top 10 lies the Tories told us to get us to leave"
Either way one of the two are going to look like a massive idiot by the end of the year.
I mean, that's reasonable. It doesn't really cost the EU anything to keep sending negotiators, so why not?
commentator on last day: "...and with seconds to go, the discussions continue, each side fighting over who will hang up the phone first!"
boris: "come up, hang up now, it's 6am!"
eu: "you hang up, you started this!"
@random guy with asian chick as profile picture I think that's why they voted leave! there's never tea at those late night meatings.

Those "fishing agreements" would pretty much be what the EU offered almost 4 years ago in Spring 2017 and exactly what the UK government did not want at all back then. I am very surprised.
I'm not.
Switserland and the EU had several years (1994 - 1999) of negotiations.
Eventually Switserland agreed to almost the exact deal the EU proposed at the beginning of the negotiations.
The UK will be forced to do the same.
@@Robbedem most likely. The EU has the leverage.

@@flappetyflippers Do you mean in the same vein that Trump suggested people should ingest bleach?
The irony is that the UK has been breaking EU treaties in many ways for decades, besides the negotiated optouts and getting away with it. With the internal market bill though they made it impossible to overlook intentionally or otherwise.
They’re not just ‘cheeky’ they’re illegal. That was admitted in Parliament by the government itself personified by MP Brandon Lewis - let’s call it what it is BREAKING THE LAW
and of course the Eu dont break laws or bend treaties that suit them

It is nothing like that, it would more similar to a child standing up to a bully who regularly breaks the rules by saying we 'WILL' break the rules but only if they continue bully them.
These laws in the WA are not broken and even after the internal market bill is passed, it does not break the laws.
its a loaded gun but inside a safe and wont be used till needed.
One of Brexit's most immediate cost is its debilitating effect on the mental health of anyone trying to make sense of it.

Johnson: Let's break the law first!
We will have the better deal later.
Yeah, partners usually tend to be more amenable to a deal if you break an agreement first... -.-

I mean look at Turkey and the lack of a response from the EU. "International law" isn't as powerful as some believe it to be
@@doodlebug4360 Yes, EU has some "interesting" neighbors: Turkey, Belarus, Libya, UK
@@peterebel7899 and their responses have been toothless for the most part
Yes, My Precious, they're talking about Fishes again!
If Johnson is negotiating in the dark, what chance have the rest of us knowing what's going on?
Well the EU's red lines are well known for years now. Any deal will respect these conditions because we, in the EU, have a two level (at least) validation process. The EU Commission negotiates with a mandate given by the 27 EU member states and work hard enough to stay within the mandate.
But even if the negotiating team accepts a little bit of what should not be in the deal, the 27 member states will have to validate or not the deal. As they are sovereign and independent, each and every one will have to agree to the terms of the deal.
So, in order to get what it wants, the British government has to convince not only the EU Commission but also the 27 member states. With the current level of trust that we have, this is very unlikely.
Huh, you make it sound like a comprehensive trade deal must either completely respect those red lines, thus conceding to the EU's core demands. Or take well over a year as any give on those core demands needs to be discussed at length by the individual members of the largest trading block on earth.
If only this had been widely known and knowable back when the UK elected a national embarassment on the strength of his promise to be able to do the impossible.
@@Jermbot15 We've been telling this to our british friends, partners, allies and neighbors for the better parts of the past four years.
@@Jermbot15 Kinda begs the question, what has the UK been doing all those years? After all this process of creating a comprehensive trade deal didn't start just a year ago.
@@cindermoth3421 Well, during Theresa May's years, the UK negotiated a comprehensive backstop that would essentially put a pause on the separation of the UK from the common market until such a time that a comprehensive trade deal could be reached that included a technological solution to the issue of the Irish border. That was essentially 3 years to cobble together a temporary arrangement that would hold until something permanent could be put together.
The last year and change has either been Johnson's government trying to put together that permanent arrangement with less than half the available time and frankly a third of the available expertise. Or, if you're a cynic, Boris Johnson pretending to negotiate while preparing to blame someone else when the car goes over the cliff.
@@Jermbot15 In the end, this just al seems like such a mess, doesn't it? Suppose that's the one thing almost everyone can agree on.
Finance bill and Internal market bill infringement are plain enough for the full no-deal. As EU citizen, not from france, that would be wrong for the internal eu market. UK needs to wake up.
9:02 Yes, generally speaking *BREAKING A PREVIOUS AGREEMENT AND INTERNATION LAW* is a bad start to signing a international treat - with the guys you just broke a treaty with.
Are you gonna ever make a TLDR News Africa? I would be very interested in seeing news about Africa, rarely is the continent covered as almost no mainstream media’s care that much 👀
Probably not a TLDR Africa, at least not for now but we are definitely planning on stepping up our international coverage... keep your eyes peeled for more! - Jack
@@TLDRnews yes I would prefer international news also within the EU news part. That would be awesome.
Al Jazeera covers Africa quite a bit.
@@syedmohsin18 true, I occasionally watch them. However, just like any news agency, they too have an agenda. Not a too bad one, for sure, so not much of a problem.
But TLDR News seems to have NO political agenda. I prefer them over any other news. (Except for daily news obviously).
@@syedmohsin18 I was just about to say that, literally never heard about news from Africa before starting watching them a little over a year ago, there's a Stream episode today about what's happening in Uganda if you're interested Kalxvon (and BBC Africa)
So the Uk is blaming all the entirety of the Eu cause of the terms we have agreed over 4 years and calling them new terms and unfair huh.
its not the terms but the interpretation of those terms that is the issue.
They had 3.5 years to negotiate! Period
Just signed a tender with a UK company after putting months and months of work in. Worth a lot of money to my small business and my supplier (whom Ive dealt successfully with for years). Neither ourselves nor our UK suppliers know how the supply is going to be affected with no deal. I think most businesses just assume the politicians will sort something out. There will be absolute fury when a no deal puts people out of business. You will see actual social unrest I believe.
Good luck. It has pretty high chance to go south next year.

I'm a foreigner here and I'm confused by one thing in particular:
Boris Johnson has been pushing for a total end to the UK's relationship with the EU since, what, the 1980's? Basically, he has been in favor of what is now being called a "hard Brexit" for as long as I've been alive. With all of that in mind, why did anyone believe him when he suddenly said he actually wanted a deal? Why would anyone believe he's seriously been trying to get one, instead of just running out the clock? Am I missing something?
"Cheeky clauses", more like "iternational law breaches"
Crime?
And that's part of the problem isn't it? That large parts of the media including this channel fail to recognise the gravity of the situation and think it's all a bit of a joke.
The UK has every right to be able to manage its internal matters, international law on treaties be damned. The international law is the problem not the management of internal matters in the UK.
@@Phil_AKA_ThundyUK
Nobody wants to trust a law breaker like UK:/
@@jeckjeck3119 I know but what choice do they have? The WA is forcing the UK to pass laws to protect itself from abuse by the EU. Yes, the UK legislators should never have agreed to a treaty that puts the UK in that position but that is now where they find themselves.
The EU has before ignored its own treaties and has broken international law many times but since no one cared at the time it didn't make headlines. It's just a bargaining chip tbh.
The UK has a long history of being a fair and law abiding nation, the fact they're being FORCED to do this will provide the correct lens to view this through if it happens.

Isn't it a bit "weird" to blame the EU for the failing negotiations when you declare in the news that you are planning to break international law, even if there is a deal?
I really like these videos, but almost every single one that I watch has a typo or several typos in them, which undermines what is otherwise excellent journalism
Typos? I don’t belive you.
Typos I can live with, but with the english bias I would not call this good journalism.
It’s deliberate. It’s so we comment and show engagement with the video. And it works! Look at me commenting and engaging!
It's been certain No Deal for a long time already. There's no way a Deal would be implemented in time for New Year even all the way back in November. So the UK has basically exited with No Deal.
The negotiation now is basically the same as the current negotiation between Australia and EU: negotiation for a new trade deal, not an exit deal. There is no deadline on this. The UK can take 1 year or 10 year negotiating this, just that whether the country still holds together for all that time or not.
That's a very interesting perspective on where this is potentially / ultimately going to go. Whatever happens at the ports and borders next year will focus both sides to the true reality of their negotiating positions and can then make a tailored deal based on reality and not nostalgia/pride/assumptions/dreams etc.
God bless you guys, thank you!

Its absolutely batshit bananas how this process is playing out. And that you're one of the few news organisations covering Brexit in real time and giving a layman's explanation.
The Executive Summary for this video: Prepare for no-deal on Jan 1, but of course there will be ongoing negotiations on a trade deal between the EU and the UK sometime in the distant future. The key piece of evidence is the word "yes" at 7:43 into this video.

If they reinstate the offending clauses in the Internal Markets Bill there will not be any chance of a deal. The withdrawal agreement is now international law. Those clauses break the law and jeopardise peace in Northern Ireland. Why would anyone continue to try to make a deal with a partner that doesn't respect the terms of another deal they made less than a year ago? That would be a waste of time. If this happens, not only will there be no deal, but there will definitely be a court case and there is a high probability of sanctions being imposed on the UK by the international community.

Hi, I really like you channels. That said, I have wondered if Black Wednesday is responsible for Brexit?
Let me explain it: Boris Johnson wants a Canada-deal or a Australian-deal.
It is that simple.
And Macron will give that a veto.
If both a lot happened and nothing happened, then nothing happened. That’s the direction of entropy in negotiations. The transition period will be extended. Perhaps some bare bones agreement that’s preferable to no deal for both sides will be reached, thereby ‘justifying’ an extension to arrive at a more comprehensive deal.
There is still the possibility of a post-brexit deal
Seems like UK fishing industry will need significant investment to meet demand from Europe (aka France/Spain). Will be interesting to see a resurgence of national interest infrastructure spending.
Using famous quote: "So long and thanks for all the fish!"
Last minute demands from the EU = the same demands made since 2016: level playing field provisions.
Remember before the referendum, there was no mention of a "no-deal brexit"? The main uncertainty was whether it would be a "hard" or "soft" brexit, both options implying some sort of deal. Then the notion of a soft brexit went out the window as soon as the referendum was over.
The ironic thing is, we could have gotten a deal done years ago if we'd opted for a soft brexit, ie. membership of the customs union and single market, like Norway has. There would be no disruption to trade, no change to the Irish border, no border around Kent, and Brits with holiday homes in the EU would still be able to visit whenever and for as long as they like.
"So long, and thanks for all the fish"
A no deal scenario is not the end. With CANZUK gaining momentum (Canada, Australia, New Zealand & UK) the free trade and free movement proposal could be very beneficial for all!
Please make a video that explain the economic impact of a no deal on the EU and UK. As far as I know, around 3% of the EU27 GDP with be affected. It should affect at least +45% of the UK GDP. If this is true, then the mouse just roared at the Lion.
- Are you willing to break the law?
- Yes
This is what I take from the video hehe.
Sorry for this to happen like it is happening. I did think there was going to be a deal after the withdrawal agreement was signed and the transition period started. I guess the focus shifted during corona. Would love to see Latinamerica TLDR :)
They chose to leave: then leave the EU, deal or no deal
oven ready but the oven isn't working apparently
I mean, raw chicken is technically "oven-ready"...
Well, in short few weeks the hindsight's going to be 2021.
Boris Johnson's government thinks nothing of glossing over the actual time needed to read important proposals. That says a lot about him.
Breaking international law is regarded as “cheeky”. Must be a part of British English I don’t understand.
I don’t know why the EU is still even negotiating with the UK, when the British government has already shown that they do not intend to uphold anything that’s agreed. I say the EU should just close this whole thing down and tell the UK to come back once they have a government that take things more seriously.
@A D He nerver said that. He obviously revered to the english language. British English as opposed to American English.
@A D Even among the English, you must be one of the stupidest ones around. I was obviously referring to British English, as in the dialect of English spoken in Britain.
The salt content in that last bit at 9:52 could kill the world's population of snails
No agreement on fishery either. It was refuted:
EU Chief Brexit Negotiator Barnier has told EU ambassadors that there has been no breakthrough on the fisheries question, and that reports to that effect were “completely untrue”, RTE's Connelly .
Further, BBC's Searle adds "Govt sources say it hadn’t even been discussed when briefed and that EU sources were ‘literally making it up’.
While I understand that the EU would have to make concessions on the fishery, I really do not see how it would be able to make any concessions on the levelled play field. It seems clear, that the UK does not wish to have an agreement achieved. And I would love to see the EU to just recognising this. The only concern we all should have is about Northern Ireland. If a hard border was erected, it would have a massive impact on the stability in this area. This is a real question of peace or a return to terror and civil warfare.
Q: Why would the EU to make a trade agreement, if the UK is just going to make laws to disregard the part they don’t like?
the eu want a supra national organisation (like the european court of justice which is not in the eu) to enforce the agrement
imagine UK not leaving after promising to leave
