  1. Let's be honest, anyone could have guessed that May would sabotage Brexit. It's not Brexit that's the problem, it's the political establishment which does not want the UK to leave the EU. Especially when they're being paid well by billionaires to overturn the largest political mandate in this countries' history. The outcome of this will be low trust in politicians, riots, division, ethnic conflict, the rise of the far-right and the end of the Conservative Party. Buckle up Brits, we're in for a bumpy ride. Check out the key points: Goods passing into GB (Great Britain) from NI (Northern Ireland) will be subject to a declaration process. Compliance with these requirements in GB will not be subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission to the CJEU. The implications of NI remaining in the EU Single Market for Goods, while GB is not, is that for regulatory purposes GB is essentially treated as a third country by NI for goods passing from GB into NI. This means regulatory checks would have to take place between NI and GB, normally at airports or ports, although the EU now accepts that many of these could be conducted away from the border. Great Britain will no longer be a member of the EU Single Market for Goods or the EU’s customs arrangements. This means any GB goods crossing the border into the EU will be subject to the third country checks by Member State authorities to ensure these goods meet EU standards. Despite statements in the Protocol that it is not intended to be permanent, and the clear intention of the parties that it should be replaced by alternative, permanent arrangements, in international law the Protocol would endure indefinitely until a superseding agreement took its place, in whole or in part, as set out therein. There is a legal risk that the UK could become stuck in "protracted and repeating rounds of negotiations".
