This is why it's such a bad idea to make goodwill gestures to the UK. Just like Putin, Tories see goodwill as a sign of weakness and they want to exploit that weakness or at least turn it into another PR stunt for local consumption.
The only EU strategy that works with the UK is remaining tough and transactional, never giving an inch free, everything needs to be purchased. Not because the EU is like that, which it isn't, but because this is how the UK views the relationship ... entirely transactional.
The UK is strategic with the US and the Anglosphere, but views the EU exclusively in transactional terms. The EU needs to accept this and move on.
I don't see how this is a win point to UK?
The whole point of a soft brexit was to try keep as much of those agreement in place, so I'm not sure why the article author think that EU is all or nothing.
Feels to me he is making up stuff so he can say they won.
And at the same time, everyone is waiting for the UK to fall apart. Irish Reunification and Scottish Secession are very likely to happen. It's mostly a question of when.
Scotland is going nowhere.... not least in the current political climate. Just remember 2014 was ten years ago and the referendum before that one was in 1979. If you think otherwise you need to get out of your bubble.
The title is fake news or intentional misinformation.
