I haven't suggested you would, in fact I'm contrasting what I believe and certainly hope you would do v what Johnson has done here. I would not expect you to support it.
Right so what's the solution? Mine would be stop trying to manage the media and start negotiating in better faith, face down a few of the extremist ERG and find a way out of the ridiculous red lines over SM/CU alignment - of all the concerns with EU membership, commonality of standards and rules would have been the least controversial. The moronic insistence of symbolic divergence is damaging more than just the NIP.
What's wrong with equivalence, provided that it is properly overseen? The EC insists that the only option is 'dynamic alignment', which basically places the UK straight under ECJ jurisdiction now and in the future. That's straight back to 'vasselage'. Its a non-starter.
Do you think that the EU is absolutely beyond the pale over this question?
