UK plan to register EU citizens would be illegal, say MEPs

The home secretary, Amber Rudd, has been warned by a cross-party group of MEPs that her plans to force EU nationals to add their names to a register in the transition period immediately after Brexit would be illegal and unacceptable to the European parliament.

The MEPs from across Europe have written to Rudd following her suggestions to the home affairs committee that she would expect EU nationals to have to register with the authorities in the period immediately after Britain left the EU. Brussels is planning to insist that a transition period after the UK leaves in March 2019 would involve Britain remaining under EU law and all its institutions, without exception.

Brexit Negotiations: Not without pain

[..]

Earlier this week, May and Juncker met again for dinner, this time in Brussels. But now everything was quite different. May did not talk herself up, she begged for help. She talked about the risk she had recently put herself at when she gave up the hard Brexit course, asking the EU for a transitional period of two years, in which everything is going to remain the same. She reminded him that she had moved on the delicate issue of finances. And she told him that, at home, friends and enemies are breathing down her neck, waiting for her to fall. She had no room for manoeuvre, said May — so the Europeans would have to make it for her.

Theresa May seemed anxious to the President of the Commission, despondent and discouraged. A woman who hardly dares trust anybody, but is not ready for an act of liberation either. May’s facial expressions and appearance spoke volumes — that’s how Juncker later described it to his colleagues. Everyone can see it: the Prime Minister is drawn from the struggle within her own party. She has deep circles under her eyes. She looks like someone who does not sleep for nights on end. She rarely laughs, though clearly, she has to for the photographers. But it looks forced. Previously, May could literally pour out laughter — her whole body shaking. Now she has to use her utmost strength to avoid losing her composure.

May asked Juncker for the appointment at the last minute. She had telephoned Chancellor Merkel and French President Macron beforehand too. This is commonly called a “charm offensive,” but that didn’t apply here. They were calls for help. May knew that the EU heads of state and government were not ready to proclaim “sufficient progress” in the negotiations at the end of the week. This blocked the way to the second phase of the negotiations, where the future relationship would be discussed. The Prime Minister wanted at least to pave the way for a move: could the EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier not be given a mandate talks about the transitional phase that she had asked for?

Turk ziet het zelfs nog wel gebeuren dat de Britten in de EU blijven. Lijkt me stug maar wie weet...

Earlier, Davis had told the Brexit select committee that he believed the EU would only finalise the deal at the last possible moment. “It’s no secret that the way the union makes its decisions tends to be at the 59th minute of the 11th hour of the last day. That’s precisely what I would expect to happen here. I am quite sure in my mind that we can do that,” he said.

“If there is a time limit on a negotiation the union stops the clock, it assumes it is still at 11.59 and it carries on until the deal is concluded, sometimes for 24, 36, 48 hours. That what I imagine will happen here.It will be a lot of pressure, very high stress, very exciting for everybody watching. But that will be what happens.”

quote:

So we need to shift our economy towards a more export-led growth strategy, based on higher productivity employment. Fortunately, this will prove eminently possible as a part of a Brexit-based economic strategy. Indeed, far from being the risky option that many have claimed, Brexit gives us many tools to deal with the very serious economic challenges that the country will face in the coming decades.

quote:

So be under no doubt: we can do deals with our trading partners, and we can do them quickly. I would expect the new Prime Minister on September 9th to immediately trigger a large round of global trade deals with all our most favoured trade partners. I would expect that the negotiation phase of most of them to be concluded within between 12 and 24 months.

WTF?? Die Davis is niet goed wijs.

Daarbij geeft Davis aan dat het parlement niet kan stemmen over de final deal om even later weer tegengesproken te worden door May. Wat is dit voor gare boel?

Het is wel lollig om te lezen wat Davis allemaal uitkraamde zo'n 1,5 jaar geleden:

Investeringen lopen terug, productiviteit is nog steeds belabberd en welke tools geeft Brexit nou om echt economisch geweldig te worden

Voor de rest is het een lang rammelend betoog met veel vaagheden. Wat een fuckup.
