'I think what the UK had to get across, and I think it's now finally succeeded in getting this across, is that it's not going to cave in, in the way that it has done in the past.' Shanker Singham told @CommonsFREU
#Brexit Select Committee session today on operation of UK/EU border after transition. Evidence @RHARichardB, Dr Anna Jerzewska & Robert Hardy gave to MPs - as it happened: bit.ly/35kJ948 @CommonsFREU
I do hope so. Surely the EU will not totally abandon the growing millions of British people that desperately want to retain our EU citizenship?

The New European - Think Without Borders
'There are two interpretations - there's a European interpretation of the Protocol and there's the UK interpretation, and they're not always the same, particularly in the at risk/not at risk area.' Shanker Singham told @CommonsFREU
David Frost @CommonsFREU Michael Gove Keep up the good work. No extension to the transition period.

Ted Smith 🇪🇺 Guy Verhofstadt Ursula von der Leyen EU Council European Commission @CommonsFREU The New European - Think Without Borders I’d pay 39p a day to become an EU citizen that’s for sure.
6/ Simon Usherwood makes a very good case for why a committee/body like @CommonsFREU would be very useful in providing scrutiny to the TCA and it's implementation.
Unfortunately @CommonsFREU is being made defunct by the govt.
Hilary Benn
A real treat for this week’s #TradeTuesday as we published Episode 10 of our podcast ' #TradeTalks ’ with Hilary Benn, former Chair of the @CommonsFREU. Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/1s7om4…
Highly recommended read from @CommonsFREU chaired by Hilary Benn. Really useful insights on complexities of UK-EU Trade and Coop Deal from Catherine Barnard Sam Lowe and Raoul Ruparel - including how stable or not the #TCA is at p31-32.
Quotes from @CommonsFREU which is being attended by Elizabeth de Jong, Director of Policy Logistics UK.

Roasting piece by Simon Nixon, which uses evidence from @CommonsFREU session yesterday. The two together deserve to spark further debate.
@wg_CounselGen Michael Russell @CommonsFREU Welsh Parliament The Scots, Welsh and Irish parliaments need to all act as one moaning about it will achieve nothing
@CommonsFREU Hilary Benn Boris Johnson Liaison Committee Really important to get clarity on this issue.
@CommonsFREU David Pocklington Hilary Benn Boris Johnson Liaison Committee Well done. I hope that (if the PM replies or not) you will be able to raise this with the Speaker. It is surely still unacceptable for anyone to lie to the HoC and that includes its committees. He must make a statement and apologise (what else could be done now is hard to see).
