Just as there was talk that a deal was in the pipeline, EU27 ambassadors have told the EU Commission that they would need to scrutinise any deal prior to them agreeing to it.
This has thrown a king-sized spanner into the timetable and left Olly Robbins scurrying over to Brussels tomorrow to help find a way through.
Up until now of course we’ve all been told that the EU27 were united behind Barnier to get a good deal and they were all as one.
Well, now that a deal is staring them in the face and they don’t quite know all the details, individual member states are getting twitched that this may work for the EU27 as a whole as far as the EU Commission is concerned, but maybe not for their country and its people as an individual nation state.
The EU Commission deputy to Michel Barnier, Sabine Weyard, has been told by representatives of the EU27, including France and Germany, that they need 72 hours to go over the text and that they would not just rubber stamp it.
They are also concerned that the UK will be given some sort of freebie by not having to sign up to all the freedoms and not having to open up our fishing waters to EU27 all-comers etc.
And things have not been helped by this so-called ’tunnel’ procedure that has now been entered, where nation states have very limited access.
Now, under Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, the agreement “…shall be concluded on behalf of the Union by the Council, acting by a qualified majority, after obtaining the consent of the European Parliament.”
So if the EU parliament votes it through, then the EU Council..
