This is so British politics. Don't solve all of the fundamental problems of Brexit, just fix the minor one that people will have a direct experience of.

Are you aware that there's been a tonne of negotiation going on between the UK and EU and there's a big summit tomorrow to announce a comprehensive reset of the relationship and that this is just one aspect of it that has leaked?

If not you could read the article which talks about that.

Downing Street said on Saturday that it was poised to strike a deal with the EU that would improve things for Britons facing “queues on holiday”.

Given that leak is actually the govs official statement.

It is reasonable to assume the gov has little else to sell this deal as a positive.

Probably. Likely to cater to the older generation of technophobes.

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
