Someone’s updated the side of that Brexit bus
The Brexit negotiations have been going so well that the UK has offered to pay a divorce bill of up to 50bn euros (£44bn) according to reports today.
Never let it be said that David Davis isn’t an expert negotiator.
Here’s the only 7 tweets you need to read about it.

We’re paying tens of billions of pounds to leave the world’s largest free trade area while surrendering all of our ability to define its rights & regulations.
All so that we can hopefully start negotiating an inferior arrangement with the world’s largest free trade area.— James O'Brien (@mrjamesob) November 29, 2017

Summary of Conservative EU divorce bill negotiations:
“We won’t pay”
“It’s nonsense that we’ll pay”
“It’s unfair that we’d have to pay”

To summarise negotiations so far:
EU: €50 billion seems fair
UK (who has the stronger hand): €20bn.
EU: No
UK (over the course of 6 fucking months):
Fine we don’t even… we don’t even need a deal! Fuck you, no money we don’t need you! ok 50 billion.— James Felton (@JimMFelton) November 29, 2017

Britain and the EU agree to a divorce bill. The Gov would print it on the side of a bus but they can't afford to buy the decals. Or the bus. Or roads to run the bus on.
