Brexit.

"Solutions nearly always come from the direction you least expect, which means there's no point trying to look in that direction because it won't be coming from there."

On top of that, a blue passport was possible all the time while the UK was an EU member.

They will be rolling again (partly) tomorrow Wednesday 12-23.
A nice rehearsal for a possible no deal though.

The NHS asks BoJo for an extension of one month in order to be able to fight the pandemic first.

NHS leaders demand Brexit extension to avoid healthcare chaos

Faced with an alarming rise in Covid-19 infections, they say that a month delay will take the NHS out of 'the immediate danger zone, and it will enable the NHS to continue to focus on fighting the pandemic'

Brexit trade and security deal with EU within 'touching distance', says No 10

Boris Johnson briefs cabinet on breakthrough and is expected to address nation early on Christmas Eve

www.theguardian.com

EU states are readying themselves for the possibility of a deal being struck within the next few hours, by pencilling in a Christmas Eve meeting to start the ratification process.

Yay!!

A vote by the European parliament to give consent to a trade and security agreement with the UK is no longer possible, given the lack of time left before the end of the transition period. The UK exits the single market and customs union in eight days’ time.

The capitals will instead have to agree to “provisional application” of the deal on 1 January, with MEPs having their vote later in the month. The process can still take up to a week, given the need for the treaty to be translated and scrutinised by the 27 governments.

The European commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, is understood to have been in constant contact with Boris Johnson in the last 72 hours, as she has sought to strike a compromise satisfactory to Downing Street and the member states. Another call is believed to be scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

Will it be possible to get for once a deal with the UK when there is still time left on the ticker?

 

[Veritable Quandry]

BoJo still has to get it thru Parliament.

 

[Sid]

Both sides have to see that agreement trough parliaments early next year.
But it starts with an agreement between the negotiators.
All sides will ihave to agree to a “provisional application” of the deal on 1 January.

It's still only a 'possible deal' - don't count your chickens etc...

From what I've read, though, it's just the details on fishing quotas and stuff they're still haggling over. Neither side is going to let things break down over that, not at this point.

The amount they're worrying about is but a fraction of what the UK has wasted on test and trace that doesn't work or PPE that doesn't fit or ferries that don't exist to deliver pizzas that don't exist either.

or ferries that don't exist to deliver pizzas that don't exist either.

Things are quite different over there! Pizza delivery on ferries. No 30 minute guarantees probably.
