Prosperity UK was founded in 2017 with a vision of moving beyond the referendum & looking constructively at Britain’s future post our departure from the EU
Following the new agreement negotiated between the UK and the EU, the Alternative Arrangements Commission has now concluded its work. We hope it has been helpful to all parties and we thank those who participated. Our reports are archived on our website #thatsallfolks
Please see a link to our graphic sequence explaining how the NI-IE customs procedure could work after Brexit. Customs declaration is a virtual process, with goods pre-cleared electronically and crossing the border without checks - https://t.co/Co68bFMiHX
NEW Boris Johnson is to address a mass meeting of the 1922 committee of Conservative backbenchers at 7.30pm tomorrow night, sources have confirmed.
The PM will brief his Cabinet at 4pm.
All the political furniture is in place for a #Brexit deal - or a draft - to be unveiled.
New article by @ShankerASingham chairman of our technical panel. There is a landing ground for a deal, acceptable to all sides. Additionally, it is important to understand the difference between an electronic customs DECLARATION and a physical CHECK https://t.co/yAtLIaM8pN
Dear @MichelBarnier we briefed your team on our proposals based on existing processes and technologies, already either in use by the EU or elsewhere. We have drafted legal protocols to make #alternativearrangements legally operative. So what you are saying is not accurate
Barnier on UK customs plan: 'What we're being asked is to accept a system that hasn't been properly developed, hasn't been tested, there will be controls spread out across IE and it will largely be based on exemptions and derogations on technology that has yet to be developed.'
Please watch @ShankerASingham and Tony Smith of our technical panel give evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee. It is fair to say it went well, with all their questions given reassuring answers https://t.co/J6Ikpj4NZT
.@SuellaBraverman abd @GregHands write for the Telegraph: by pretending #alternativearrangements don't work anytime soon (we have proved they do) and that Northern Ireland has to be in the Customs Union ad finitum, Ireland isn't negotiating in good faith https://t.co/Zw8eICFcqh
I & 18 Labour colleagues have written to Jean Claude Junker & Donald Tusk urging the EU Commission, EU27 with the U.K. Goverment to work night and day to agree a deal. An orderly Brexit is better than a No Deal Brexit. The public are tied of deadlock and want #Brexit resolved.
Shanker Singham & Tony Smith, from the Alternative Arrangements Commission giving evidence to Commons Home Affairs Ctte this morning. The AAC have heavily influenced the PM's new plan for the border & Northern Ireland.
Despite barely being mentioned in the 2016 EU referendum, the Irish border has emerged as #Brexit’s biggest problem.
How can a new land border be enforced on the island of Ireland after years of bloody conflict ended in a fragile peace?
