Some argue that the PM was willing to be flexible to get a deal last October (by agreeing to create a border in the Irish Sea). But that was because it was the only way of leaving the EU (because of the Benn-Burt Act) not a fear of no deal. No such constraint now. — PolitiTweet.org

A deal is still possible but the risk of no deal is high and has been consistently under-estimated by most commentators. At no point has the Govt ever accepted what is necessary to reach an agreement. — PolitiTweet.org

At some point, the Government is going to have to take some tough decisions in order to make the public finances sustainable. Abandoning the pensions triple lock (which, left unreformed, would have perverse consequences), is a relatively easy option. Really can’t be ducked. — PolitiTweet.org
