Important point that even a deal involves much more red tape. One reason to be pessimistic about the UK’s willingness to get a deal is that the Govt would have to say simultaneously “we’ve got a fabulous deal, now businesses have to prepare for loads more red tape & disruption “. — PolitiTweet.org

Tweets 15-17 make a similar point to one I make here. The PM’s position on Covid restrictions is already upsetting many of his natural Brexiteer supporters. Will he dare upset them again by showing some pragmatism in the Brexit talks? https://t.co/fUscdMyD6y — PolitiTweet.org

@Sime0nStylites @Mij_Europe @BorisJohnson Agreed. A robust state aid regime is in the best interests of the UK taxpayer. (Don’t forget, Boris praised EU officials in the referendum campaign for what they’d done ‘in the fight against state aid’.) — PolitiTweet.org

The PM is already getting flak from the Tory right on Covid. To get a deal with the EU he’s going to have to make concessions that the Tory right won’t like either. (And on both fronts, he’d be acting against his own instincts, too). Not obvious he’ll do that. — PolitiTweet.org

It shows that being PM changes how anyone would think - when you’re the one responsible, you become more risk-averse. I think we know that BJ the columnist or backbencher would’ve taken a different view. — PolitiTweet.org

Boris Johnson’s natural instincts are libertarian. By tightening up the Covid restrictions this week (whether rightly or wrongly), he has acted against his own instincts & those of his natural supporters. It’s caused obvious disquiet on the backbenchers. https://t.co/fUscdMyD6y — PolitiTweet.org
