This evening the government has halted it's no deal preparations.To date it has spent around £2 billion (that is £30 per person) of your money on something that is not going to happen.https://twitter.com/lewis_goodall
Can someone with a better understanding explain what the ramifications of the EU saying they will not renegotiate the WA, does this mean that if parliament is unhappy with aspects of it they have to accept them or reject it holus-bolus?Can parliament debate the WA without the cooperation of the tories?

Neither are the mirror..... the printed press being biased is not news.
it would depend if they were interested in politics or not I suppose, many people buy papers and skip the political stuff and go straight to things of interest, same goes for other subjects of course
The National Institute of Economic & Social Research the first 2 paras are taken from the full article (see link)''On this basis, we estimate that in the long run the UK economy would be 3½ per cent smaller under the new deal compared to continued EU membership''''Despite the name, trade typically does not move ‘freely’ under FTAs and UK businesses will experience many more frictions in trading with the EU than they do now. These frictions include non-tariff barriers such as customs and rules of origin requirements, regulatory burdens and barriers to market entry such as the loss of passporting in financial services''''On 17 October 2019, the UK government and its EU counterparts concluded a renegotiation of the previous withdrawal agreement and political declaration which sets out the framework for their future relationship. The government hoped that this would enable the UK to leave the EU on 31 October 2019 and then, after a transition period lasting to the end of 2020, trade with the EU under a free trade agreement (FTA) while negotiating new trading arrangements with other countries.This box sets out estimates of the economic effects of the deal on the basis that an FTA is in place at the beginning of 2021. On this basis, we estimate that in the long run the UK economy would be 3½ per cent smaller under the new deal compared to continued EU membership. The estimated effect is very uncertain. It is similar to our estimate of the deal proposed by Mrs May's government (Hantzsche, Kara and Young, 2018) because both involve an exit from the EU's single market and customs union. It is at the lower end of the range of estimates provided by UK in a Changing Europe (2019) in their analysis of Prime Minister Johnson's Brexit proposals. It is also somewhat smaller than the 4.9 per cent loss of GDP estimated in the government's published analysis of the effect of an average FTA (HM Government, 2018). The Chancellor has declined to update the government's analysis.1''https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/002795011925000104addedIt's likely you bst and Wilts and maybe others have already read and quoted from this
So one of the eu red lines is freedom of movement, labour will now abandon that and re negotiate migration rules within the eu, let’s see how they get on with that,andrew Marr asked corbyn 4 times if he personally wants to leave the eu and no reply! Why can’t he just be honest?
