This is like having a conversation with me.

Famous last words?

This section is literally several pages long but it basically boils down to "You're not allowed to change anything about the border ever"

Dedicated committees on the Northern Ireland problem, the Cyprus problem and the Gibraltar problem.

The UK shall remain part of the European Development Fund until the current round of work is complete; so if the EDF is currently breathing new life into your run down post-industrial town, the EU's got your back.

I don't know if those brackets are significant, but this kinda implies that the transition period could last all the way up to 2099.

31st December 2020.

The ECJ can still rule on anything that happens up to four years after leaving the EU.

Leaving the EU means having to deal with our own nuclear waste.

Interestingly this and related articles seem to state that ANY nuclear material on British territory becomes property of the UK.

Article for the infosec nerds to pore over.

The UK has to pay for any extra admin that customs procedures incur.

I don't know enough legalese to parse this; but it sounds like the UK is going to remain a member of the European Medicines Agency for the length of the transition period too?

PS. This also applies to Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.

If you have lived in Britain or an EU member state for five or more years, you will be allowed to reside there permanently.

You only lose this right if you then move elsewhere for five or more years.

Citizens will lose their right to change residency between states, however travel is still permitted and still visa-free.

Some (seemingly) good news for EU nationals living in Britain and British migrants living abroad: The draft agreement grants the same residency rights as you currently have.

The fact that there's someone out there right now whose current role is "Chef du Train" is somehow making me giggly.

Ralsei is just my fursona in a wizard hat. Change my mind. https://awoo.space/media/aGAFvGFQP4BZMdgpR0w
