Farage Tells Huge Pack of Lies About Johnson's Brexit Deal
byMish
Nov 6, 2019 -edited
A debate rages over whether Johnson's deal with the EU actually delivers Brexit.
Yesterday, I commented "Nigel Farage says Johnson's deal is Not Brexit. I find that to be a joke."
A reader replied: "Farage made an interesting speech on Monday. He covered 10 points regarding why Johnson's deal is not Brexit."
The UK keeps state aid under the EU rules.
The UK keeps social policy under the EU rules.
The UK keeps regulatory policies under the EU rules.
The UK keeps environmental law under the EU rules.
The UK keeps employment policies under the EU rules.
The UK keeps taxation policies under the EU rules.
The UK keeps fisheries under the EU rules.
The UK is likely prohibited from negotiating trade deals with the rest of the world.
The UK pays 65 Billion for the privilege of all this.
Even if the UK agrees to all this in exchange for a Free Trade Deal, then the EU Court is the judge of any disagreements down the road.
In case you want official Brexit Party statements, please see If you only read one thing about Boris Johnson's deal,make it this.
The points are mostly the same but in a different order.
Differences Between Johnson's Deal and Theresa May's Deal
Bloomberg explains Differences Between Johnson's Deal and Theresa May's Deal.
This is the big one. Under Johnson's deal the U.K. will leave the EU's customs union, allowing it to strike its own trade deals with other countries. Under May's proposals the country would have stayed in — at least until it had reached a free trade agreement with the EU — preserving trade ties built up over its 46-year membership of the bloc and its predecessors.
Conclusion: Point 8 is a blatant lie.
Level Playing Field on EU Rules
Johnson wants to give himself greater room to diverge from EU rules on, for example, social and environmental standards — something that has already angered Keir Starmer, the opposition Labour Party's Brexit spokesman.
May's Deal: The future relationship must ensure open and fair competition. Provisions to ensure this should cover state aid, competition, social and employment standards, environmental standards, climate change, and relevant tax matters, building on the level playing field arrangements provided for in the Withdrawal Agreement and commensurate with the overall economic relationship.
Johnson's Deal: The precise nature of commitments should be commensurate with the scope and depth of the future relationship and the economic connectedness of the Parties.
The political statement says "The Parties should in particular maintain a robust and comprehensive framework for competition and state aid control that prevents undue distortion of trade and competition; commit to the principles of good governance in the area of taxation and to the curbing of harmful tax practices; and maintain environmental, social and employment standards at the current high levels provided by the existing common standards."
Bloomberg accurately points out "On the face of it, Johnson's deal commits the U.K. to a host of new safeguards and trade relationships. However, the political declaration is just that — a statement of intent rather than a binding commitment."
All that crap about trade, governance, taxation, etc., was removed from the binding Withdrawal Agreement to the non-binding political declaration.
Ironically, Labour is upset because it understands Johnson can indeed weaken employment standards, worker protections, etc.
Conclusion: Points 1 through 6 are a pack of lies.
Three Main Differences
The Journal comments on Three Main Differences Between Theresa May's Brexit Deal and Boris Johnson's
THE KEY DIFFERENCES between Theresa May's Withdrawal Agreement, and Boris Johnson's version of it are the alternative arrangement to the Irish backstop, a consent mechanism for the Northern Ireland Assembly, and the level-playing field provision.
The "level-playing field" provision was another sticking point for UK-EU negotiators. It essentially aimed to create a base level of standards for labour rights, the environment, tax and state aid rules.
This is so as to ensure state aid rules aren't used by either side to boost their own companies; labour rules aren't lowered in order to increase company profits; or environmental standards aren't renegned upon in order to become more competitive post-Brexit.
This had been a legally-binding agreement contained in the Withdrawal Agreement – it's now stated in the Political Declaration.
Reference to a customs union as the baseline for a future trade deal, and UK alignment with EU regulations have also been removed.
Same Conclusion: Points 1-6 are a huge pack of lies.
Frictionless Free Trade
From the Guardian article How is Boris Johnson's Brexit deal different from Theresa May's?
The commitment to frictionless trade between Northern Ireland and Great Britain is restated. "Nothing in the protocol prevents the UK from ensuring unfettered market access for goods moving from Northern Ireland to the rest of the UK's internal market".
The EU and the UK will aim for a zero-tariff deal with unlimited quotas. The entire UK, including Northern Ireland, will be free to sign trade deals.
The line in the political declaration that "the United Kingdom will consider aligning with union rules in relevant areas" in any future trade talks has been ditched.
One source said the removal of this albeit vague promise of being aligned to the EU in future has been the key to unlocking the support of the European Research Group.
The island of Ireland is considering a single market for electricity so homes in Northern Ireland can get their energy from a supplier in Northern Ireland or the republic. There were fears this could be disrupted by Brexit. Under the Johnson deal, the provisions of union law remain so nothing will change.
Point 8 is a blatant lie.
Fishing and financial services are details to be worked out later.
Point 7 is a lie.
Trapped by the European Court of Justice
The problems won't end with the transition period. Don't be fooled just because the Political Declaration on future relations is not legally binding. Article 184 of the Withdrawal Agreement requires us to use 'best endeavours, in good faith' to negotiate a future deal in line with the PD. Any breach of this duty will see the EU haul Britain before an arbitration panel – half EU appointees, half pro-EU judges from the UK. And the panel must defer to the European court on anything concerning EU Law. If they rule that a UK law goes against the Political Declaration, UK courts will have to overturn that law (WA, Articles 170-175). The Political Declaration is a trap from which there is no plausible escape.
That is the concluding paragraph of the official Brexit Party statement.
Let's tune into the Independent for analysis.
EU law will apply in the transition period
After we leave the EU, we will go into limbo, known in the bill as the implementation period (IP), although everyone calls it the transition period, which lasts until December 2020.
During this period nothing will change, except that the UK will no longer be a member of the EU. The bill makes this explicit: the European Communities Act, which puts the obligations of membership in British law, will continue to apply.
Parliament will have a say over trade deal negotiations
The bill gives parliament control of the negotiating mandate for the long-term trade deal with the EU (the "future relationship" in the jargon). It says ministers may not engage in negotiations unless a statement of objectives has been approved by the House of Commons, and that ministers "must seek to achieve" those objectives.
'Parliamentary Sovereignty' Clause
That portion sounds ominous. But Johnson negotiated a pair of escape clauses.
The bill includes a clause that begins: "It is recognised that the parliament of the United Kingdom is sovereign." This is persiflage designed to keep the sillier Eurosceptics happy. They do not like the continuing application of EU law during the transition period, or the eight-year phase-out of European Court of Justice jurisdiction over some EU citizenship questions.
Trap Door Clause
The bill gives parliament a say if the UK government decides to ask for an extension. But many MPs are worried that Boris Johnson wouldn't ask for one, opening a "trapdoor" to a delayed no-deal Brexit if there is no trade deal with the EU in place by the end of 2020.
If Johnson does not like the negotiations, at the end of 2020 he can walk away with No Deal, more accurately, a WTO Deal.
Trap Door to No Deal
CNN reported Labour Says Johnson's Plan is a "Trap Door to No-Deal".
Keir Starmer, the opposition Labour Party's lead spokesman on Brexit, has been addressing MPs. Much of his speech has focused on the trustworthiness of the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson.
Starmer also echoes the fear of many Labour lawmakers and some Conservatives – that a no-deal Brexit could happen at the end of the Brexit transition period in December 2020 if a free trade agreement is not concluded with the EU by then.
Johnson's deal is a "trap door to no-deal," Starmer said.
Amendments to get rid of the Trap Door failed. In fact, the WA was never approved. If Johnson's deal is approved, it will still contain the Trap Door.
Labour is not the only one worried about the Trap Door. Ken Clarke, an exiled Tory, also expressed concerns over the Trap Door.
Labour and Farage cannot both be right. Advantage goes to Labour.
The UK, can at the end of 2020 simply walk away with a WTO arrangement. Thus, Johnson is in control. He can always walk away if he believes the political declaration is binding.
The Trap Door is in fact what makes the EU likely to negotiate a reasonable deal.
Conclusion: At best, point 10 is a huge distortion of the truth, if not another outright lie.
Exit Settlement
The breakup fee was not in the Withdrawal Agreement by design as explained by the UK Parliament document Brexit: The Financial Settlement.
In the financial settlement (the settlement), the UK and EU have set out how they will settle their outstanding financial obligations to each other, which arise out of the UK's participation in the EU budget and broader aspects of its EU membership. The media have labelled the issue the 'exit bill' or 'divorce bill', the EU see it as a matter of 'settling the accounts'.
The settlement sets out the financial commitments that will be covered, the methodology for calculating the UK's share and the payment schedule. It forms part of the Withdrawal Agreement (WA) negotiated between Theresa May's government and the EU. No changes were made in the WA negotiated between Boris Johnson's government and the EU. The WA will become legally binding only once approved by the UK Parliament and the European Parliament.
Definitive figures of the settlement can't be calculated as it depends on future events, such as future exchange rates and actual EU budgets, but estimates have been produced. The latest estimate is that the settlement could cost the UK around £33 billion, based on an exit date of 31 October 2019. This is lower than the widely cited estimate of £39 billion, which was based on an exit date of 29 March 2019. Delaying Brexit means that the UK makes more payments to the EU as a Member State but fewer through the settlement. The net effect for UK payments to the EU is zero.
The official Brexit blog explains things this way: "The £39bn payment demanded is likely to be just the start, with billions more to follow."
However, Johnson did give a speech stating 65 billion. You can play the video at The Express.
That's a lie.
Nigel Farage says PM's Deal Would be a 'Disaster' for Scots.
The article did not say why.
I suggest Scotland would be no better off on a hard Brexit than under Johnson's deal.
In regards to SNP, Farage is right about this: "You cannot be independent if you're governed from the European court of justice. You cannot be independent if you're in the EU's customs union and single market. You cannot be independent if you're governed by Monsieur Barnier and Mr. Juncker."
If you believe Johnson threw Ireland under the bus, you finally have a strong point.
DUP wanted a veto of the arrangement but the EU could not grant that because DUP in and of itself would effectively have a veto over some EU policies.
But even them Johnson negotiated an exit as explained by Bloomberg.
Unlike May's deal, which could have left Northern Ireland in the EU customs union indefinitely, Johnson has negotiated an exit route: The Northern Ireland Assembly will be able to vote on whether to go on applying EU rules. But that can't happen until four years after the transition period finishes — so the end of 2024 at the earliest.
Northern Ireland will be trapped for four years. It is difficult to say precisely what will happen.
Johnson's deal was a red line for DUP. It has 10 of the Northern Ireland seats in the UK parliament. 7 are held by Sinn Féin nationalists, and 1 is independent.
Theresa May got tangled up because she needed DUP votes to stay in power.
Question of Trust
If you believe Johnson will not negotiate sincerely or will cave in to EU demand, I am not going to change your mind.
However, Johnson negotiated the best deal possible with the EU once Theresa May gave away the farm.
At a minimum, Johnson negotiated a deal that has the option of walking away. The EU significantly changed the Withdrawal Agreement and the Political Declaration.
This is despite enormous pressure from Remainers and deal advocates.
Had Johnson pressed for No Deal, it is a political certainty that Remainers would have defeated the effort for something far worse than Johnson's deal.
Many Labour MPs regret not having passed some deal, even Theresa May's deal so they could campaign against it.
Instead we have elections Johnson is poised to win.
Pack of Lies
Regardless of what you think Johnson will do, Farage's 10 key points are a huge pack of lies and distortions.
Johnson Farage Alliance?
It is not at all clear that Johnson could unite with Farage to deliver a No Deal Brexit.
There has been so much fearmongering and there are so many Tories who wanted a deal to conclude for sure that a Johnson-Farage lighting rod alliance would carry the day.
The best move for Farage would be to declare victory for his 30-year effort and move on.
He could even ask for or insist on some items in the upcoming negotiations, say fishing rights.
Instead, I suspect the Brexit Party will win zero seats while Farage moans from the sidelines.
WTO Deal On the Table
The Guardian Live reports the prime minister abandoned his pledge to give MPs a vote on whether or not to extend the Brexit transition beyond January 31 , 2020.
"We aren't extending the implementation period. There is no reason whatsoever why we will not secure a deal by that date. Both the UK and the EU are committed to reaching a trade agreement by that date and that is what we are going to do," said Johnson
The announcement led to claims Boris Johnson was planning to force through a no-deal Brexit.
Johnson committed to giving parliament a vote if they would pass his deal. They refused. That offer is no longer on the table.
Bluff? Who knows. But at a minimum it will give the EU something to think about including a preliminary agreement which the WTO allows.
Lies Aside
I decided to add this addendum.
Despite blatant lies the UK owes Farage a dose of thanks.
Tim Bowling's BrexitCentral article Nigel Farage has misjudged the mood of Brexiteers, which is why I've left the Brexit Party for the Tories explains.
Nigel Farage has always been a hero when it comes to Brexit. Unquestionably, the EU referendum would not have happened without him. He is a man of the people who galvanised two parties to electoral success and helped deliver a referendum result few felt possible even on polling day. But we are at a point now where the great hero of Brexit has become the man who might, as Jacob Rees-Mogg says, 'snatch defeat from the jaws of victory'.
Nigel's success in the European election thankfully ended the abysmal Theresa May premiership and ushered in the man who should have been elected Conservative leader three years ago – Boris Johnson. Fast forward nearly six months and the situation could not be more different. Conversely we now have a situation where the Brexit Party has ceased being the means of delivering Brexit and morphed into the party that could prevent it ever happening.
When dedicated Brexiteers from the European Research Group such as Mark Francois and Steve Baker (both 'Spartans' who consistently voted against the Theresa May Withdrawal Agreement) believe the Boris deal is Brexit, it seems ever more ludicrous that Nigel is continuing to preach about a perfect scenario. There is no such thing. It is high time he accepted this fact. Worse still, the behaviour of the Brexit Party leader is now coming across as petulant sour grapes. Unusually for Nigel, he appears to have totally misjudged the mood of Brexiteers. Most now acknowledge he should only be targeting between 20 and 50 Northern and Welsh Leave seats – and certainly not the full slate of candidates who are rostered to stand. Several of his own MEPs are in open revolt and even some of his general election candidates are standing down in protest. How ironic, then, if the man who championed the Brexit cause for three decades were to be the catalyst in overturning the largest democratic mandate this country has ever witnessed. I urge Nigel to put country before party, do the right thing and stand his troops down. If he does, history will respect him and he will always be our Brexit champion. If not, Brexit could be lost and he will be vilified by the very supporters who were once his political lifeblood.
This deal will deliver Brexit.
Moreover, Johnson could still opt for a WTO Brexit if the EU will not cooperate.
That's an amazing achievement.
Getting 80% of what you want and then pissing in the wind because you do not get the other 20% is not smart politics.

" There is no free trade deal with the EU unless..." You omitted this sentence from the above item. This makes what Farage said absolutely true. All 10 points are accurate.

Points NOT accurate negotiable in the next year - all bullshit

Johnson can walk away which presumably Farage wants. So what is he bitching about?

Mish, you reach the conclusion that "Point 8 is a blatant lie".
Point 8 says that "The UK is likely prohibited from negotiating trade deals with the rest of the world."
But besides Nigel Farage, it´s Donald Trump that says the same thing very emphatically. Are they BOTH wrong ? Just asking...
Nigel Farage and his Brexit Party votes will mean a yet again "hung Parliament" which will not allow for approval of Bojo´s New EU Treaty.
This means that we shall have NO-deal Brexit on December 31, 2019, as no further extension will be approved by the EU even if the UK asks for it.

Some how, some way, this Brexit thing will be in relatively the same place next year November and probably every year thereafter.

Indeed avidremainer totally gets it. The UK is stuck with all 11 points I wrote, when the UK sits down to negotiate a free trade deal.
BJ's treaty is a version of Hotel EU (aka California). The UK checked out, but it cannot leave the EU, if the UK tries to get a free trade deal or deal with other countries.
Quatloo
Great article Mish, appreciate your chasing down each of these arguments and going through them one at a time.
TumblingDice
@Greggg, I would agree with you, I'll believe Brexit happens when I see it. Remember the Congressional Republicans and Democrats with the Sequester (if they couldn't get a balanced budget they were supposed to do cuts across the board) years ago. When the day came to do the Sequester, what happened. Congress PUNTED. The initial drop date for Brexit was March 29 this year, now we are in November.
HenryV
Miles and miles and miles of red tape with the potential of WTO at the end; or bite the bullet and WTO now? This is all just typical of the EU bullshit designed to tie the UK in knots forever more that we voted to get away from.
People have become worn down by this and WANT to believe in the BoJo deal without looking too closely. I see this with people I talk with day to day. They can't be bothered any longer - they just WANT it to be true. They are far more concerned to get on with their lives and run their businesses without having all this hanging over them like a sword of Damocles. I sense a lot of people in the UK are saying 'If it says Brexit on the tin, that's good enough for me'. So I think if there is any miscalculation on the part of Farage, its that Brexit just isn't important enough in people's lives any longer. That is why there aren't millions (17.4) on the streets protesting in favour of the leave campaign.
Farage is the person who organised the Brexit and has been campaigning for a Brexit all his life, and now he suddenly "tells a huge pack of lies?"
It's CLEARLY BoJo who is the charlatan and the liar here. (just like Trump!)
Is "Mish Shedlock" just a pseudonym for the Tory Party these days? How much do they pay you to promote BoJo? Or do you get paid by the big US corporations who think they can make a killing on that lousy 'BRINO' deal that BoJo cooked up?

djwebb1969
Misha, this is so absurdly partisan you are in danger of ruining what was a good blog. Yes, the UK will be able to strike trade deals, but 1. they only come into force once the transition period ends, and the agreement allows the EU to trap the UK into a never-ending transition unless we agree all their terms (it could walk away on the WTO, but won't), and 2. the ability to sign trade deals will be constrained by whatever regulatory alignment the UK agrees with the EU. For example, if regulations are agreed with the EU designed to "capture" the UK car market in perpetuity, the US can agree lower tariffs with the UK, but will have to abide by the regulations the EU imposes. So your point about ability to strike trade deals is not as good as you claim.
On the political declaration: no, this is not just a statement of intent. Because Article 184 of the actual withdrawal agreement requires, legally binds, the UK to negotiate to achieve the goals in the PD with its "best endeavours", and the arbiter of whether the UK is using its best endeavours is the ECJ. For example, the UK cannot simply decide not to hand fisheries over, as it has a legal commitment to use best endeavours to agree "non-discriminatory" access to its waters for EU fleets (the word 'non-discriminatory' is in the PD). The likelihood is that, short of leaving on the no deal in December 2020, Britain can only exit the transition period when it agrees to all of the EU's terms. So your point on the PD is entirely false.
On Northern Ireland: the frictionless nature of trade with GB is undermined by the need to fill in customs declarations (and by the unconstitutional stationing of southern Irish officials in Northern Irish ports with the power to override UK officials in every circumstance). Horror stories will abound about someone in Belfast buying 10 things online from Great Britain and being told the Southern Irish officials believe this could be for export to the RoI and so the EU customs tariff must be paid (with a very cumbersome process to reclaim it).
You say fishing and financial services are to be worked out later. But the whole point is that this is not the deal -- the whole deal emerges in 3 years' time or later -- and will only emerge at all if Britain agrees to all the EU's terms. If we don't use our best endeavours we are in a backstop-like permanent transition period.
We can walk away with no-deal in December 2020 - but will have signed up to pay £39bn we don't owe anyway. In any case, the Conservatives would never walk way with no deal. Have you seen the remainers on the Conservatives benches and how he's restored the whip to some of the Remainer rebels? If his idea of negotiation is to hand over Northern Ireland and £39bn for nothing, you can be sure he will never leave the transition on a no deal. You say the £39bn may be £33bn, but it could be £59bn if the transition period is extended -- or even more if the transition period never ends. You didn't even mention the fact the UK is liable for up to £40bn if the eurozone collapses under a guarantee to the European Central Bank.
That is a good roundup Mish. Mish has put himself out to present this to us, and he leaves room for it to be argued, so no need to accuse him of agenda.
Personally I see that there is room for the WA to be taken in either direction, and I am in no position to say in advance what tory intent is, obviously I am wary. At best a tory majority allows a decent set of agreements to be reached or no deal, at worst it just turns into another way to reach a May deal or similar.
As for Farage, well I haven't figured that out either yet.
So any view by necessity is somewhere speculative, has to be unless tories make a clear pledge on their direction, so making it half speculative. They probably won't, and half speculative is as good as speculative as far as certainty is concerned, but let the discussion continue, it is the only way to build a picture no matter which side of it anyone is....
"the whole deal emerges in 3 years' time or later -- and will only emerge at all if Britain agrees to all the EU's terms."
Just like the EU would NEVER change the WA? Just like the EU would NEVER change the political statement?
And what about the ability to walk away in one year if the EU won't. That results in the WTO arrangement which I assure you the EU does not want
So, it's not 3 years is it? It's 1. At the end of 1 year I expect the EU and UK to agree to a temp deal which the WTO allows - The ECJ will not come into play in a significant way or the UK walks
This negotiation stance is pretty easy for the UK. And I believe it will work.
QUESTION for everyone, specially Mish:
Just WHY do you think the EU Parliament members were oh so happy to joyfully high five with Bojo his own surrender New EU Treaty (not a "deal") ?
Michel Barnier sports the perfect "cat that just ate the canary" look no ?
A Brexit Deal in Hand, Boris Johnson Faces an Uphill Struggle in Parliament
Britain's prime minister cited a "great new deal that takes back control," hours after a Northern Irish party rejected the agreement.
Bagger is Correct:
Barnier's comments were yesterday (or earlier). Boris gave his response yesterday - "No extension beyond Dec 2020". Seems clear enough to me. Either Barnier gets a move on next year or we leave on WTO terms next December. As Mish describes in above article.
Barnier is playing some sort of game, perhaps hoping for a Labour win. Such talk is north worth discussing.
In the end, I fully expect a temp arrangement without ECJ garbage. The WTO allows favorable trade treatment while a deal is being worked out.
That is the logical conclusion. And BTW such an agreement would meet "best efforts" language.
Brexit is not as big a deal as its made out to be because Britain never joined the currency union. Also given how slow economic growth has been, it will have a negligible effect on the economies of EU and Britain. In fact creating new trade deals will create opportunities for companies in Britain and elsewhere.
JackWayne
You really don't understand the politics in my opinion. You back-hand Farage as being a true hero for getting Brexit but not understanding how he will kill the whole idea. Sounds elitist to me. "You're good but not our kind." Here's my take: DUP will not like the deal. There goes 10 votes from Johnson. The Libs will get all the remain votes that Labour doesn't get. In order to have political persuasion, Farage must pick up enough Brexit votes to deny Bojo a majority without those votes. If Farage achieves that then the Brexit THAT HE HAS GIVEN MOST OF HIS ADULT LIFE TO WILL BE ACHIEVED. I encourage him to do this. It's the only move he can make. And, FWIW, Bojo is a weakling and idiot. But he may get his Tory majority and ignore Farage. My guess is that Farage's party will surge in the polls and Bojo will be forced to make concessions before the election.
So, after all is said and (not) done in three-years time, maybe Donald Trump will be the only one that was right when he suggested to Theresa May that the best way to approach Brexit was to sue the EU...

Great analysis Mish.
Here is also another good article that explains why both Nigel and Trump are not right (to put it mildly) with regards to BJ's deal. I said it "mildly" because I support both, as both of them fight for conservative values both here in the UK and in the US:

Both articles correct. The first is simple facts of the matter about which there is no dispute. Second is an opinion I agree with. Thanks
" I don't understand how one minute Farage is god's gift to humanity and the next, according to Mish, he is the devil incarnate."
Hello AvidRemainer I never said Farage was god's gift to humanity. I did say he was good for the UK.
He made an excellent contribution to the Brexit campaign.I explained my reasons.
And I never called him the "devil incarnate."
You are making up a ridiculous straw man that has no footing.
There are numerous MPs and others who agree with what I said.
You don't see because you don't want to see. The facts remain.
1: Farage is a Brexit liar
2: Up to this point he was a hero who helped deliver the Referendum
Those points are not mutually exclusive now are they AvidRemianer?
All politicians are liars of course, but Farage is Blatant and detrimental to his own own cause.
BTW it would not surprise me one bit if this is just some posturing scheme and Farage backs down.
But meanwhile, lies are lies.

Oh dear, oh dear here we go again. Can some people not get it into their heads that there are two stages - exit (i.e. get it done) and trade deal (or no deal) to be negotiated? One is a treaty, the other is an aspiration.
Once we are out, assuming there is a good enough majority to drive it through house, all the UK has to do is adopt the negotiating position that May failed to even comprehend existed. We set the base as WTO, we prepare in earnest for it to be implemented it and we stick firmly to the mantra that we are willing to walk away if not satiated.
Cue massive wailing and wringing of hands by former remoaners but who cares? Anyone who's been watching Continental politics can see that Merkel will be toast before long, everything changes then anyway.

"Today, the plains bison is for all practical purposes ecologically extinct within its original range." ~ C.H. Freese, Second chance for the plains bison
"Current management of private, state, and Federal bison herds is leading towards domestication of bison that threatens their wild character and limits important natural selection processes." ~ Position Statement of the Montana Chapter of The Wildlife Society on Wild Bison in Montana
"Yellowstone National Park is the only place in the lower 48 States where bison have existed in a wild state since prehistoric times. Bison occupied the region encompassing the park from shortly after recession of the last glaciers 10,000 to 12,000 years ago, until the 19th century when they came close to extirpation." ~ C. Cormack Gates, The Ecology of Bison Movements and Distribution in and beyond Yellowstone National Park
"The Bison of Yellowstone National Park are unique among bison herds in the United States, being descendants, in part, of the only continuously wild herd in this country." ~ Margaret Mary Meagher, The Bison of Yellowstone National Park

The Neothink level 3 meeting was great I will get back to reading 2nd heirloom and Miss Annabelle. I am so glad to be part of this org. From just reading the 1st heirloom has helped me in my thinking. Strangely enough I have been dealing with since last February. I have been going thru the Bronx New York Housing Court. That Institution is a disgrace. There should be a laws to protect the Landlord from tenants who abuse this Court System. It's no wonder the Mortgage industry is failing. States like New York protect the tenant. This Tenant has been without a lease since March 2010. Living off of me for free. I am not a slum lord. I have been suffering since march when she decided she did not want to pay and did not want to move. Now she is going to a shelter. Why can't the court system put a cap on the damage a tenant can cause an (Individual?) Anyway I have been preoccupied with upgrading the property, going to court each month, wondering will I ever get rid of this value destroyer. very destructive to me. Hopefully the ordeal will be over by January 10th if not a little sooner??? I STAND FOR INDIVIDULE RIGHTS. WHY SHOULD OUR GOV give another person the right to (Destroy Value Producers)? This has been so wrong for too long. I believe in my mind it to be over soon?
I also want to mention after getting caught up to level 3 tonight I AGAIN STAND FOR THE INDIVIDUAL TO BE INFORMED OF DOCUMENTED TRUTHS OF THE BIG PHARM, AMA,FDA How these 2 and 3 Billion a year Industries make money at the expense of Human Life at the same time robbing us for their (poison drugs). Natural Cures are more HUMANE! Let Natural Cures be covered by Medical Insurance! Let IMMORTALITY REIGN!!!
Also require Chemistry of Nutrition courses. Educate Children/Adults how the cells in the body function. Give the teachers the freedom to expose the truth. Let the people know the dirty secrets of our gov. Let people know the negative effects of pharmaceuticals on the human body. You hear of Deaths all the time.
I am glad to able to get back to the meetings again.

Ryan Miller gets 36th shutout as Canucks blank LA Kings 3-0
LOS ANGELES (AP) Although Ryan Miller and coach Willie Desjardins refuse to get excited too early, the Vancouver Canucks are on an early-season roll through their Pacific Division opponents' home buildings.
Miller made 15 saves in his 36th career shutout, Adam Cracknell scored his second goal in two games, and the Canucks completed a Southern California sweep with a 3-0 victory over the winless Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night.
Alexander Edler had a goal and an assist, and Derek Dorsett added an empty-net goal for the Canucks, who followed up a 2-1 shootout win over Anaheim on Monday by improving to 3-0-1.
Desjardins preached caution against overconfidence from the Canucks' California double, even after a victory that was never really in doubt.
''It's not like we dominated,'' Desjardins said. ''We could have lost both games as well. Both teams are really good teams. We're happy with the wins, but we're not taking anything for granted.''
Miller is off to a strong start after matching his career high with six shutouts last season, his first with the Canucks. Not even the veteran goalie imagined the Canucks would win their first three road games of the season, particularly against two playoff teams and a recent Stanley Cup champion. Vancouver also won at Calgary in its season opener.
''You hope, (but) you look at the schedule and see some tough games,'' Miller said. ''Not every night is going to go your way, either. But we put ourselves in a good position.''
Jonathan Quick stopped 23 shots for struggling Los Angeles, which has been outscored 11-2 while losing three straight home games to open the season.
Since Nick Shore scored 1:49 into their season opener, the Kings have managed just one goal in 178 minutes, 11 seconds. Their power play is 0 for 13.
''We're just not doing the things that we've got to do to get the quality chances and the shots,'' center Anze Kopitar said. ''Whether that's not coming in with position or recovering the puck the way we should, we're playing too soft.''
Quick made several big saves in his best effort of the season after giving up nine goals in Los Angeles' first two games, but the two-time Stanley Cup champion and 2012 Conn Smythe Trophy winner got no support from his teammates. The Kings' championship-winning veterans have seen enough.
''We're not doing what we need to do in order to win,'' defenseman Alec Martinez said. ''We're not winning battles in tough areas, we're not good enough in our own end and we're not capitalizing on chances. We're not playing with a sense of urgency.''
For the second straight night, the Canucks got another unlikely offensive contribution from Cracknell. The veteran forward hadn't scored in 49 games since April 4, 2013, until he scored in back-to-back games in Southern California.
One night after banking a weird shot off Ducks goalie Frederik Andersen for his seventh career NHL goal, Cracknell got his eighth with a one-timer that ricocheted off Quick, who didn't anticipate the shot being so far off-target.
''To come down here and play Anaheim and L.A. very well, both strong teams, we needed everybody,'' Cracknell said. ''That's what we got from these last two games.''
Vancouver failed to score on a 5-on-3 advantage for 80 seconds later in the second, but Edler made it 2-0 with a long shot on a cross-ice pass from Henrik Sedin.
The Kings came up empty on three straight power plays early in the third period, and they rarely threatened to score before Dorsett wrapped it up.
NOTES: Jake Virtanen made his NHL debut for Vancouver, playing nearly 9 1-2 minutes and recording three hits. The 19-year-old forward was the sixth overall pick in 2014, and the British Columbia native made the Canucks' roster out of training camp after spending most of last season in juniors. ... Vancouver had lost six of eight to Los Angeles before winning the Pacific Division rivals' last three meetings.
This story has been corrected to show that the coach is Willie Desjardins.

Using SketchUp To Design Woodworking Shop – New Shop Part 1
Hello again everyone. I am finally back with part 1 of my multi-part series covering my shop move. In this series I will be documenting the entire process from start to ending in a new shop tour. In part 1, this video, I will be walking you all through the very detailed planning that I went through to develop the final layout of the new shop. I will discuss some of the considerations while visiting the home, how I will tackle electrical, dust collection, and over all layout.
If there is any specific information on any of these that you would like to see in later parts of the series, feel free to leave those ideas in the comments section below. I will do my best to address any of those in the later videos.
I mentioned my friend Matthew in the video and the amazing assembly table that he made and I will be using for the design of my own. If you want to take a look, click on the link to his Instagram page below.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B8k3Io6px9r/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
Let me know what you think in the comments section below. If you have any questions you can also leave them below or you can head over to Instagram and follow me there and shoot me a DM. I would be happy to answer any questions that you may have about this video or anything else.

Nice job – can't wait to see the progress. The first time we get an ice storm or a lot of snow, you will want that car *in* the garage! 💪🤛
Patrick Melchior on January 11, 2023 at 2:20 am
Looks like the new shop is coming along nicely.
Vane on January 11, 2023 at 2:20 am
I would put up osb or plywood so you can hang stuff on the wall like french cleats
louisclarkeii on January 11, 2023 at 2:21 am
Check out the Versa Lift system for the attic storage.
Fred on January 11, 2023 at 2:23 am
Pull down stairs are nice, but if your roof has trusses, make sure there designed for at least light storage. I would almost bet there not designed for light storage. You can get yourself into a lot of trouble. Anything more than the drywall on the ceiling could over load the trusses, especially if your where you get snow load. Just a word of caution .
D's Hard Wood Creations on January 11, 2023 at 2:26 am
Gotta love having a blank canvas. Looking forward to following progress
DRMadeIt on January 11, 2023 at 2:26 am
Looks like you're gonna need power where you said you wouldn't need power 😯
Anthony Hamby on January 11, 2023 at 2:28 am
Can't wait to see the progress of your shop
luna on January 11, 2023 at 2:29 am
You could also get a jackmaster garage door opener that mounts next to the door with no bars and chains.
BK Makes on January 11, 2023 at 2:29 am
Exciting! Can't wait to get my house sold and started on a similar path😄
Lee Ewing on January 11, 2023 at 2:32 am
Didn't you mention a Miter saw station at the begining? Doesn't look like the final plan takes into account for that with dust collection or power (other than the Outlet that was originally there). Just curious.
Marvin Alford on January 11, 2023 at 2:32 am
Jason, once you get better at Sketchup, you'll love it. My ears perked up when you mentioned putting in one of those metal ladders to access the attic. Would love to hear your thoughts on that once you've installed and used it for a bit. Your shop is taking shape! Looking forward to the series.
Mathew Anderson on January 11, 2023 at 2:32 am
I'd love to know what you're doing for lighting, especially if you're planning and designing it yourself.
Mike Vincent on January 11, 2023 at 2:33 am
Are all the 220 plugs dedicated circuits?
Vic Stewart on January 11, 2023 at 2:34 am
I live in Indianapolis. Any thought about heating and cooling? Ventilation for finishing? As a garage shop owner I wish mine had it.

This is great. I have a lot of things to get stored till it can get sorted. After combining two households last year when I got married… And then buying a new house… Things are STILL not organized. I've built two other shelves and they aren't that great. I really like how sturdy these shelves look. Thanks for the free plans! I'll be adding them to the cabinet plans I purchased.
John Bies on January 11, 2023 at 2:38 am
not enough outlets… I hope you tripled the number of outlets you installed in your shop before installing drywall.
Todd Zaki Warfel on January 11, 2023 at 2:38 am
Where did you get the components/assets for things like the table saw, drill press, jointer/planer? Did you make those by hand, or find them and import them somehow? I'm planning my shop now and it would be easier to drop these in than build them by hand in SketchUp.
Hansang Bae on January 11, 2023 at 2:42 am
Very high-speed! Very hooah! 🙂 Early Christmas/Hanukkah for you, I'm sure.
Nappy Newt on January 11, 2023 at 2:42 am
Awesome video! Gave me a lot of good ideas since I'm kinda in the same situation. Like you I'm starting my collection of tools and setting my shop up for the very first time. But I think I need to plan out better to make my decisions with more confidence. Love the videos! Keep up the great work! Btw, I'm military man myself and I want to say thanks for your service and dedication brother! Respect 💯👊🏾
Kevin Bridle on January 11, 2023 at 2:43 am
Good luck Sir on your new workshop. Some thought at this stage will pay many dividends.
Brian Turntine on January 11, 2023 at 2:43 am
Can't wait to see the progress. Great design.
Charles Holder on January 11, 2023 at 2:43 am
What are the dimensions of your shop? Planning on building a shouse in a couple of years and need to plan everything out in advance so trying to get ideas on size and layout.
Bruce Martin on January 11, 2023 at 2:44 am
Congrats on your new shop! You might want to give some serious consideration to painting the floor with that epoxy floor coating with the color flakes in it. It will make cleanup, and keeping it clean, much easier. Plus it looks awesome.
Jesse Rosales on January 11, 2023 at 2:45 am
What version of Sketchup is this?
Michael on January 11, 2023 at 2:48 am
Yeah Jason, I know what you mean about Sketchup lol. I tried to learn it 😤 So I found that April Wilkerson had a two part tutorial on it and tried that 😤😤😤 so needless to say, I went back to my pad, ruler n pencil 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Randy L on January 11, 2023 at 2:48 am
is using metal ductwork much more expensive than PVC and why is metal better? I'm getting ready to add a dust collection system and have to go the frugal route as in Harbor Freight.
Chris Longfield-Smith on January 11, 2023 at 2:48 am
I am trying to learn how to do the sketchup workshop design like your friend did. What are some good resources/videos to learn? I can do basic box stuff in sketchup but I'd love to make something with tools and real looking stuff.
Fullers WoodShop on January 11, 2023 at 2:51 am
Great layout. I have the exact same garage except mine is detached. I might borrow some of you layouts. I have been moving stuff around but still need to do duct work for my dust collection.
Get Things Built on January 11, 2023 at 2:51 am
Hi Jason what the software you were using for the sketch up?
John Ross on January 11, 2023 at 2:53 am
Looks like your getting it together. I'll be watching the progress unfold. I do have one question. Did you move your shop stuff on your orders or ship it separately and if on the orders did you come in under weight? On one of my moves I was allotted 18K lbs. The driver told me at destination that I was over but he helped me out and showed I came in around 17,600. Helped save some $$$. Good luck on the set up.
Okiedrew on January 11, 2023 at 2:53 am
Might look at a home made elevator for your attic
Matt Fabian on January 11, 2023 at 2:53 am
Looking like its going to be a good setup!! Do you still have your Powermatic planer and jointer and your old assembly table? Or are you selling them?
steven baker on January 11, 2023 at 2:56 am
Really awesome and fun to be able to start from scratch. I am a new woodworker building my garage shop. Not as many tools nor do I have your talent, but it is interesting how after I make a change in set up I recognize something else I want to change.
Michael Daniel on January 11, 2023 at 2:56 am
You should run 6" pipe closer to your cnc. Transition to 4" at the cnc. Nice plan
Brent Fowler on January 11, 2023 at 3:02 am
Are you going to be doing videos on the new shop builds?
Jon Bailey on January 11, 2023 at 3:02 am
Really enjoyed the video, how come you aren't making more of your tools mobile? I'm guessing do to the power and dust collection needs? I also have a three car garage but have more nonshop related stuff in the garage I have to store. So with my great weather here I utilize the driveway a lot more and can move most of my more messy tools outside since I currently don't have a dust collection system.
Chipotle661944 on January 11, 2023 at 3:03 am
I love my wife, but no way I trust her parking that close to my table saw!
Mr X. on January 11, 2023 at 3:04 am
Good luck there. I have just bought a place with 3 garages. But I have a wall separating single from double with inter leading door. Gonna have to plan this properly as I will be doing woodworking and Metal working.
Matthew Byington on January 11, 2023 at 3:04 am
Looking great man! Can't wait to keep following the progress!
Richard on January 11, 2023 at 3:06 am
I'm so happy for you. Looks great. Doesn't the Hammer Jointer/planer have a 5" port? If so, should the branch to the middle drop be a 6"?
Mitchell Brinkhuis on January 11, 2023 at 3:07 am
Great video. I've used Sketchup before but definitely not an expert. Where did all of the objects come from like the drill press, table saw, CNC etc? Did you or your buddy make those or did you find a download somewhere?
Ryan Faber on January 11, 2023 at 3:07 am
Don't set your electrical up so you're stuck with 110 at any outlets. I'm not an elecrician, but I'm pretty sure some one who is can Wire it all like they are 220 outlets, then where you want 110, pop 2 110 breakers where the 220 would have been and wire your quad 110s so they are on the different sides of the 220. You'll end up with every 100 on its own breaker, but you'll be able to change when you want to.
Jonathan Femenella on January 11, 2023 at 3:08 am
Looks awesome man! Can't wait to see this all come to life!
Leather By Dragonfly on January 11, 2023 at 3:09 am
We are glad things are falling into place. The new shop seems to be looking like you have been using your down time wisely.
DIY Projects on January 11, 2023 at 3:13 am
What are the plans for miter station dust collection? Love hearing your thought process.
Wadesam on January 11, 2023 at 3:13 am
Just came across this video and I am wondering why your table saw outfeed is on the wifes care side of the garage instead of towards the assembly table. That is a lot of walking with with your cut ups to the table. No one else asked this, so what am i missing?
Buckley Baker on January 11, 2023 at 3:14 am
I had the same problem with garage door opener being in my way my neighbor suggested a lift master opener you can place rails closer to ceiling and eliminate the track opener
Bren Hartman on January 11, 2023 at 3:14 am
Looking forward to learning more about the assembly station.
Chris Cianci on January 11, 2023 at 3:17 am
I've never installed a Dust Collection system so this may be a foolish question but…Any chance you can raise the DC up off the floor or I the attic ? I'm just thinking to save for space and to keep the noise down.


text:
Q: Polylongdiv: Show x^n if the coefficient = 0 I'm trying to figure out how to display x^n with 0 as coefficient in the polynom divison. I'm using the polynom package for this but the following example doesn't show x^3 and x.
Minimal example
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{polynom}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\polyset{style=C,div=:,vars=x}
\polylongdiv{x^4 + 0 x^3 - 45 x^2 + 0x + 324}{x - 6}
\end{center}
\end{document}

I didn't find anything in the package's manual. So is there a solution for my problem?

A: As LaRiFaRi said here's my solution:
$\tabularShortstack{crcrcrcrcrl}{

    &           &-      &(6x^3      &-          &36x^2      &)          &           &\\
