Seems like Macron, with one eye on the elections there in 18 months, made lavish promises to French fisherman and now doesn't want to be seen to be backing down.Macron's 10 years was to enable him to sign up to the rest of it. When he doesn't get his 10 years, then what?
I guess when there's 27 different countries to appease, talks were always going to fall down somewhere.
10 years access to out waters though is as outrageous as it is unacceptable. Boris cannot be blamed for walking away. Talks totally collapsing will be Macron's fault much to the chagrin of Merckel who just wants the while thing done already.
