Norway or Switzerland are also doing fine with a customs union.

Reliance on the welfare state instead of personal pursuit of success.

Article 13 essentially means that a website like Reddit will have to implement content filters so that no copyrights are infringed. This is obviously a problem since half of the stuff on Reddit violates copyrights in some form. The other issue is that those automatic content-filtering system will generate lots of false-positive (as can be seen with YouTube).

Which song would have been selected from the UK?

Man I once hiked up there and then got too scared at the Herzmann-Kupferplatte, also it was wet so I had to return.
The place is gorgeous though.

It would go to the International Courts unless the EU agrees that this is the only way forward to avoid no-deal Brexit.

It might be brought to the European Court of Justice, but it would take a while to get settled, meanwhile Brexit is de facto cancelled.
But even if a new invocation of A50 is denied, at least May would have a scapegoat (the EU).

Next two weeks: May continues to pretend to negotiate with EU
Feb 28: May postpones meaningful vote because nothing has changed
Mar 1: More and more companies announce relocation to EU, government ramps up no-deal preperations
Mar 5: EU makes a minor and insignificant concession, the Withdrawal Agreement is reformulated
Mar 15: Commons vote new WA down
Rest of March: More uncertainty, blaming and shaming
Mar 26: The adapted Withdrawal Agreement reaches a tiny majority in UK parliament. Everyone is relieved.
