‘I've always thought that a free trade deal with the U.S. would be difficult’ Boris Johnson

[SirGalahad]

Everyone is aware that it would be impossible to get such a deal from inside the EU?

What deal would that be? Impact on the economy minimal. Lowering standards on food. Impact on the UK GDP between 0.07% and 0.15% over 15 years.

That's not a deal, that's self flaggelation.

So by leaving the EU we could get a deal that wouldn't help us much. That's Brexit think.

The EU can’t get a good trade deal, because nobody can.

There is no point getting a bad trade deal.

Uncle Joe won't give BloJo anything worth a damn. He's seen as a mini-Trump, a pale shadow of the monsterous organism that's infected the Republican party. He did remind him that the Irish border would become a big problem if the Brexit protocol wasn't sorted out soon and without any concrete evidence it will be there's no chance of any trade deal.

American politics is as broken as UK politics.

there is no democracy.

At least he managed to get a meeting. The last labour PM had a rather Mr Been moment.

To think I used to knock hapless Gordo. He now looks like a statesman of towering stature compared to what we have now.

Blimey the EU spent 7 years in negotiations with the US about a trade deal

and all they agreed was to agree to disagree

the yanks lost the will to live talking to 28 different countries who could not even agree amongst them selves

most of the issues probably came from the French contingent

Rumour has it that some one from some delegation pinched the carpets out of the conference centre

There is no point getting a bad trade deal.

As Scott Morrison said this week after the EU announced a delay with trade deal negotiations because of the submarine contract, "if they can't do a deal with us, they can't do a deal with anyone".

The EU are becoming a laughing stock on a global scale.

Well - I guess there are dribbling gigglers who find even party balloons funny all over the globe.

But in the world where people who can breathe without giggling and dribbling live what you say isnt true. In fact its you who is the laughing stock. But dont fret - what you believe is utterly irrelevant.

The irony

and don’t forget to breath

And must be worth very little if even BJ cant be bothered to lie about it.

Tranny is explaining that when he wrote "The uk do 300 odd billlion trade with the USA every year" he had no idea what it meant, or if it was true.
