    I'm sure Trump and Boris will thump out a deal that's right for the people. It's not like they'd lie to us in order to service their own agenda.

      What exactly can you be more specific ?

      The public services such as the NHS was excluded from the trade agreement. In any case the UK had a veto on the whole deal so it wouldn't have gone through without agreement from the UK government. Most Brexiters simply think the Commissioners can do what they want. In reality on most important issues the UK could have and did block eg the Euro.

      I see the UK is now a weaker negotiater, before the UK could have held the entire EU-US deal to ransom if it didn't get what it wanted, now it'll be little UK (without Scotland) grovelling for a trade deal to stimulate trade. The US will probably offer fait a complit.

        No it couldn't. We handed our veto rights away when Mr C went to get us a great deal so we would stay. That was our last protection up the swanny.

        And more importantly why should little Britain keep holding the EU to ransom? We needed to either commit or leave and the remainders were sat in a position where they wrongly thought they had a choice.
