    USA not realistic until after the election although calls from Congress are to help us out asap.

    Aus / NZ talking about a joint agreement.

    India just wants a deal with anyone in Europe.

    So in answer to your question, I don't know. But better than countries refusing to speak to us at all.
    We'll get a deal with all those in maybe 10 years.
    But I don't think our trade and fiscal position will be very healthy by then, since offical Tory policy is to abandon balancing the books.
    Politicians and their short term ways eh?
    As long as they aren't in power they don't really give a crap about fooking the country up long term

      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          Funny that searching, the hit directly above a link to this thread (which is one of the top hits on Google), is from the Spectator pointing out that trade agreements cannot be made until Article 50 has been enacted AND the agreement on the split has been made. The top hit for the list is a website known for quite right wing propaganda and owned by Murdoch. Its claim about Iceland comes from a Twitter post and reply. The reply coming from a journalist, not a politician.

            All I can find is the Daily Mail story from 2 days ago. The Telegraph has the pound plummeting to a 31 year low again on the great news of these trade deals.

            New Zealand seem to be taking pity and offering to lend us some of their negotiators; ours aren't up to the job it seems. But don't worry. It'll be fine. We'll get everything we want and not have to give up any control to anyone else.
            Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                Well I think you'll find that all of these right leaning media outlets will be saying things like that because they've been backing a proposal without a plan and are trying to cover up for the fact that they've been living a lie the last few months, so why not carry on?
