Oh dear a Bremoaner complaining again.

Michael O'Leary tells UK: 'The world will want to screw you' - Independent.ie

He needs to pull himself together.

Yeah but this is from a man who deliberately underfuels planes thus putting peoples lives in jeopardy just to line his own pockets.

Maybe it is not the world trying to screw you but rather pointless grabbing tw@s like him?

He may be a brash fellow, but I am afraid he's making a point. Try and look at it from the point of view of the trade negotiators in every major nation. What will be their strategy? It's going to be along the lines of 'The UK has left the EU, they are desperate to strike new trade deals, let's drive as hard a deal as we can' The idea that the US, Australia, China, India,...etc are going to be all benign and cuddly with us is arrant nonsense. These countries will all look after their own self interest first and will respond to the demands of their own internal lobbies and pressure groups. Ask yourselves why is it that till this day the ban on UK beef in the US is still in place

You're suggesting that nations trading is negative for either one or both parties. I'm surprised anyone does it at all. Hang on, perhaps it might be in the interest of both parties?

Every nation seeks the best possible deal for itself. That's just a fact. If you don't know that then you are seriously deluded. I ask you again why has the US retained the ban on British beef? Because of their domestic meat lobby. 'Special relationship' and 'Common values' count for nothing in trade talks.

The US will be looking to get access to the NHS(As it was trying to do during the EU trade talks), they will be looking to get their lovely chlorine washed chicken onto UK tables and don't forget good old GM everything. India will be looking to get even more bobs into the UK , China will be looking to dump more sub standard crap on us. Of course we can get such deals signed and sealed much quicker than the EU ever could, but the question is, will they be good deals for us??
