    "Even with our North Eastern Asian partners, Europe remains by far our biggest investment partner."

    This comes just days after the US backed away from a similar 'front of the queue'

    He then lavished praise on dealing with the EU, as the prospect of completing a trade deal with the 27-member bloc grows"


    Ouch! Brutal reality.
    Australia needs the UK more that the UK needs Australia so they will come to heel.

        Yep, the daily ritual gloat from the Bremainer wailing chorus on finding some trivial news snippet they desperately hope might bolster their argument, but in the end will probably make no difference whatever to anything.

            This ain't so trivial: https://www.ft.com/content/f1435a8e-...4-9023f8c0fd2e
            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.

              What economic news do you count as non-trivial?
              Does the fact that the growth rate is slowing down in the UK (when everyone else's is rising) in the context of a growing world economy not ring any alarm bells?
              Hard Brexit now!

                International groupthink about trade deals with UK?

                  Not everyone jumps at their own shadow quite the way that YOU do sas. Anyone would think that you spend your entire online day desperately scrabbling around for gloomy half-truths to justify your obsessions.

                    No use talking to them. They are still calculating how the Charlemagne Division could still break through Soviet lines and save the city. IF ONLY THERE WAS MORE TIME!

                      That wasn't even slightly funny the first time you tried it.

                      You really do need to up your game and try and dig out some original material.
