        There's a lot of huffy demanding in that document, It is over a year old mind you but still, shows what we should be expecting I guess.

        Strange they have the cheek to 'require' us to stick to minimum wage and health standards - pot kettle black much!!

        Plus some weird Israel-protectorate stuff - That's straight up strongarming an agenda. SURELY we wouldn't let political determinations into our new trade negotiations, now that we're sovereign ?!

          US to insist on tariffs applied to third countries in order to bring prices of third country products in line with US imports. ie the US will not allow the UK to purchase cheaper else where.

            That is pure BS.

              The US has 'objectives' which are subject to negotiation. The EU has 'intentions' - and many of those are far worse than anything the US might want from us.
              His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

                Should have lumped in with the US after WW2 instead. We'd be far better off by now no doubt about it.
