For the Aussies the trade deal is business. For the UK it’s about symbolism. How it impacts UK business or agricultural sectors is irrelevant. The UK Govt is not interested in UK business or industry.

It symbolises how desperate we are to anyone else we speak to about doing a deal and how much self harm we are prepared to do for the sake of claiming a victory....
 
Again….NI is a special case. I fully agree the EU should enforce product rules for product going into the EU.

You can go on about whataboutery all you like, the UK have made it clear the products are for consumption in NI only.

We have the concept in this country of innocent before being proven guilty; you seem to be suggestion NI residents and business are intent on flouting EU law with zero evidence to back this up. Well done, what sentence do you wish to pass down your honour?


For someone who votes for the party of ''Border Control'' you dont seem to have any idea as to how ''Border Controls'' actually work (bit like Patel really) .

The Eu want to maintain the integrity of the single market and the quality / safety controls that have spent years setting up and agreeing between member nations (to protect the health of its citizens) .

They are not going to leave the backdoor open especially as the UK government are signing up to hormone injected meat and cereals doused in chemicals which they have banned in the Eu.
 
remember when this gullible fool argued with James O'Brien that she would be selling her wet fish into far east markets? Zero fucks given here I can tell you.

But they all 'knew what we are voting for''

she has been on his show since blaming the application of the idea not the idea itself............she is one of those bellends that thinks you just do something unilaterally that affects other countries and they just have to agree so as far as she sees it we just tell the world all the waters and all the fish they contain are ours and the rest of them can fuck off
 
I’m already planning what to do with my extra 2p per week.

save it up - it will only take @ 10 months to be able to afford the quid to hire a shopping trolley at your local supermarket - sadly it will take you 3 years to have enough to buy a box of 3 Magnum ice creams from that supermarket though.
 
I can't find the bit about record salmon exports in Q1, but it seemed at odds with stuff like Norway shows the scale of salmon farmers’ Brexit problems | The Economist

It turns out that, largely because the consignments were in complete lorry loads (rather than the shellfish in smaller consignments that fell foul of the new regime for category B waters), Scottish farmed salmon was exported in record tonnage (though Brexit is partly blamed for a fall in prices so not a record in value).

I guess there's something for everyone in this: https://www.scottishsalmon.co.uk/blog/lies-damned-lies-and-statistics
 
Don’t worry.
We’re global Britain doing trade deals with countries further away than the EU are managing.
Secret trade deals. Apart from Truss and the brilliant negotiator Frost who spends most of his time trying to undo his last deal, who knows what's in the Oz deal?

Good read, nice to hear from people directly involved and detailing the real issues. £200k a month in Brexit costs is revenue that would be better utilised elsewhere.

Luckily, the UK Govt has established a task force to eliminate unnecessary red tape and administrative burden. I have forwarded this article to them as a good place to start.

Joining the European Single Market will eliminate £billions in red tape for UK industry and simplify the NI issue as well.

Lets hope that unlike the blinkered commissars of communism of the past, the UK Govt puts the economy above ideology.
 
are you mad? Thats what Corbyn and Abbot want you to think - they forced Milliband who is Jewish to eat a bacon butty. You could see he was being forced as he didn't know how to do it ! Also don't underestimate the Marxists at BLM who are busy going around organising hits on their own leadership..................have I missed anybody out?
 
Absolutely massive deal possibly worth up to 0.02% of GDP (excluding farmers of course).
Massive.
PS It's not actually a deal yet it's just an 'agreement in broad terms' , so it's just another announcement about the same thing presumably to deflect attention away from the delay of freedom day by another four weeks and the disastrous G7 summit.
Watched a report the other day of an Australian farmer who basically said the deal was excellent for them and good for the UK as we’d still be able to get our expensive cuts for the those who could afford it.

She seemed very happy with the deal.
