That was a good listen. Sounds like a Brexit plan is desperately needed. If the hang up is on quota of goods the plan should include a proposal to have a quota reasonable for the UK's size. I imagine if the quota were reasonable you would have the US on board quickly as Donald Trump is pretty anti-EU and pro-trade. Then the others would follow. I may be making this too simple. |
Yes Trump is Anti-EU, the USA's main allies.
Why? because he doesnt care about anyone but himself, and only marginally the US.
Remember the "America First" chants?
Why would you expect the UK to get good deals with the americans? Look at what happend with Steel Imports, trump is clearly giveing them unfair trade deals, to favor the US work force, in the hopes that it could lead to better conditions for the US steel industry.
The UK would likely face that sort of thing, when dealing with the US, they wouldnt be given as good trade deals as they had with the EU.
Not to mention the US market competition is probably tough, the UK wouldnt just be able to recover all they lost, from being part of the single market, by dealing more with the US.
Its a like putting a plaster, on a gun shot wound...... the amount of help it gives, is just too little.
