How to do a trade deal with the UK
How to do a trade deal with the UK
Australia did a trade deal with the UK. How did the trade negotiations go? Now we all know you ask for more than you expect and negotiate to a compromise. So how was this settled so quickly?
Liz Truss - "So what do you want?"
Australians - "Tariff free access for all our meat, even hormone treated"
Liz Truss - "OK"
Australians - " Tariff free access for wheat and fruit?"
Liz Truss - "OK"
Australians - quick huddle and then - "Tariff free access for all other agricultural products, and coal"
Liz Truss - "OK"
Australians - " I'm sorry, but we cannot give you Tariff free access on all the items requested at section 2 and section 3, subsections i, ii and iii, because the trades unions wouldn't accept that"
Liz Truss - " Oh dear"
Australians - "OK we will drop the tariff on Hob-Nobs?"
Liz Truss - "It's a deal!"
Apparently The New Zealand government is now revising their negotiating position......

Bullsh*t rick
There was NEVER any Hob Nobs tariff for them to "drop"
Rumour has it, she did arrange at least ONE draw in the Ashes series though

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
The details may be nonsense, But Liz cut out her Civil service advisers and just said yes to everything they asked for. Her advisers were pretty stunned, hence the leak. The reality is the content of the deal was irrelevant, just a tick box exercise for Brexit - we can do our own trade deals - nothing said about then being good for the UK. The Japanese deal - same as the EU deal with Japan, except we can export about 100 kilo's of Blue cheese a year.

Another classic " get a life , living here will not effect us anyway ."
Unless of course you have a UK based income/pension/pay taxes/own a property or have any other finances linked to the UK economy ..... but there again I'm sure none of the Brits here would fall into that category

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
There is at least one member of this forum who not only has been involved at multiple levels with UK trade deals (apart from final negotiations) but also has many years of knowledge, experience and research of exporting outside of Europe and negotiating UK export contracts directly with overseas businesses and government agencies.
This involvement included meetings and discussions with those who could provide direct input to the process such as:
• UK Members of Parliament.
• UK Government Ministries.
It also included active participation in:
• UK Trade Associations.
• Specialist groups that covered and researched the very real difficulties of exporting (e.g. the minefields of export financing and the multiplicity of differing commercial rules and regulations).
However, all this was back at a time when UK Governments would listen to and act on the advice of experts (i.e. those with actual knowledge and experience).
It was also at a time when UK Governments had a pretty firm grasp of the basics of Trade Deals:
1. Trade deals helping UK economy & businesses = GOOD
2. Trade deals screwing UK economy & businesses = BAD
.
Ashamed to be English since 23rd June 2016 when England voted for racism & economic suicide.
Disgusted that the UK is “governed” by a squalid bunch of economically illiterate, self-serving, sleazy and corrupt neo-fascists.

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
3. Trumpeting we got a trade deal - any sort of a trade deal - done***, so Brexit must be a huge success = ABSOLUTELY BLOODY FANTASTIC
*** Note, it is only an "agreement in principle" at this stage.

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
I see Nissan has just announced a 1bn GBP investment at their Sunderland car plant which will create more than 6000 direct & indirect jobs.
I guess it’s not really a trade deal but I couldn’t be bothered starting a new thread & its goods news nonetheless

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
^ Just heard this on the steam radio. Isn't Sunderland the linchpin of the Labor red wall and whose 61% leave Brexit vote created the £'s huge crash? Although there's no mention of any Tory sweeteners, this looks like a nice reward, no?

^ If I’m honest, I haven’t really read much detail I saw the article on my morning read & thought it would bring a nice bit of balance for the moaners & haters that usually manage to miss feelgood stories

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
Ah THAT's how you get a trade deal .... give over 100,000,000 GBP taxpayers money to Nissans "Partner" (China) ........ that should go down well in certain parts of Tory Party

Re: How to do a trade deal with the UK
An interesting view on the Nissan “Investment” from Phil Moorhouse.
- Video title:
Taxpayer Bribes Used to Simulate Brexit Jobs
- Video description:
As a result of brexit, the UK car manufacturing sector has collapsed. But news of a new Nissan car battery plant has brexit supporters thinking it somehow backs up their claims, despite it still representing a huge net loss of jobs for the sector and the town of Sunderland. But it's even worse than that as Boris Johnson has used taxpayer money to bribe Nissan to set the plant up.
- Phil Moorhouse is a science teacher, socialist, Pro-EU, Yorkshireman, political commentator on YouTube and a former resident of Scunthorpe.
