Re: Another 'Oven-Ready Brexit' Shambles!
Joe Biden signals he has no interest in signing US-UK trade agreement
Ministers have given up on signing a trade agreement with the US before the next election, after the Biden administration signalled it had no interest in agreeing one.
British officials had been hoping to agree a “foundational trade partnership” before both countries head to the polls in the next 12 months, having already decided not to pursue a full-blown free trade agreement.
However, sources briefed on the talks say they are no longer taking place, thanks to reluctance among senior Democrats to open US markets to more foreign-made goods. The story was first revealed by Politico.
Over 7 years since the referendum.
Almost 4 years since the UK left the EU
Over 42 months since the trade deal talks supposedly started.
Result? Nothing!
Amazing he's still alive, he's asleep half the time but still hanging on, he won't be there forever and things will move on ..........
