The European Union seem to care more about their failed political globalist scheme than the workers in their countries as they seem unwilling to re-open negotiations with the UK. No deal is not anyone’s first option and that includes Boris Johnson of whom has made very clear he’ll try to negotiate major changes to the withdrawal agreement or negotiate a new deal entirely.
The UK government shouldn’t wait around for the EU to make concessions and should immediately get on a plane and head to the United States. Donald Trump in contrast to Barack Obama has been incredibly supportive of brexit and has made it explicitly clear that the US are ready whenever the UK are, for a free trade agreement. A UK, US free trade deal would be spectacular economic wise which would give an incredible cushion for businesses in the event of a No Deal Brexit.
Under EU law it is unlawful to create your own free trade agreements as an individual country, however the UK and US can agree a deal ready to sign as soon as we have withdrawn from the European Union on the 31st of October. The EU seem childish in their efforts to force the UK government in pushing a dead withdrawal agreement through the house of commons and not making concessions that would benefit their own citizens. If the EU don’t want to sit at the negotiating table then we should go to a country that does, the United States of America.
Donald Trump made it clear that he rates Boris Johnson very highly and is happy to work with him. Donald Trump has never spoke ill of Boris Johnson which will help the UK when it comes to getting a free and fair trade agreement. It’s time for the UK to get in gear and mitigate the short term impact that a no deal brexit will bring as we now only have 2 and a half months until we depart from the EU. Boris, time is of the essence, get on a plane to the United States as soon as possible.
The United States have already got their negotiating team ready and with the narrative of ‘America First’ we need a Britain first negotiating position to give us the best possible outcome of this trade agreement. However if both sides of the negotiation act in good faith there is no reason why we couldn’t come to a simple, sensible, free trade agreement that benefits both sides.
