"This could explain why the daily death toll in England has remained higher than in other UK nations"

Population of Wales?

Population of England?

Demographic breakdown of England?

Who has the global City? Wales? England?

The death tolls are different for obvious reasons!!!!!

"I may be the only true poster here who is bullish for the country"

Usual drivel from you I see.

Currency speculating isnt in the same bracket as buying hard assets such as Agricultural land.

Amazed you push these lies of yours frankly.

If it were just the fish, a deal would be done in a blink.


It's a lot more than that!

What I do not like about the current American administration is the way they use blackmail by linking one issue with another.

Not that we in the UK have not got a history or tough negotiation.
Our most famous quid quo pro has made some angry, but from the wealth standpoint it was the deal of the century.

'Give us in the UK a free hand in all financial matter via the City of London, the financial capital of the World, and you can fish in our waters.'

An industry of billions in exchange for some fish.

Respect..a great deal, but Farage roused his simple minded followers to a fever pitch and turned this great deal into a vote winner for Brexit.

What I do not like about the current American administration is the way they use blackmail by linking one issue with another.

We will tax your motor vehicles if you introduce a digital tax on US internet giants.
If you use Chinese 5g equipment we will exclude you from security cooperation.
Unless you take our food USA standard we shall not conclude a trade deal at all.

The recent leaked documents during the election, supposedly hacked by the Russians, showed that shocking demand;
If you want a trade deal then US services to your NHS must be included.

these are shocking developments, all explained by ken Clarke at the time.

I agree with that max.
The EU. Common agricultural policy was designed to subsidise smaller French and German farmers.
Farmers in the UK benefited from this policy also.

No one questions the quality of EU. food or the need for food security, our most basic need.
But the subsidies have sometimes distorted production with butter mountains, milk lakes and the likes.
..buy we can't all earn vast sums by pushing money around in the City, food is important.

Carefuls private Frazier 'were doomed'

[maxidi] 20/7/2020 09:09

careful.

If we stayed in the EU it will be a lot worse. We will be forced to give up all sorts of farmed goods so as to help the other farmers in the EU. I could see that coming a mile off.

[maxidi] 20/7/2020 09:04

careful.

People will buy what they want and I for one will buy British as much as I can, so oranges/bananas are out. I don't eat meat so that helps.
What's wrong with buying British meat? Just look for the red tractor and buy that!

Sorry not me on Santander...show me?...and I do like bank shares...but it is losing its appeal too often every few years...

[careful] 20/7/2020 08:41

Redwood argues above that the UK will be able to insist on higher food standards in any future trade deal.

He does not get it as usual.
We shall take what the Americans demand us to take, ordered to shut up, pay up, and go away.

The priority will be the needs American farmers.
They will not tolerate insubordination post Brexit.

You do not like bank stocks ingeneral but I see you on most bank stock boards even SANTANDER- BNC. LOL.

The Trade Bill and trade dealsBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: JULY 20, 2020I have received copies of a couple of lobby letters being sent round asking me to support proper Parliamentary scrutiny of trade deals. Let me put minds at rest. Parliament has debated trade more thoroughly and more often in the last four years than in the four decades of our membership of the EU.Parliament is debating trade yet again today as we continue our scrutiny of the government's legislative framework for our post EU trade policy. We were never offered primary legislation or extensive scrutiny of the many tariffs and rules imposed during our membership of the EU. There was of course little point in Parliament debating the tariffs and controls imposed on us during those years, as they resulted from directly acting regulations of the Commission, or from Directives decided by qualified majority vote which we might have lost or agreed to reluctantly.Any future trade deal will be discussed, examined and debated extensively by Parliament. It may well need legislation which will have to go through both Houses with more extensive scrutiny and with votes for those who dislike any such Agreement. There is no need today to vote for an amendment which requires more scrutiny as there will be more scrutiny. It is not a good idea for Parliament to try to fix its own future agenda in law. The truth is if a majority of MPs want something to be debated or wish to stop something the government is proposing, they will do so. Governments can only enter trade treaties or make other decisions all the time they command a majority. To continue to command such a majority they need to persuade enough MPs on each measure that they deserve support.Some rightly argue we need high animal welfare standards. One of the advantages of coming out of the EU is we can set higher standards, as we were usually arguing for higher standards within the EU against considerable resistance from some countries. It took longer than we wanted to improve conditions for hens, and to ease veal crate conditions for example. It is strange his sone people think it is both critical we have a Free Trade Agreement with the EU and equally critical we do not have one with the USA. The truth is FTAs with both could be helpful if they are good deals, but we can trade without one If necessary as we have had to with the USA for all our time in the EU.
