And after Gecko masturbating his little willy silly over the news, the reality:

"But it is more about strategy than scale. With deals already in place with eight of the CPTPP members, joining may add as little as 0.1% to the size of the UK economy, and it's not clear yet what the UK will have to concede to get the deal, nor how quickly it will happen."


0.1%?

Not worth getting out of bed for. How much have we lost so far with the EU? How many millenia will need to pass by before we are back to square one?

The reason why the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union can be expressed in three words: ‘Take Back Control’. Most of the electorate arrived at the conclusion that the compromises & costs associted to be part of the EU club outweighed the benefits we recieved from it. Things came to a head when Cameron was effectively shunned in his attempt to reform a core principle namely Schengen.

Britain begins negotiations to join trans-Pacific trade deal
Britain will begin negotiations on Tuesday to join a trans-Pacific trade deal that it sees as crucial to its post-Brexit pivot away from Europe.

The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) removes 95% of tariffs between its members: Japan, Canada, Australia, Vietnam, New Zealand, Singapore, Mexico, Peru, Brunei, Chile and Malaysia.
Britain hopes to carve out a niche for itself in world trade as an exporter of premium consumer goods and professional services. Accession to the pact would supplement trade deals London is seeking, or has already agreed, with larger members.
"This part of the world is where Britain’s greatest opportunities lie. We left the EU with the promise of deepening links with old allies and fast-growing consumer markets beyond Europe," trade minister Liz Truss said. "It is a glittering post-Brexit prize that I want us to seize."

The CPTPP is not expected to lead to a surge in British exports. But it locks in market access, including for legal, financial and professional services sectors, and is seen by ministers as an important way to gain influence in a region where China is increasingly the dominant economic force.

Unlike the European Union, the CPTPP does not impose laws on its members, it does not aim to create a single market or a customs union, and it does not seek wider political integration.



"Super. Let's get cracking re-engaging with the Rest of the World on OUR terms, not those the EU decides for us"

I think you are the one who is insecure. Who would go to the lengths of taking a photograph of a Bloomberg Terminal and posting on ADVFN to a complete stranger. Very weird and a little concerning with regards to your mental health. :)

"sad to watch that you need to prove to everyone how successful you are"

I don't need to prove anything. Facts are facts.

Peter Miles22 Jun 2021 11:52AMThis just goes to show that ALL the remainers arguments come down to "I want things to stay the same". The fact is that things don't stay the same. They never have and they were never going to.  In fact with the EU chasing accelerating federalism had we stayed in things would probably have changed even more and not to our advantage.....

"You are constantly telling us you are far more wealthy than all of us, and you have done far more with your life."

I have and I have. You are the one who has a problem with that.

Now you are an old, bitter twisted male. Tired of getting well-acquainted with your hands. You are tired of looking at your wife laying there like a starfish. It is ever so sad.

LOL!

LOLOLOL, You are constantly telling us you are far more wealthy than all of us, and you have done far more with your life.

As I said, mental issues.

I see Minerve is going on about his tough guy credentials again.

Shame he's admitted in the past the only people he beats up are old age pensioners in Florida, and women at that!

[medieval blacksmith] 22/6/2021 11:35

They can't because there aren't any. Not for the working man. But they are never going to list them or admit their mistakes if you treat them like you do Minerve.
