United States-United Kingdom Summary of Specific Negotiating Objectives

This is effectively a request for UK to remove trade barriers for the US, without them opening theirs in return. It offers no incentive for UK trade.

There are no real benefits outlined for the UK, nothing about Financial services.

There is mention of removing barriers on agriculture, pricing in the NHS, it also wants no trade deal with China.

More importantly though is the removal of barriers in regard to US exports. The big issue with this is if we align our standards with that of the US, then it will inevitably make it more difficult for us to negotiate with the EU - who will expect their standards to be met when we seek to negotiate with them after Brexit.

From one 'protectionist racket' frying pan and into another 'protectionist racket' fire. The difference being, that the UK, under the banner of the EU, starts with a much better negotiating position with the US due to the relative strength of the market. The UK is in a much weaker position.
Posted that some time ago...it's a terrifying prospect.
 
May's face after explaining the nhs trade deal question to DufUS. It was like 'we' re supposed to be avoiding this stuff' and a bit of 'it was him, not me'.

Christ.
 
The door has been opened, and the true motives of the whole sorry affair revealed. The connections between farage, johnson, barron murdoch trump and banks, the subtle softening of the british right wing press to the trump administration. What a shameful episode it has been.
Past tense, like, it's over now?!
 


Of course the American the visitors want the NHS carved up by the free market, its best value for money policy is a real ball ache for American pharmaceuticals, there is money to be made from being ill, and they know people with the money will pay lots of money for a loved one or themselves to be better or live a little longer. The NHS is a socialist principle, which currently stands, puts people it cares for ahead of shareholders Investors, which the free market cannot tolerate.
