I love how it drops by over half when it gets to No. 2 LMAO

MURICA stronk

The US is big and has a large population, its just scale🤷

Off the bat the UK is in on the largest trade network on the planet (sorry eurocucks but USMCA is bigger than the EU).

wat

but thats only between US Mexico and canada?

UK isnt in that 😂

also, it isnt ratified

Yet

Sure but read through it. The standards set de jure make qualified producers Merican.

what do you mean by that? That the UK will be able to trade via it?

Basically yes they get access to the same product set via US suppliers in a FTA.

But the UK is not a part of the deal?

wat

Also, I mean come on they'll get a deal with Canada that'll put them within inches of an integrated market.

Even if they don't get deals from American and Canada (which they will) trading on WTO standard with all the other countries is a better deal than anything the EU is offering

idk, not my problem🤷

The trade deal hasn't even been negotiated yet, so how can you say that? @randomNPCno3

The ideal is: Free trade so that goods can move with as little friction as possible from A to B.

WTO adds tariffs in the way, increasing the costs of those goods

And the EU won't add tariffs if the UK does a hard Brexit?

The UK will be trading with the EU on WTO rules

Didn't you say like...3 hours ago that the EU would place tariffs on UK goods?

Yes

Through the WTO

or by "they" were you referring to the WTO?

Yeah, I should have been clearer

The WTO

Sounds like the EU would be throwing a bit of a tantrum

alternatively, sounds like a spiteful GF

🤷🏻

Spiteful for sure, but justified tbh

How so?

We didn't honour our agreements

Which ones?

Why should we be treaded any differently?

WTO rules don't regulate or tax you. Pretty easy to make up the difference.

In regards to the 'divorce bill'

how so?

Currently as a member, we need to keep paying into the budget
