Congrats UK

2020-01-24 08:01:51 UTC  

So Brexit is officially done from February

2020-01-24 08:02:05 UTC  

Yes and no

2020-01-24 08:02:32 UTC  

Oh yeah, nuances of political decisions

2020-01-24 08:02:42 UTC  

The UK will no longer be considered apart of the EU as of February 1st

2020-01-24 08:03:12 UTC  

But they have different trade and logistic issues to handle over the course of this year

2020-01-24 08:03:45 UTC  

The US will most likely be sought out for trade expansions

2020-01-24 08:04:21 UTC  

And it is possible that they will become dependents on our oil and natural gas

2020-01-24 08:04:38 UTC  

But unsure of the probability

2020-01-24 08:04:56 UTC  

There are too many people in the UK and not enough suitable land for them to self-sustain.

2020-01-24 08:05:00 UTC  

Trade is a necessity.

2020-01-24 08:05:01 UTC  

There's a lot of speculation regarding how they want to do trade

2020-01-24 08:05:08 UTC  

It'll be interesting to see how they solve it.

2020-01-24 08:05:14 UTC  

Indeed

2020-01-24 08:05:29 UTC  

If they solve it.

2020-01-24 08:05:41 UTC  

There's the possibility they just flushed their green and pleasant land down the toilet.

2020-01-24 08:06:23 UTC  

Trump has stated multiple times that he wants to open up a new trade agreement with the UK

2020-01-24 08:06:28 UTC  

The obvious choice is America, non EU allies.

2020-01-24 08:06:44 UTC  

But then there's concerns of the product getting to the UK fresh and viable.

2020-01-24 08:07:01 UTC  

That shouldn't be an issue

2020-01-24 08:07:11 UTC  

Shouldn't, could.

2020-01-24 08:07:20 UTC  

America has the logistical capability

2020-01-24 08:07:31 UTC  

Yeah true enough.

2020-01-24 08:07:43 UTC  

Especially with fuel and agriculture

2020-01-24 08:07:46 UTC  

Also, it's not like the EU is going to want to just stop selling to the UK altogether.

2020-01-24 08:08:05 UTC  

Just a little extra tax and shit.

2020-01-24 08:08:17 UTC  

Yea, but will the UK want to have open trade with the EU

2020-01-24 08:08:27 UTC  

I mean... yes?

2020-01-24 08:08:37 UTC  

Or limited trade

2020-01-24 08:08:39 UTC  

The UK has product it wants to sell and product it wants to buy.

2020-01-24 08:08:46 UTC  

Some of that product is European.

2020-01-24 08:08:56 UTC  

Which America is willing to purchase in mass

2020-01-24 08:09:22 UTC  

It's definitely going to be an interesting year for the UK and America

2020-01-24 08:09:37 UTC  

There's also british cultural exports. I imagine there's British expatriates who still want to watch their homegrown TV.

2020-01-24 08:10:03 UTC  

Definitely plausible

2020-01-24 08:10:28 UTC  

And America just isn't going to buy 100% of the UK's exports. There's Scots to sell scotch to after all.

2020-01-24 08:10:52 UTC  

Scots are apart of the UK

2020-01-24 08:10:58 UTC  

Hahaa

2020-01-24 08:10:58 UTC  

Yes that was the joke.

2020-01-24 08:11:01 UTC  

They make the Scotch.

2020-01-24 08:11:04 UTC  

Then drink it.
