Yes why in the world should we not listen to an international trade negotiator who's negotiated deals worth billions. Who could be against trade.
Can you just break that down a bit for me please?
Do you mean
1) That man is probably right about the whole international trade thing
but also
2) the doomsday scenario he paints for a no deal brexit that would actually be good news in your opinion

?
or am i misunderstanding your post (srs question)

It is basically a trade agreement that allows European companies and business access to 320 million new consumers in the USA, and allows European consumers access to new products, cheaper and more efficiently from North America.
Lovely.

EDIT: From stuff he's posted on his facebook getthebrexitfacts is/was his blog. So directly bigging up TTIP.

EDIT: Some more crap from this prick
Today, the all hallowed Jeremy Corbyn will make a very Trump-esque speech to the UK manufacturers association EEF.

"Build in Britain" he will cheer along the lines of 'America First'. I do not joke with you. He will today be making a speech in Birmingham where he will speak with a bunch of expert manufacturers and show his total and utter ignorance of geology and geography. His plan is to stop using cheap foreign Labour and instead use cheap British Labour for manufacturing.

He says that the crash in the GBP actually helps manufacturers and Brexit will be good for Britain.

He fails to understand that as a result of geology we are a tiny island and simply don't have the raw materials to extract from the ground to make the parts we need to manufacture. These basics need to be imported and the crash in the GBP makes everything we import more expensive before you even add new tariffs on them. This pushes up the cost of manufacture in the UK and therfore pushes up the sell price of our finished goods for export making the UK uncompetitive on the world stage.

As a result of geography we are a tiny island on the edge of the largest economic bloc on the planet where we currently trade freely.

By leaving this bloc we are making trade in manufactured goods more difficult, more complicated and more expensive which too increases the cost of production in the UK. When you increase the overheads of a business that business needs to improve efficiencies which usually means laying off staff, paying lower wages and making employees work harder.

Jeremy Corbyn will today look like a laughing stock and this could be the final nail in his coffin for anyone that has the capacity to actually think for themselves.

The four pillars of the EU that are essentially bound together. The freedom to.move Goods, Services, Capital and Workers.

Take a lorry travelling to England carrying a truckload of car parts. It picks up some parts from Spain and then travels through France picking up some more. It then heads to England where it heads to Sunderland to build Nissan Qashqai 4x4s.

The Parts in the back of the lorry are 'goods'.
The lorry driver is providing a Service.
People in the UK, Spain and France are buying and selling the goods.
And people from Spain and France are helping build the Qashqai in Sunderland.

Imagine trying to take away one of the pillars. Without a driver providing a service then you'd have a truck magically driving from Hogwarts to Middle Earth to make the delivery.

Without Services the truck would be uninsured, unlicensed and unregulated.

Without the Goods there'd be no point in driving an empty truck around.

Without Capital there'd be no way of paying for the parts or receiving them.

The 4 founding principles of the European Union make trade easier, therfore trade is more successful, therfore more jobs are created and more jobs means more tax income to Governments to spend on health, welfare, local councils, schools etc.

The EU will never give up these four founding principles and yet the UK Government are demanding that the EU break them up just to facilitate a pack of lies told to the UK electorate. Folks it's never going to happen and the UK are headed for a cliff edge hard Brexit with no deal. I hope you've stocked up on essentials, if not yet then soon.
I always did like Justine Greening...
I don't care who you vote for in the next General Election, if it's a LibDem like Tom Brake, a Tory like Anna Soubry, a Green like Caroline Lucas or Labour like David Lammy..... if they are backing remain in your constituency then back them right back! If your MP is supporting Brexit then sack them.
Great. A General Election where our two main parties are giving us exactly the same option for the country? It's gotta be time to consider the LibDems? No?
THIS, this is why the Liberal Democrats exist.... to better people's lives..... not just for self serving short term political gain but to make everyones lives better, it's what sets us apart from the other main political parties who are simply in it for themselves. When was the last time you saw either of the Labservatives parties act in the National interest above any political cost to their own party?

LibDem thru and thru.

Can anyone think of a single positive policy that's come out of Westminster since the LibDems left Government in 2015?

I can name dozens of positive ones from 2010-2015.

UK Government. Better WITH LibDems in it than without.

Firstly we have to accept the fact that 50% of the world and our country are of below average intelligence, this is plain and unarguable.

Traditionally the lower educated and less intelligent have lower interest in politics and are less likely to vote. Credit where credit is due tho folks, we may not like it but the extremist right and the extremist left have found a way to activate the less intelligent and get them out to vote and shout from the rooftops on social media for their cause.
.....
The readers of facts are less likely to have voted for Brexit and those that voted for Brexit are less educated that those that voted for remain.
......
How we fix this I don't know unless we lower the base rate of average intelligence and somehow breed smarter people as a nation?
So not just a pro-TTIP, LibDem cunt but also a supporter of eugenics.

The thing that says the balance of trade got better by £7.7 billion and things improved with Canada and China? Have you seen the graph? Look at the graph on this link.

United Kingdom Balance of Trade | 1955-2018 | Data | Chart | Calendar

In the three months to May 2018, the trade deficit widened GBP 5.0 billion to GBP 8.3 billion. This was due to a GBP 5.0 billion widening of the trade in goods deficit, resulting from a combination of falling goods exports (GBP 3.1 billion) and rising goods imports (GBP 1.9 billion). Services imports and exports mostly offset each other as both increased by around GBP 0.5 billion, resulting in a relatively small decline in the trade in services surplus.

Your exports need to go up by more than your imports for it to mean anything. You can't just say things are good in these 3 places and not mention the other 50 places.

They're saying it is a good thing but they are lying.

And I already mentioned much earlier in the thread that exports would increase for a period because of the £'s drop in value (which is a double fuck because your imports cost more...and you're importing more).

You think those countries are helping us out?
 
Graham Hughes was born in Liverpool in 1979. He attended Blackmoor Park School and the Blue Coat School Liverpool
Blue Coat School Liverpool said:
Founded originally as a refuge for the city’s poor, The Blue Coat School has blossomed into a school that achieves the highest academic standards for which it is renowned across the city, the North West and nationally. Today, as Liverpool’s only grammar school we are rich in diversity. Our students come from all backgrounds and they enjoy, value and celebrate their differences and individuality. At Blue Coat, it is not just OK to be different, it’s great to be different.
The Blue Coat School is a mixed selective school for students aged 11 – 18, which converted to Academy status on 1st March 2012
The main facilities we have available for hire are:
  • Sports Hall
  • Dance Studio
  • And for other activities:
  • Shirley Hall
  • Dining Hall (with or without tables)
  • Classrooms
  • Outdoor cricket nets.
So just your average school then.

Since then, Hughes has been a vocal advocate of remaining in the European Union, leading and emceeing the "People's March For Europe" in September 2017.[21] He stood as a candidate for the Liberal Democrats in the 2018 local government elections for his home ward of Knotty Ash, Liverpool and came third with just over 6% of the vote.[22]
A huge 329 people voting for the wanker. Still at least he managed to get his mum and mates to vote for him in the 2017 GE.
 
You're not going to encourage foreign investment with VAT or CoTax increases though.

Or worker's rights etc.

Is this the height of a liberals insults? There has been nothing but doom and gloom from liberals in the media, condescending crap at that. You know- were rich and you are poor and it's going to be worse for you poor uneducated upstarts, you've ruined our money streams etc,- do you expect people to sit back and listen to the same old shit, day in and day out? If you think i sound like a right wing head fund manager or Boris Johnson because of my post, then you are a fucking idiot. You shouldn't be allowed out of your bedroom you fool.
