Utter nonsense.



Why would the US need a trade agreement for those matters. A US firm can(and do) set up a company in this country and supply goods/services in the same way as anybody else can. No trade agreement required.


The nearest thing to something needing a trade agreement is providing medical supplies, which are currently supplied from outside the NHS anyway. Anything else would require a physical presence in the UK.
