Therefore, striking a deal with the EU becomes ever more important with the US out of reach. Expect more rolling-over on BoJo's part.
I think you should ignore Hugh. He's very selective about his point and does not pay attention to the long list of countries with whom we are making progress.

A bit out of date, but as Hugh doesn't like Wikipedia when I quote it:

Other than that, yes, striking a deal with the EU is important.
