I see all the Remainers piling in on OB. Not one of them has said that the opportunity raised by every trade deal now lies in the hands of British business.

Badenoch sent me an email which sort of makes my point:

After 21 months of negotiations, we have just signed our biggest trade deal since leaving the EU – becoming the first European country to join the most dynamic trading bloc in the world, now worth £11 trillion.

With 500 million people, tariff free trade with CPTPP countries will boost our economy by billions, support thousands of new British jobs, and drive economic growth in all corners of our United Kingdom.

From beverage producers in Scotland, to machinery manufacturers in Wales and car manufacturers in Northern Ireland, businesses across the country will benefit from free trade with 11 dynamic countries expected to make up the majority of global growth in the future.

Despite the naysayers, we are delivering on the benefits of Brexit. Labour and their social media supporters will try and talk this deal down and claim it isn’t of real benefit.

This is their usual declinism. Only the Conservatives have confidence in the UK and understand what the vision of a global modern Britain would mean. We will create new opportunities for British business.
