I have to say I’m impressed, though - doing that full time whilst living under a bridge…

If that happens, all hell needs to break loose!
The NI Protocol may well remain as a can kicking exercise for some time as there is much else for governments to do in the current perfect storm scenario.

There was the Dutch matter that I posted yesterday.
On the US Free Trade Deal, Johnson has stated that whilst he gets on with Biden far better than his predecessor, a US-UK free trade deal is not a priority for the Biden administration.

Living under bridges is frowned upon now, leading to a surplus of homeless trolls . . . apparently that's why they 'invented' Twitter, so they'd have a home to go to

Perhaps this one tickles your fancy? It's in Johnson metaphors, of course!
Quote:
“As we go to Washington our relations with the USA are about as good as they have been at any time in decades,” Johnson told reporters on his flight to the US. “When we last flew out a couple of years ago we had all sorts of pebbles in the shoe.”
|
Quote:
Asked about his personal relationship with the president, Johnson said: “Look, I’ve only had long conversations with Joe Biden either on the phone or at Carbis Bay and then Nato.
“It hasn’t been a relationship that’s been very long in gestation. But it’s terrific, I mean genuinely terrific. We see eye-to-eye on all sorts of things. Have we bonded over any particular thing? He’s a bit of a train nut, as am I. He likes trains which is a good thing.”

Re: Britain outside the EU
Interesting view of the U.K./USA trading relationship, from the USA side (this guy is on the House Ways & Means Committee, which deals with Trade) - it’s from a BBC2 Newsnight interview.

Re: Britain outside the EU
I think 2.5% is on the high side. However, that aside the AUSAUK shows that you don’t need “trade” agreements to agree deals that will benefit the economy. Just Deals.

Re: Britain outside the EU
BP now announced that some fuel stations will close due to the hgv driver shortage. And before the usual suspects chime in with ‘it’s not Brexit it’s the pandemic’ the managing director of Britains biggest haulage was on bbc news the other day and quite categorically stated that the pandemic had only highlighted the issue and that the primary cause was indeed our departure from the EU

Isn't AUSAUK primarily about defence and not trade?

Yeah but who needs experts opinion, bet there was a failed politician or "comedian" tirelessly rebuttalling with alternate facts just for balance
