    We very much need to set up such trade deals and with the government support it reduces the risk to British companies. The people who voted for Brexit must have known we would have to make such deals.

    That said, I am certain it would not have happened if CFK was still president.

    I'm quite interested in exporting Scotch Mist and possibly the Fog on the Tyne, because apparently it's all mine...;-)

    @ Voice Hahaha.

    I see the ghosts of senile old white men are haunting the minus button on the board. No balls to post though.

    Can't help but feel that this might not be the smartest of moves. Have they actually paid for ARA Hércules yet?

    Don't you find it funny? They down-click no matter the content of the post or if we know they would have agreed with the sentiment. I guess that is because they are senile. It gives me a laugh every time.

    There aren't 6 of them; I would say there are just a couple on a regular basis but with multiple accounts. The trade deals are essential and I have no issue with them in principle.

    Yes, definitely multiple accounts at work operated by one or two. When they post they try hard to sound different but always fail. What a pointless waste of time to have to run several accounts just to appear as if someone agrees with one's opinion.
