We export ham. Ken Ham. Still haven't found a market for Abbotts, though. Anyone wanna buy a slightly used Prime Minister? Good as new. Never as much as put his brain into gear. Free Bishop to go with him. She comes with bonus helicopter. No bull.

UK offered Brexit free trade deal with Australia

Australia has called for a free trade deal with Britain following its exit from the European Union.
Theresa May described the move as "very encouraging" and insisted it showed Brexit can work for Britain.

In a phone call to the new PM, her Australian counterpart Malcolm Turnbull said he urgently wanted to open up trading between the two countries.
Liam Fox, the new International Trade Secretary, said he was already "scoping about a dozen free trade deals".
But Britain cannot sign any deals while it is still an EU member.

Mrs May said: "I have been very clear that this government will make a success of our exit from the European Union.
"One of the ways we will do this is by embracing the opportunities to strike free trade deals with our partners across the globe. It is very encouraging that one of our closest international partners is already seeking to establish just such a deal."

(continued, anglosphere is a thing....)
Doesn't surprise me as the UK has the whole commonwealth to trade with, fuck the EU, pinko commie twats.
We should be MOST skeptical of ideas we like because we are sufficiently skeptical of ideas that we don't like. Penn Jillette.
