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....)

Often appears at the local farmers market, next to the ostrich burgers. Like that...also lamb-chops, they are in short supply around here. We got cheese. Some excess since the Russian sanctions....

Onły France makes fucking superb wine. From everywhere else it is adequate.

Spot on about the blonds though.

If the UK can manage free trade deals with all its former colonies, they should be alright.
