What's that got to do with it ?
Hedge funds and import tarrifs are two completely different things. Nobody speculates on tarrifs.

Luckily the UK does not depend on the trade deal with the USA because the future is so wide open and the UK is about to "unleash its potential". It will "prosper mightily" through its "unfettered access to the EUs SM". And so forth.
You know all those promises of UKs gov concerning the sunny uplands have to believed by the people. Imagine there was only the slightest chance of all that being a giant hoax...

When it comes to single markets, the EU is more dependant on ours than we are of its.

By the way, I did not know that the French were my friends, but okay. How does begging the UK for financial support of the tunnel (if that should be true) stop the UK in succeeding? I fail to see that.
"We continue to be taken advantage of by the EU in their forlorn attempts to hold us back from the success we are presently beginning to demonstrate in, for example, rapid successes in foreign trade agreements and the efficient application of Covid vaccinations."
I didn't say that they were trying to hold us back specifically from making foreign trade agreements. How could they?
I said the successes we are beginning to demonstrate. I was speaking generally. They are doing that is any way they can, including going back on the agreements we have with them.
I cited the foreign trade agreements, for example, to show that we are more efficient than them, bearing in mind the length of time it takes them to achieve such agreements, presumably because they are mired in paperwork and the necessity of trying to get 27 different countries to agree anything.
