Excellent News for Trade and Fisheries

could Norway look to moving away from the single market and making closer ties to the UK and our shared fisheries ?

Quote from the article: Trade and Industry Minister Iselin Nybø said: “We want to negotiate a comprehensive free trade agreement with the British, in which current trade is continued as much as possible.
Unfortunately, the agreement will not be able to replace the European Economic Area (EEA) agreement, and business will have to prepare to face new trade barriers when the UK leaves the single market.”

Meaning, it will always be less than we have aat present with the UK as EU member (till the end of transition).

Not if Norway leaves the single market because of it - read my first post properly. Ministers always cover all their bases in discussions like this - its called politics Solasch.

You should take your own advice. What do you not understand in:

Hi

The EEA have no intention of leaving and in particular have no intention of allowing the UK to join.

We are on our own.

Why on earth would we join the single market after we jusy left ???

I'd rather be on my own as a sovereign nation than part of that nightmare any day

Isn't that what you voted for as well ?

We just left the single market.

If you tried a bit harder you might understand what I meant about Norway leaving the single market and having closer ties to the UK.

Norway wants nothing to do with the UK.
Senior Norwegian politicians and business figures have rejected Norway-plus, the increasingly touted British cross-party plan for the UK to leave the EU but join*Norway*in a free trade trade area inside the EU single market.
They attacked the idea as “neither in Norway nor the UK’s interest”. The UK would need Norway’s permission to join its Efta club.

The rejection is a blow to an influential cross-party group https://www.theguardian.com/politics...us-brexit-plan
