Trade deals aren't easy to do. You don't just 'sign a trade deal'. It's a series of tariffs, laws, regulations that all need to be agreed and enacted. I wouldn't take anything seriously until serious talks are underway and even if you get one you need to make sure it's good. No point having a trade agreement where their is easy access to our market for the Americans but lots of exemptions when we want to sell to them. They also have a population of 318 million or our 64 million so advantage them there.
