No matter how relatively big or small the parties are, the freer the trade, the more everybody benefits.

Such a deal would be both easier to conclude and more beneficial to both countries than one with the Europeans trying to ring-fence their nationalised industries etc. <br /><br />And then hopefully we can quickly do another deal with New Zealand, to cut the cost of some of those yummy Sauvignon Blancs the kiwis are so good at making.
