A small FTA this one but adds to the impressive list. Liz Truss MP as Secretary of State for International Trade has done a great job the past year.

I'm not entirely sure given you can count the figures various ways, however *I think* Britain may now be ahead of the EU in FTAs signed.

All of these FTAs come into force in 26 days time when Britain is free from the EU Single Market + Customs Union.

Thoughts?

Britain and our former colony, Egypt, have signed an FTA.

FTAs now signed with a remarkable 55 countries, I have to admit even I didn't expect this many so quickly.

Can't wait to buy a bisexual warlord from Macedonia. I'm sure they do make other things there, but yeah Egypt is the bigger news I'd say
