    Theresa May 'positive and optimistic' about new trade deals after Brexit

    Theresa May 'positive and optimistic' about new trade deals after Brexit

    http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/1...rexit/?ref=rss

    Theresa May has hailed the "powerful vote of confidence" in Britain Donald Trump and other world leaders have shown with their "strong desire" to strike new trade deals after Brexit.
    Theresa May reminds me of the sorry punters in “Dragon’s Den”.

    Dragon 1, “How many orders have you had so far?”

    Punter. “At lot of people have shown their interest.”

    Dragon 1, “Yes, but how many actual orders have you had so far?”

    Punter. “people like the product.”

    Dragon 2, “What is your projected turnover?.”

    Punter. “turnover? We want £500,000 for 1% of our company”

      With the way sterling is going, that will seem reasonable soon enough.
