So did the UK end their outrageous freedom of speech laws as directed?

Honest question. What does the UK make that we want or need? Or is this going to open up the US car and export market to the UK like never before?

Don't they barely drive anything other than Ford Focuses there as far as US cars go.

Rolls Royce makes a lot of aerospace components in the US.

As far as their very slow selling cars…..a couple of Cajuns with a pole barn and some Wal Mart tools can assemble everything Rolls sells in a year. Probably do it better than the Brits can too.

Can’t wait for the videos of a Ford F-350 trying to squeeze through the streets of a quaint little English village.

Beltching black smoke.

This is more about what they do to us.

The British tariff the shite out of our cars, steel, aluminum, food, and digital instruments.

Look for us to pull back on a lot of the tariffs we’ve threatened them with in exchange for opening up their market some more regarding some (not all) of our products listed above.

I’m pretty sure most of that is in proper Ireland not North occupied Ireland

If King George would have bent the knee 250ish years ago there’d be no America.

Ireland isn’t part of the UK (the north is, but they don’t have the pharma you’re referencing). The UK does have AstraZeneca and GSK.
