Here's the unvarnished reality of yesterday's pharmaceutical trade deal with the USA: Labour caved in. Folded. Blew it.
To avoid Trump's tariffs, they have committed the NHS to paying very significantly more for new drugs ie all the lifesaving medicines of the future.

Actually when I was on my course today my mentor asked me to look at what geo political changes I could anticipate which might affect my business and I used brexit as a prime example. Suddenly cut off from millions of potential customers throughout the EU and overnight restricted to the UK market.
Brexit has ...

Increased inflation

Decreased investment
Increased red tape

Hurt musicians
Hurt business travellers
