STILL WAITING FOR THE HOWLS OF OPPOSITION TO THE UK JOINING THE CPTPP WITH CHINA

There was much money and thus noise (and crime) to get the UK out of the EU just 22 miles across the English Channel.

But within a few months of leaving the EU, and to the sound of silence, the UK quietly applied to join the CPTPP on t'other side of the world, and has been accepted. China applied to join a few months after the UK applied. China already dominates several trade agreements in that area.

But why the silence? 

Can we assume that Brits would prefer to trade with China than with the EU? Even though many claim that China is the most corrupt and evil nation on the planet?

Or is there more to Brexit than we're told?

For example, the EU banking and finance regulations?

Or China appointing The City of London as the banker of the Renminbi at Bilderberg 2011 and Bilderberg 2012?
