Kemi Badenoch hailed Britain's agreement to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership .But critics say it will only add 0.08% to gross national product over 10 years and question why Britain has been so keen to join a Pacific-based agreement, having left a trading bloc on its doorstep in the shape of the EU.
Pushed to provide a percentage of growth to back that claim up, she said: "I don’t have figures like that, and I'm always suspicious of these forecasts. They are constantly revised. "You can look at the potential, if we don’t use the deal properly, then the figures won't be good. If we use them well, they will be very good."Donald Trump parties at Mar-a-Lago mansion just hours after being told he faces '30 charges' over Stormy Daniels money
That’ll be another Tory minister “winging it” on a PR stunt then. GeneralElectionNow
Hurrah. We are all rich again
Hint. There is a trading bloc of 27 countries just over 20 miles away.
April fool?
Remember folks maths is raceiss..... Bit of a problem when it comes to calculating diversity quotas, so good job that expecting positive outcomes from decisions is also raceiss.... 'Keep doing the same thing and one day you will get the outcome you desire.' The Sciunce...
Grass skirts will never take off.
Because it’s all smoke screens and mirrors.
Abolish IR35

Except that we already have trade agreements with all but two of the countries involved. More spin from Sunak. He must think we are buttoned up the back.
Surprised?
Future trade deals are of little immediate concern for LBC's on benefits workshy audience.
If it's that good then the EU will probably be after a deal or already have one so we'll have just spent a load of time and money on something we could have had anyway.
EEC had no numbers to offer either when it began.

Standard Brexit mantra Lots of waffle, soundbites, ifs, buts, maybes and fantasy. Don’t ask me to back up any of it with any data you Remoaner
Imagine the shock when she finds out on the Governments own figures it’s worth just 0.08% (£1.8 Billion) to UK GDP in 15 years contrasted with a 4% (£100 Billion) hit from Brexit! Though I'm betting she knew this. Just too embarrassed to say it.
KemiBadenoch dare not come armed with figures because we all know what we’ve lost from leaving the EU. The comparisons are startling and not conducive to selling the deal
We used to call this stuff lies
“Look it’s just better ok and that’s a Badenoch promise”
Much as I disliked the old, real Conservative party, at least they were on top of their brief. This lot seem to think their job is merely to throw out soundbites. Things like preparation and actual work would appear to be beneath them.
Ah the classic “you don’t need to know , just believe what we say “
When did we get asked about this partnership? When did parliament?
Misleading tweet and headline. What she actually said: 'I don’t have figures like that, and I'm always suspicious of these forecasts. They are constantly revised.'
If you are having problems with numbers today. Chris Shaw has the numbers his Tweet today
She did mention, as an afterthought, that the deal will flourish in 2050. Better late than never
She is like the worst ever door to door salesman
Yeah, we will be able to sell our marmalade to Peru now!
In layman's terms a 'shitshower'
She said that about Brexit.
Well it’s April fools day tomorrow
The remainer comments are gold dust. Those tears taste so sweet, I love it.
A total and absolute irrelevance!
The uk has nothing to offer any big business
As she knows the square root of feck all...bluster and shite she knows
0.08% or £1.8bn over 10yrs and we were already doing trade deals with the same countries before brexit.
Another promoted beyond her capabilities.
For every 100£ the British Economy grows…. This contribution is worth 8p.…. Well done all. cptpp
biased as usual from Labour broadcasting corporation. Still bitter about brexit.
