You mentioned an incorrect assumption about the EU that is no longer relevant because we are leaving the EU. As I've said before, white noise.

I think that between us, we are pretty well versed on TTIP. It allows the U.S to bid on state run contracts. Most EU countries opted out of auctioning off their medical systems and you probably aren't aware that the EU gave them the power to do this. Cameron, on the other hand decided our NHS was not off limits to the Americans.

You do know that Trump has stated he will make a trade deal with the Uk? Do you think it will be a nice gentle fair-handed reciprocal deal or an opportunistic ruthless agreement forced upon the weaker partner (the UK) that will maximise opportunities for American business? Just because he won't call the deal a TTIP doesn't mean that it won't resemble a TTIP in every detail.

When May was in Washington she had long talks with John Kerry about a similar deal but thus far, she's keeping the secrets of that deal close to her chest.

I would bet on what some of this deal entails.
The auctioning off of the NHS.
The loss of environmental issues.
No more government funding for climate control.
Beef washed in lactic acid and chickens fed on organic arsenic and washed in chloride. Meat laced with hormones and ractopamine tainted meat. Since 1998, more than 1,700 people across America have been "poisoned" from eating this meat.
Bromine in our drinks. Known to depress both the central nervous system and our reproductive system.
Artificial food colourings that are known to have damaging affects on children.
Bromide in our flour, which is know to cause thyroid problems.
Olean, in our fat free products which has been proven to cause massive weight gain.
Butylated hydroxyanisole & butylated hydroxytoluene in our butter, beer, cereals and baby food. Known to cause mood swing and hyperactivity conditions.
rBGH in our dairy produce. Know to be not safe for human consumption.

Labour, Lib Dems, The Green Party and UKIP are adamantly against this type of deal with America. The Conservatives are all for it.

As much as I have seen is that there will be no cap on freedom of movement.
