The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is a proposed trade agreement between the European Union and the United States, with the aim of promoting trade and multilateral economic growth. The agreement is opposed by unions, charities, NGOs, and environmentalists in Europe who criticise the agreement for reducing regulations on food safety and environmental legislation.

Yes, but only if food safety and environmental legislation is kept to a strict standard i.e., the EU standard rather than lowering to the US standard
@4VQTBLM4yrs4Y
If the US adapt their crops to adhere to EU GA rules and regulations and EU Data Protection laws are kept.
@9QK54D25mos5MO
No, we should focus on a new and tailored trade partnership between the UK and the US, that suits us both. The EU is not a factor.
@9M5W96K7mos7MO
Yes, but those goods that are traded through the TTIP, the suppliers will need to operate with increased transparency with the UK taking priority on suppliers with high quality food safety standards and environmental protection policies.
@9JNGGBD10mos10MO
while the bureaucracy isn't good, the way the world is currently sees such partnerships as common practice. Ideally I'd say no, practically I'd say yes.
@9FN8PSZ1yr1Y
Not currently as no deal with the USA is an equal one and safety/environment is compromised
@9FJM24N1yr1Y
Only if the deal is good for the uk good trad links with the eu is more important
@9DVTY6F1yr1Y
Yes but we should adopt a unilateral free trade policy
