in the world: to negotiate, in time, our own trade agreements, including with developing
countries, and to be a positive and powerful force for free trade. The Prime Minister

a broad range of stakeholders, including both governments and business over the coming
weeks and months as we prepare for the negotiation with the EU and other international
partners.</p><p> </p>
