UK in 'front seat' for US trade deal, top Republican says per BBC News

The BBC have to report http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-38565192 through gritted teeth that the UK is in the 'front seat' for US trade deal.  They aren't happy as it's hard to spin this as bad news or as a downside to Brexit. So it's a quick, straight report, one that's doomed to disappear as soon as the BBC can source some bad news about Brexit to replace it. In the meantime:

'Britain will be in the "front seat" to negotiate a new trade deal with the incoming Trump administration, a top Republican in the US Senate has said.

A US-UK trade deal would be a priority, Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Bob Corker said after meeting Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson.

Barack Obama warned in April that the UK would be at the back of the queue for trade deals if voters chose Brexit.'

Poor BBC, the Obamanessiah is on his way out of power to be replaced by a US President who favours alliances with independent democracies such as the UK and Israel rather than the supra national non democratic blocks and Islamists that Barack Hussein Obama preferred.
