I'm absolutely in favour of this, as long as they relax their rules for us. Let's start negotiating now - fuck the EU and their rules.

Quote:The UK has been told it will have to relax its immigration rules for Australians if it wants a free trade deal with Canberra.
Alexander Downer, Australia's high commissioner to the UK, said the country would want better access for business people working in the UK before reaching a post-Brexit deal.
He said it might be possible to strike a deal within eight months of Brexit.
Preliminary moves over a possible agreement had been made, he added.
UK Prime Minister Theresa May has already said she will begin talks to strike a trade deal with New Zealand in the coming months.
Mr Downer told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that Australia's access for businesses had often been a part of its free trade negotiations.
"It might just make it a bit simpler actually," he said.
"For example, an Australian company that invests in the UK might want to bring some of its executives to the UK.
"That can be done with what are called tier 2 visas, but maybe that could be made a little bit easier.
"I suspect they would be the only sort of changes you'd be looking at."
