Great news, everyone! Boris Johnson has concluded a new trade deal between the UK and Australia, the first agreement negotiated from scratch after Brexit.

But it’s fair to say not everyone was quite so excited as Johnson.

“I think it is a good deal, it’s one that will benefit British farmers and British consumers as well”

And here’s an indication why.

That’s £1.22 a year or, to be strictly accurate, ‘up to’ £1.22 a year. But every little counts, right? Here are the only 5 responses you need.
