I think that if President Bush phoned the Prime Minister and said, "If all else fails, we'll let you in to NAFTA", that would help decision makers here.
I would rather we dealt with you than dealt with the French and Belgians.

I always thought that opening up NAFTA to the Brits and even the Irish would be a good idea. I also liked the idea of offering Statehood to the Polish before they joined the EU.
