A Brexiteer has been left fuming after the EU failed to update its website to include a reference to its newly-signed trade agreement with the UK.<\/p>\n
John Redwood used a blog on January 2 to complain that the bloc had yet to update its list of trade deals agreed with other countries.<\/p>\n
Referencing the \"negotiations and agreements\" section of its website, the Tory MP pointed out that reference of a Brexit deal does not appear in any of the sections headed \"Agreements in place\", \"Agreements being adopted or ratified\", \"Agreements being negotiated\" or \"Agreements on hold.<\/p>\n
But with the deal only agreed on Christmas Eve, it is likely to have been an administrative delay preventing it from being published online sooner.<\/p>\n
MEPs also still have to vote on the agreement.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, Redwoodwrote:The EU website today has no record of the EU\/UK Trade Agreement under trade deals.<\/p>\n
Nor does its site give any indication of how to trade with the UK, left out from a long list of nations they refer to in the Trade section.<\/p>\n
Do they not want to keep on selling us so much, or are the just unable to update their site for the new realities?<\/p>\n
Surely they should put up the EU\/UK Agreement subject to ratification, as I understand that is what they intend to do.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, if they do not think they will be ratifying it they should put up the WTO terms to alert people to that.<\/p>\n
