    I wonder if Biden being elected will have an impact on what happens with Brexit. He's probably less likely to give Boris Johnson a favorable trade deal and might side with France and Germany over the UK.

    • That's the assumption here, especially where Ireland is concerned, given Biden's heritageNairn
    • Does and will, hence UK Gov been dragging feet on the Brexit negotiations until USA election outcome so they know where they stand.shapesalad
    • Trump = closer to USA less dependent on EU. Biden = Need to be closer to EU, rely less on USA. Broadly speaking.shapesalad

    • ...will put Boris in the unfavourable position of probably having to make a 'bad' deal with the EU and pissing off both the brexiters and remainers (again)Bluejam
    • I guess it makes sense that Nigel Farage was campaigning for Trump's reelection.yuekit
    • Farage isn't particularly popular with the Tory establishment here either, it has to be said. He was a useful idiot for Brexit aims, but that's about it.Nairn
