How to create outlook signature

put that picture up and let's put the sound up and hear from the british prime minister since the british people voted to take back control of their money their borders their laws and their waters and to leave the european union and earlier this year we fulfilled that promise that we left on january the 31st with that oven ready deal since that time we've been getting on with our agenda enacting the points-based immigration system that you voted for that will come into force on january the 1st doing free trade deals with 58 countries around the world and preparing the new relationship with the eu and there have been plenty of people who have told us that the challenges of the kovid pandemic have made this work impossible and that we should extend the transition period and incur yet more delay and i rejected that approach precisely because beating kovid is our number one national priority and i wanted to end any extra uncertainty and to give this country the best possible chance of bouncing back strongly next year and so i'm very pleased to tell you uh this afternoon that we have completed the biggest trade deal yet worth 660 billion pounds a year a comprehensive canada style free trade deal between the uk and the eu a deal that will protect jobs across this country it will allow goods uk goods and components to be sold without tariffs and without quotas in the eu market a deal which will if anything allow our companies and our exporters to do even more business with our european friends and yet which achieves something that the people of this country instinctively knew was doable but which they were told was impossible we've taken back control of our laws and our destiny we've taken back control of every jot and tittle of our regulation in a way that is complete and unfettered from january the first we are outside the customs union and outside the single market british laws will be made solely by the british parliament interpreted by uk judges sitting in uk courts and the jurisdiction of the european court of justice will come to an end we will be able to set our own standards to innovate in the way that we want to originate new frameworks for the sectors in which this country leads the world from biosciences to financial services artificial intelligence and beyond we'll be able to decide how and where we're going to stimulate new jobs and new hope with freeports new green industrial zones we'll be able to cherish our landscape and our environment in the way we choose backing our farmers backing british food and agricultural production and for the first time since 1973 we will be an independent coastal state with full control of our waters with the uk's share of fish in our waters rising substantially from roughly half today to closer to two-thirds in five and a half years time after which there is no theoretical limit beyond those placed by science or conservation on the quantity of our own fish that we can fish in our waters and to get ready for those for that moment those fishing communities will be helped with a big 100 million pro pound program to modernize their fleets and the fish processing industry and i want to stress that uh although of course the the arguments with our european friends and partners were uh were sometimes uh fierce this this is i believe a good deal for the whole of uh of europe uh and uh for our friends and partners as well because it will not be a bad thing in my view for the eu to have a prosperous and dynamic uh and contented uk on your doorstep and it will be a good thing it will be it will drive jobs and prosperity across the whole continent and i think it'd be a bad thing if we in the uk do things differently or take a different approach uh to legislation because in so many ways our basic goals are the same and in the context of this giant free trade zone that we're jointly creating the stimulus of regulatory competition will i think benefit us both and if one side believes it's somehow being unfairly undercut by the other then subject to independent third party arbitration and provided the measures are proportionate we can either of us decide as sovereign equals to protect our consumers or businesses but this treaty explicitly envisages that such action should only happen infrequently and the concepts of uniformity and harmonization are banished in favor of mutual respect and mutual recognition and free trade and for for squaring that circle for finding uh the philosopher's stone that's enabled us to to do this i want to thank a president vandalian assalamualaikum of the european commission our brilliant negotiators led by lord frost and michelle barnier on the eu side as stephanie riso as well as oliver lewis tim barrow lindsey appleby many others their work will be available for scrutiny followed by a parliamentary vote i hope on december the 30th this agreement this deal above all means certainty it means certainty for the aviation industry and the hauliers who have suffered so much in the covid pandemic it means certainty for the police the border forces the security services all those we rely on across europe to keep us all safe it means certainty for our scientists who will be able to work together and continue to work together on great collective projects because although we want in the uk to be a science superpower we also want to be a collaborative science superpower and above all it means certainty for business uh from uh financial services to our world leading manufacturers our our car industry a certainty uh for all those uh who are working in high-skilled jobs uh and in firms and uh factories across the whole the whole country because there will be no uh palisade of tariffs on january the first and there'll be no non-tariff barriers to to trade instead there will be a giant free trade zone of which we will once be a member and at the same time be able to do our own free trade deals as one uk whole and entire england northern ireland scotland wales together and i should stress this deal was done by a huge negotiating team from every part of the uk and it will benefit every part of our united kingdom helping to unite and level up across the country and so i say again directly to our eu friends and partners i think this deal means a new stability and a new certainty in what has sometimes been a fractious and difficult relationship we will be your friend your ally your supporter and indeed never let it be forgotten your number one market because although we have left the eu this country will remain culturally emotionally historically strategically geologically attached to europe not least of course through the four million eu nationals who have requested to settle in the uk over the last four years and who make an enormous contribution to uh our country and to our lives and i say to all of you at home at the end of this toughest of years that our focus in the weeks ahead is of course on defeating uh the the pandemic and on beating coronavirus and rebuilding our economy and delivering jobs across the country and i'm utterly confident that we can and will do it we've uh by today we vaccinated almost 800 000 people and we've also today resolved a question that has bedeviled our politics for decades and it is up to us all together as a newly and truly independent nation realize the immensity of this moment and to make the most of it happy christmas to you all that's the good news from brussels now for the sprites actually it's known for the media
