Correct. And that's been the situation since we joined the common market
in 1973.

This means that we currently have no trade deal with USA, NZ,
Australia,

The EU has no trade deal with the USA - that's what TTIP will be.


I can go into the Apple store in stratford 'city' and by a computer.

I'm not into cars but I'mm pretty sure I could buy a car made in the USA.

The EU has no trade deal with Australia or NZ - last year, there was an
announcement that discussion towards one would be starting in 2017.
