There's a subtle difference, the TTIP agreement being "Secretly" negotiated at the moment; is being negotiated by " Big Brother "......the EU....with their agenda of a Federal Europe as the backdrop.

That may or may not be the situation but IF such a trade agreement is reached between the EU and the USA do you really believe that the UK as a far smaller trading partner wouldn't have to comply with the terms of that agreement if we wanted to increase our trade with the US?
