biggest fast food chain now opened its 1st branch with kitchen and service stop being placed on she says. is the seat of your business as welcome when i go home at bars johnson the public focus was all on bragg's of backstop and political will but underlying the talks was the question how do you avoid destroying one of the most important trading relationships in the world both machall and johnson know germany is britain's most important trading partner in europe and ukraine needs germany more than germany needs the u.k. it was a threat of recession looming nakul does not want to see further pressure on the trading relationship tens of thousands jobs are reportedly at stake if there is no deal breaks. now let's bring in all this hoping he's with a german british chambre of commerce and joins us from london all is are you convinced like mackle that

10:33 am
scenario that you know if you buy 50 companies it's my feeling and companies that have to be powerful up that it will be bottlenecks in the house in the vaults and that there might well be moments in terms of supply of fresh food and other super products medicines and so on so i think this was an area should be taken seriously it's been following the negotiations and all that to answer on for a while now what has changed since both johnson is in power has anything changed. i think the position of the british government has hardened so all its government has not tried to press it and they're all become very clear that they're working for us in the 1st place so it is the negotiations will become tougher but a little more successful remains to be seen but i think there is a pia willingness to be in union on both the focus of our correspondents government and they are willing to at least like they've always had to to about the cost of you know if you. but it's not me up to it and make the studies now is says that up

to 100000 german jobs are on the line in case of a no deal breaks and as a lobby group for german business that you represent in london do you think you have done enough i think we've done whatever we could talk to the british government but they for the last 3 years they were not your partner themselves finding out the position are they want to feed with the rest of the goetia of actually want which and they still haven't really made this clear of a future relationship will look like it's all off to work and no clear focus on the actual detail and that is a problem for the business but it was the british political establishment which had to sort itself out and they're still in this process of sorting themselves out so there's only so much we can do as a business organization that fights government we can actually tell them of the consequences of nokia principle and what should really be done to ready support business grow and also to keep the trading relationship intact but they have to
