See the American online NationofChange post of October 12 headed What You Should Know About That Completed TPP 'Trade Deal' by Dave Johnson for another detailed explanation why it is facing strong opposition in America , while being praised to the high heavens by the Coalition choir. A surprise is the photograph at the head of the post shows President Obama lined up with the leaders of the countries being sucked into the dodgy secret deal, one of them being former Australian PM Julia Gillard...hang on a moment , didn't Andrew Robb negotiate this deal himself as part of a winning trifecta, the nags now being closely examined by stewards and vets? Once again, this blog recommends the independent NationofChange website for well written articles , many of particular significance for Australia .
