This week all headlines are about Brexit… the agreement prime minister May made with EU commission was defeated by the British parlement. So now we’re awaiting if there’s really coming a hard Brexit or if there will be a new vote and maybe no Brexit after all? Who will tell? It’s certain that a hard Brexit will be bad for business, especially in the UK. They will shoot themselves back in time, and not a little bit for sure…

But the UK is the UK and will stay UK forever, nobody can tell what really will happen until it does happen, and that’s the same with the new products we have prepared for you this week. These are surely arrived and available from today, this is what happened at BBT this week…:)
