Fortunately a lot of UK companies have been pointing out the patent problem (well to be precise the we get their patents but we don't have them here so its unfair side of it), and with any luck the patent issues will get re-examined. Secondly I'm fairly sure that GATT in any form if it went to a referendum as the maastrict treaty (european single market) did in some countries it will be thrown out by the people - amongst other things the french farmers are very powerful. I guess we have to hope that GATT takes so long to negotiate that the US ceases to be a credible world power (two dollars to the pound and its rising 8-)) or has its much overdue revolution. Alan
