<p>9The British Prime Minister insisted that in doing a deal with the US, Britain would be “governed by science and not by mumbo-jumbo” because, he said, the potential is “enormous”.</p>

<p>He told the “naive and juvenile anti-Americans” in the UK to “grow up” and “get a grip”, as he set out his commitment to free trade in his first speech since the UK left the EU on Friday.</p>
<p>The US president has previously said the UK and US could strike a “massive” new trade deal after Brexit, which had the potential to be “far bigger and more lucrative” than any deal which could have been made with the EU.</p>
<p>In doing free trade deals we will be governed by science and not by mumbo jumbo because the potential is enormous.</p>

<p>Speaking in Greenwich, south-east London, Mr Johnson said: “We will get going with our friends in America and I share the optimism of President Trump.</p>
<p>“And I say to all the naive and juvenile anti-Americans in this country if there are any – there seem to be some – I say grow up and get a grip. The US already buys one-fifth of everything we export.”</p>
<p>The PM said there would be “difficulties”, but insisted that the NHS would not be on the table.</p>
<p>“And no, we will not accept any diminution in food hygiene or animal welfare standards</p>
