In September 2019, at a dinner hosted by his wife Liz Truss in London's Guildhall, Hugh O'Leary heard US Vice President Mike Pence say:

"As I told Prime Minister Johnson today, we believe a free trade agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom could increase trade between our two countries three or four times. And we’re already going to work on that free trade agreement. When you’re ready, we’ll be ready. In fact, the President told me today to tell Prime Minister Johnson that when Brexit is complete, we will begin negotiations on a free trade agreement right away. Our message is clear: The minute the UK is out, America is in ... The United States stands without apology for a strong, prosperous, and free United Kingdom. We always have."[4]
