CPTPP, or the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, to give its full title, is essentially a trade bloc of countries in the Asia-Pacific region. Reaction to the UK joining has been mixed and rather predictably divided down Brexit lines.
Although the economic benefits of joining the bloc probably will be relatively small in economic terms, any increase in trade is a good thing and it is also important geopolitically.
