I'm not sure that they will. The Brits at least don't seem to be interested in presenting their nethers for this chopping block.

  The UK government is one of the most pro-TTIP in the EU, unfortunately.

    And now you know why it's mostly being negotiated in secret. The NHS is basically the third rail of British politics. If you want to know what happens when a government tries a little too hard to undermine it, look at any of our newspapers from last Tuesday or Wednesday. If you want to know what happens when a government mounts an all-out attack on it, look up "political annihilation for at least a generation" in your dictionary of choice. The Liberal Democrats basically got wiped out as a force in British politics in a single election last time, and much of that was because of how they mishandled one sensitive issue several years earlier. Trying to force NHS privatisation and allow foreign companies to literally sue future British governments who sought to undo any resulting damage would make the tuition fees mess that brought down the Lib Dems look like a warm-up act.
