I'm not sure what that even means mate. Its the conditions of this future trade that is going to cause the problems to the UK economy. An economy that has already dropped 20% off its currency and is based in a society more divided and unequal than ever.
English exceptionalism is going to hit the brick wall of the reality of negotiations with a far more powerful neighbour and brexit pipe dreams will come to nothing.Total ignorance of the fact that other european states have their politics too and that will come before a cosy deal for the UK. Don't expect pragmatism from the kind of numb nuts we have guiding the ship at the moment either when it becomes clear we are in bother. They are tied to the right wing ideals of a red white and blue brexit and will cling to that until it does not provide them with the opportunity of power any more. Just like the tories did with austerity politics.
Brexit will do nothing to combat globalisation,low wages or immigration numbers - if you don't believe me look at what may,boris and gove have all said privately on the subject..... so once again i find myself asking "whats the point"?
