If we left the EU and they punished us by not selling their goods to us they would be the losers with lost trade, we buy more from Europe than we export to them.
Our biggest problem is that we sold many of our big companies to European owners. Just look at the huge profits the foreign energy suppliers are making and where does all that profit end up, back in their own countries, we are virtually subsiding the French and German energy industry. There a quite a few European companies getting Green Energy subsidies, which are the highest paid out in Europe, for building wind farms all over the place.
