Well, we can, actually, to the extent that we even make them.
The point is, we are better at selling to the rest of the world than most EU member states, so trade barriers between the EU and the UK would hurt them more.
I'm not sure what your point is regarding Chamberlain. He believed he had an understanding with a dangerously unstable fascist dictator. We are bound by treaty with a couple of dozen democratic states. Hardly the same thing.
