In the interim before declaring Article 50 we could, as the government are doing now, have exploratory talks with interested potential trading partners.
This might speed-up the process of arranging a deal once we leave the EU.
Then again, now that Tony Blair is shutting down his commercial interests, perhaps he is preparing himself for a crack at the EU presidency and a possible reform of the EU that allows the UK to stay a member but on better terms.
At this point in time anything is possible, even flying pigs!! LOL!!

Given his track record as Peace Envoy I reckon he'd be ideally suited to joining the ranks of delusional political failures running the EU and all the more reason for us to have autonomy from it.
