That is the position outlined by HMG and it is one I entirely support.

How can you get equal terms if the country or trading bloc you are negotiating with is significantly larger than you?

It's gone from talks of the third world war to the web wide war.

Pro-Brexit Twitter account with 100,000 followers could be part of Russian 'disinformation campaign'
The user, who claims to be from “Southampton/Isle of Wight” has sent more than 137,000 tweets, followed 97,000 accounts and gathered 102,000 followers.
The bio describes “Jones” as “Pro UK, Pro USA”, adding: “I am a passionate Brexit supporter. I like Europe but dislike the EU. I want the UK to be a free sovereign nation.”
The account was set to private following a report by The Times, with a tweet claiming that allegations of Russian connections were false and “completely defamatory”, adding: “I am not pro Kremlin at all, I am just a Brexit supporter.”
But attempts by journalists and analysts to verify “Jones’s” identity have so far failed and the person running the account has not responded to contact from The Independent.
