The consensus is that the UK will suffer in the way that a man who bites his nose off to spite his face will. Thus, wer're not talking of imminent trade deals and tax cuts but more of increased prices and uncertainty. Even the St Petersburgh troll farms would be hard-placed to put a spin on things. Maybe they can sew discontent by pretending that the EU is at fault for agreeing stricter terms for the European Capital of Culture back in 2014 but that's the limit of what they can do as the material doesn't exist. Hint. There is a reason for this and it's because we're now entering Project Reality. Politicians promised us a land of milk and honey not Bombardier trade disputes and chlorinated chicken.
Here we go again with the Russian interference BS.

You will forgive me, or won’t, I don’t care which, if I refute your claims, we will be worse off.

We can still have the same arrangements if we can amicably leave with a deal, we can still trade with the EU without paying a hefty membership fee but more importantly, we can make our own trade arrangements, on our own terms, with the rest of the world, which is a much bigger market. I have pointed out that Billionaire Sir James Dyson has stated the EU market is shrinking and is predicted to fall further in the next 5 years, while the Far East it is growing exponentially.
