Besides on Day One after we leave who will be the number 1 target for a trade deal? Who will be the easiest to trade with, one of the largest customers, one of the most wealthy? It will be the EU.

We're going to have to do a deal with them anyway. They're huge, rich and right on our door step. Why subject ourselves to economic harm rather than slowly transition with something like May's deal into that new relationship.

What part of being outside is suddenly going to change the dynamic of the terms of a deal? Especially when there will be immense pressure to get something done because at the moment we've not really lost anything, that's about to change.
