Re: Brexit Development(s) Discussion
There's always the possibility that Boris is planning to leave the EU with a purpose.
If we crash out there will be economic chaos in both the UK and the EU.
However, once we are out of the EU he can take up all the deals that Liam Fox provisionally facilitated around the world plus of course a deal with America.
The EU won't really be able to do that and they also need to find where the contribution money gap created by the UK leaving is going to come from.
The EU will be losing out on the UK market and our businesses will be using our new deals to market the products that would have gone to the EU, so that's the EU's loss.
Then of course Boris can apply sometime later to do a trade deal with the EU but on his terms. Given that our trade potential should be a lot higher from all the new deals, the EU might be happier to do a deal with us in the future.
But we'll have to wait and see.
