Trouble is that 52% + the overspill from the GE do not want the ECJ to have jurisdiction over us. With the EU having similar crippling problems to the UK as a result of CV, it seems to me that this is the best moment to plough our own furrow as we'll not get anything out of the alternative.
The Government should get the closest deal possible to ensure that in these troubled times, the recession is not far longer and far deeper than it could be.

I'm not sure how ploughing our own fallow and global supply chains work together.

But if ploughing our own fallow is anything like the way we've handled the coronavirus situation (non-tendered deals to cronies for bad equipment, track and trace not working effectively, worst Covid figures in Europe.) then you need to think through such an approach.
