Your disgraced Boris Johnson took us out of Thatcher's Single Market. If he wanted frictionless trade, this was not the way to go about it!

How is our trade deal with the EU any worse than Canada's?

There’s no evidence to support your spurious assertion that we are being “penalised”. You are simply trying to shift the blame for the inadequacies of this Government onto someone else. A staple of your input into the current affairs section.
It's a perverse approach. The Conservatives have held power since 2010 but Old Boy seeks to blame everyone but them. This blame-everyone-but-those-in-charge-approach wouldn't last five minutes in the real world!
