So, even if we leave with a deal, it’ll probably end up as a no-deal Brexit.

Downing Street rules out extending the Brexit transition period past 2020 as Number 10 slaps down a Cabinet minister who said free trade talks with the EU will not be 'straightforward'
Downing Street today categorically ruled out extending the Brexit transition period beyond 2020 after a Cabinet minister warned trade talks with the EU would not be 'straightforward'.
Under the terms of Boris Johnson's divorce deal, the EU and the UK have until the end of next year to hammer out the details of their post-Brexit trading relationship.
Critics believe there is no chance of the two sides getting everything done in such a short space of time and the divorce deal does include the option of a delay of up to two years...
... International trade agreements often take years to complete - a new pact between the EU and Japan took the best part of six years to negotiate.
But the government believes the deal between the EU and the UK will be much quicker because the two sides are starting from the same point on tariffs and rules.
