From what I can gather the Prime Minister has eliminated Single Market membership as an option, to rapturous applause from the conference.

The Chancellor has also indicated there is no stimulus planned to offset any negative impacts. Deficit reduction remains the priority.

Journalists there inform the hall really, really want out. Like yesterday.

Keep an eye on Sterling.

I'm pleased she has finally put to bed any notion of EEA , 'Swedish' or Norwegian models for the future .We will simply negotiate an agreement with the EU ,simple and straight forward .

It'll be a lose:lose now May has blown what leverage we did have, timing of A50 and flexibility on what we are seeking, but as long as you're happy.

Not necessarily, she has 3 million EU "migrants" she can barter with

Yep.

The way some folks are talking, anyone would think there's no uncertainty about staying attached to the EU. My God just look at what's going on over there! Forget the UK, what's the EU going to look like in 2 years time?

It's the best decision.

The EU leaders keep on threatening us with the single market, best we tell them to shove it.

Then they lose all their leverage.

Now we can negotiate on level terms.

Losing the single market does mean that we lose the ability to trade freely with Europe as a single bloc. Europe won't offer as the same deal, we'll lose something in exchange for the deal we do get.

Leaving the single market protectionism will benefit us more though imo.We have never really benefited as much as other European countries from the single market

I've been making a mint out of additional guests from the US and Canada over the past couple of months. This is likely to be my best year in business so far.

... and unlike a certain G. Brown Esq. I'm sure you'll be fixing the roof while the sun's shining.

Have you any thoughts yet on how Brexit might affect your business in terms of any EU inspired legislation you're bound by?
