Re: Post-Brexit Thread

Your assuming a net loss over a prolonged period of time and that cannot just be assumed without knowing what trade talks we are unofficially involved with now or in the future let alone official talks once we get out. Nobody knows what measures this or any future government may take to capitalise on our greater freedom to negotiate future trade deals or to stimulate the UK economy. There are simply too many unknowns for anyone to make realistic predictions for 2030 with a straight face no matter how well worded it might be.

This is not even taking into account the feelings of many european businesses that currently trade with the UK who do not want an over penalising of trade by the EU as some punitive measure. If nothing else you can hardly be surprised that "gloom" fatigue has well and truly set in with many people. Your also wrong as there are quite a few remain supporters who would love nothing more then for the UK to fail so they can feel superior as their ego is far more important to them then anything as silly as national interest I've met quite a lot over the last few months.
