    We don't have any boats so there is no chance we can compete, plus of course our current quotas are unlikely to change so trying to export caught fish is a bad idea. We could farm them locally and once out of the EU the quotas can be renegotiated as we build a fleet. Alternatively we can buy from further abroad.

    Steel we are buying it all from china anyway so long as we can sell premium steel products (we can't produce cheap steel because of cost basis) we are probably ok.

    Telecoms we lost that years ago.

    Business services - maybe.

      That is a stock photo, there is nothing to indicate whether the "women" are even British, so how do you come to presume that they voted for British independence from the EU?

                    Rolls-Royce reports record loss of £4.6bn

                    Most international aerospace contracts are priced in dollars, but, as a UK company, much of Rolls-Royce's costs are in pounds. Since the Brexit vote, the pound has fallen sharply against the US dollar, which has led to the accounting loss.

                      Rolls-Royce agreed to pay £671m to settle corruption cases with UK and US authorities and it has written off £4.4bn from currency related contracts.
                      So basically a criminal organisation is now losing money?
