Actually no, but you should be used to being wrong, it changes depending on the circumstances.
The UK became better at transport via the Royal Navy and mechant ships and the proportion changed.

In 1700, 80 per cent of British trade went to Europe from ports on the east and south coasts.
By 1800, 60 per cent of British trade went to Africa and America, often sailing from the three main west coast ports of Bristol, Liverpool and Glasgow. British exports in 1800 were four times higher than in 1700.
For Perishable goods Famers in the UK can produce standard UK crops and Hydroponics many of the more exotic crops.
Note Mexico & Canada have LAND borders with America a considerably richer neighbour.
But following your logic it is indeed true we do trade heavily with other members of the union.

Many of our results are as we would expect. In Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland we find that the majority of UK exports go to England while Scotland is England’s most important export destination. We also find that Northern Ireland and Scotland have large trade deficits with England reflecting the corresponding SUTs which show large trade deficits with the rest of the UK.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Being in the EU made it convenient to buy from Europe, out of it we may trade more with the rest of the world for long life or non perishable goods. How much does a shipping container from China cost?

Originally posted by BlasterBates View PostThe colonies have gone. As the fishermen have found out, you can't sell fresh fish to India.
Our trade with our European neighbours may not need to be the majority as you incorrectly assert. The trade was with all the colonies not just British ones because they had things we wanted and vice versa. The reason it grew was because transport had improved not because we owned the colonies. Despite the usual lazy history many of our colonies benefitted from Empire and the trade that resulted.
Actually the commonwealth is still there and despite us dumping them to join the Common Market, European community, European Union, EUSSR etc. Some of them still want to trade with us.
As the delay is because the fishing industry can't fill in the custom forms correctly one would assume India wouldn't accept them without correct paperwork, so you might be right they have made themselves unable to export to India.
India export fish to the EU so most of the technical stuff is probably done.
We import much of our Cod from China so again closeness is not very important.

There should be absolutely nothing to complain about as, if you recall, glorious leader said:
‘If somebody asks you (to fill in a form) you tell them to ring up the Prime Minister & I will direct them to throw that form in the bin’
