    Lack of extra tarrifs on UKs products due to EU free trade zone.

    One UK is out from EU it will spend ages negotiating terms which might not be as generous, plus EU will be within its right to impose tarrifs on dumped goods and services because of variety of reasons they can think of or just make up on the spot - zero hours contracts, or lack of full employment rights for contracts, whatever.

      A thick Brexiteer will be along shortly to spout some ill-considered random bollux.
      No I won't

      I'm cooking me tea.

        And once we bend over, part our cheeks and take it.

        They can still do that and we can do fook all about it because we voted to be the 8th vassel state of the Unified states of Germania.

          Is this the same Matthew Elliot who:

          On February 3, Vote Leave's CEO Matthew Elliott and campaign director Dominic Cummings stepped down from the board of the group following months of infighting that threatened to tear the campaign apart.

          Elliot and Cummings might not be household names, but, as the leaders of one of the two major leave organisations, they were supposed to be the men who would help mastermind Britain's exit from the EU. Their departures indicate that the leave campaign as a whole appears to be failing to provide a cohesive opposition to the remain campaign.
          and:

          Matthew Elliott, chief executive of Vote Leave, has admitted that his organisation cannot absolutely claim that the UK could save £33bn by scrapping EU regulations.
          ...
          Elliott also acknowledged that many of the EU’s regulations, such as anti-discrimination laws, are good and would be kept in some form post-Brexit
          Presumably he's not too sure of anything so anything he says is not to be counted
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Look, there's a reason you're a "PM", aka a glorified scapegoat.
            It's because you didn't do too well at school.
            Nothing's changed, your analytical skills haven't changed one iota.
            So don't worry your peabrain about stuff that is beyond you.
            Hard Brexit now!

                  Germans got autobanhs, fast cheap trains go on time, CEOs of big car firms are PhDs in Engineering, etc etc etc - it would be end of Britain if they choose to adopt English language instead of German...

                    Some folks fail to realise Britain is no longer that head of that huge empire, with vast resources, it's a small country that makes nothing and ticks along on the back of huge debt.

                    Looking forward to Brexit and still getting visa-fee travel, zero-trade tariffs with EU not not paying anything into it. Like yeah...

                    I think I shall from now on rename 'Brexit' to 'Brexthick'......

                      so how did we lose the empire?
