    Some Bremainers have a woeful misunderstanding of trade and presumably, therefore, business more generally. The Single Market is not a binary option; trade versus no trade. You do understand that, don't you? Moreover, what do you think might happen to trade with other regions when tariff and/or non-tariff barriers are erected, both to exports and imports? There's a geography of trading, namely when it becomes more difficult in some regions, it shifts to others. Likewise, you cannot separate exports from imports or both of those things from the level of our free floating currency. Educate yourself:

        It is, if you want to trade within in. It isn't, if you want to trade with it.
