Magic beans

Is that what they call the balls of Farage, Boris and Gove these days?

One for the Brexiters - What have we got to sell after Brexit?

I hear Suity's developing a BPM system

All of which adds up to about 12% of the economy.
(The largest of those figures is 64 billion, chump change when you consider spending.)
Clearly its not enough since we have a large, growing, record current account deficit.
So you haven't really answered the question either.

That list is the top 10 exports, I'm sure we sell more than 10 things...

To answer your question, we will export what we export now post Brexit, some more, some less, depending on investment, demand and exchange rates.

You could stop fretting, the whole Brexit thing is just something for the markets to panic about, just like when Yellen or Carney farts or coughs during a speech.

Within five minutes of Chateaux Paddy there is a Brit farmer who sold up in the UK and moved into a disused farm. Local land tax and council tax for him is just over £100 pa, water is free when pumped from the well and tap water is 75p per 1000 litres. He is doing just fine, since brexit he has invited farmer friends to do the same.

You say that but... who will put a stop to this national disaster?

... the 48% will now have to endure the harshest economic growth they've ever known; brutal increases in jobs, and savage influx of disgusting capitalist wealth to pay off the national debts

FTFY

You could stop fretting, the whole Brexit thing is just something for the markets to make panic about and profit from, just like when Yellen or Carney farts or coughs during a speech.

I'm not really fretting about the markets.
I'm asking what a plausible model is for the economy going forward.
Given that:

- almost certainly FDI will fall
- almost certainly the current account deficit will rise due to the fallen pound and therefore more expensive imports
- our already low exports may be hit by tariffs.
- we may lose passporting rights for financial services

yes exactly, what have we got that the rest of the world want to buy, our manufacturing is finished, Oh!! hang on a minute.

You do understand that the vast majority of British made cars are not made by British-owned companies, don't you?
You do realise that a lot of them are here ONLY because of access to the single market of EUrope, don't you?
You do realise that the profits of Jaguar - Land Rover, for example, go to India?

Oh well, probably not.
