So any "informal" agreement achieved before Brexit is questionable. The political dyamics of 26 different countries will determine what happens, and it's probably going to take a long long time.

Look at it another way: Merkel and May plus others spend a week around the cooking pot thrashing out an informal deal. For whatever reason it gets rejected by the EU as a whole. How do you think that will go down exactly?
It would take all 27 to vote us out. And if we get WTO at 10%, so does the rest of the EU. Except those that want to break away.
Sounds like another case of EU politicians voting for Christmas.

What the EU Commission doesn't get is that a raft of politicians feel they are to blame for Brexit. If the Commission had let the UK speak with Heads of State rather than Junckers fledglings then we might well be staying. They aren't going to help themselves by trying to overrule informal talks.

Why 6 years? Because they want to be voted in again in 2020 or 2021 to complete it LOL

Schulz underlined this point by warning that MEPs could veto the final Brexit agreement, meaning the UK could be forced out of the EU with only its World Trade Organisation membership to fall back on.

2. Your second statement above is correct. The real impact, which I am sure will be negative, will be seen in that time period.

The market agrees with me. Hence the pound falling. That is the market's assessment of future UK prospects.
Money talks etc.
