So increased costs of trade and WTO unequal tarrifs plus lower standards won't happen? They will. Even the favourite economist of hard brexiteers predicts a decimation of industry. As for hard wired models where are the ones that slant in the other direction?

Trade costs will be determined by our future relationships, both with the EU and others. These are unknown. We will set our own standards, so they can be what we want. On models, you seem to miss the point (which doesn't surprise me). The ones you cite are nonsense.

So on day one, after the no deal you support, the cost is undetermined? WTO rules are pretty clear as are the schedules. These future relationships? What about the so called 40 cut and paste trade deals? Only 8 have been done! No deal is bad for Britain.

It isn't worth sacrificing decades to avoid a few days of minor bumps that probably won't happen anyway.

The fact that you think it would be a few days of minor bumps is deeply disturbing and bares zero relation to reality. As it's impossible to have a rational argument with such irrationality I'll leave it there.

You are too wedded to your hysteria. Apocageddon is not imminent.

You're right since we are now on a path to a more sensible Brexit if not full revocation. Sense prevails.

The lunatics are taking over the asylum to hide how ludicrous their statements have been, and they will doubtless try to pass the buck for the consequences.
