Once again you get it entirely wrong. No country trades entirely on WTO terms. Every major industrialised country is part of a trading block. I don't know of another single journalist who is quite as naive as Julia Farty Bloomers. Here have a read

When did I suggest we wouldn’t have any other trade deals? If you can’t debate in a civil fashion, don’t bother tweeting me again.

Oh bless. You know we’re not even allowed to officially discuss potential trade deals outside the EU until 30 March 2019, right? That *might* help explain the lack of deals so far concluded...

Julia, you said, "we're not even allowed to officially discuss potential trade deals outside the EU &etc." Could you possibly show us, that part of the EU constitution, because I can't find it! I only ask, because there seems to have been lot of talks already started!

What do we pay Fox to do? Apart from shite in the woods.

No, that's bears. Bears shite in the wood. Then they wipe their collective arses on the disgraced former Defence Secretary (to use his full title.)

Total non-sequitur. 1) economic case against Brexit is not that the UK won't 'thrive' [whatever that means], just that we will be poorer than otherwise, because of barriers to trade that go with leaving the single market.
-
I'd say me and my family 'thrive', but we're poorer than we would have been had I worked in the private sector. 2) story you are commenting on is about the possibilities of exiting EU without the admin and physical trade infrastructure that other non EU countries have.
-
Perfectly sensible to conjecture that might be very painful in the short run, before we organise ourselves and head for the 5% immiserated 'thriving' long run.

Over forty years the nations of Europe have created a cooperative economic and political union of which Britain has been part. The benefits of this have not been open to countries from outside Europe. So your comparison is entirely specious.

Name ONE successful country that has turned its back on its closest regional trading block & cancelled all its infrastructure arrangements with it with no back up plans in place. I’ll wait.

@JuliaHB1 demonstrates yet again, that she has a learning curve on which you could play billiards. Every sodding country, in the entire world, is a member of one of the supranational trade bloc. Get a clue.https://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/1003162252269285376 …

You’re missing the point and over-simplifying as usual. I realise you do this to get listener appeal, but remember UK is severing its lifelines and starting them from scratch. It takes several generations to rebuild an infrastructure like ours. Hence stupid to do.

Of course they survive. The point is that, as every serious study shows, we won’t do as well outside. So, what is it that you “know” that the economics experts don’t? Why do you think we’ll do better outside? At 72 yrs old, with global sales experience pre/post EU, I don’t.
