We do however export vast amounts of stuff to the EU, so a Canada Deal, which is Tariff Free, would secure local jobs.

The foodstuffs are fresh and there is no market for them here in the UK.
Financial services are also big news in Edinburgh, Belfast, Glasgow, Bristol, Manchester and Birmingham.

1.7milllion FS jobs are outside London. Far more than in London.

Only about 100,000 people line in North Shropshire so it's not a good idea to base our Brexit policy on what happens in that particular backwater.

I'm sure the farmland used to produce food we don't eat could be re-wilded and the workers offered other employment.

Hi

The object of the exercise is to leave the EU and develop Free Trade Deals with the rest of the World.

The Canada style deal is what we are hoping to negotiate with the rest of the World, so why should we just not take it and minimise the effect that Brexit has.

No deal is just self flagellation, something I am not into.

You not only miss the point, mon petit filous, but you fail to understand that the perogative of deciding whether you have interpreted my post correctly is mine and mine alone. ..... And you failed miserably !!

Brexit, if done as it should be done, would be a massive boon for the UK so why would you want to minimise that effect........Only a Remainer talks that sort of shite!
