Here is a promise from vote leave in 2016.
"It will be possible to negotiate a new settlement with the EU, including a UK-EU free trade deal, by the next general election in May 2020. This is mainly because 1) there is already tariff-free trade between the UK and the EU and 2) there is already regulatory equivalence, so the main stumbling blocks to negotiating a trade agreement are absent. It is also in all countries’ economic and political interests for there to be a friendly deal that will increase and improve international cooperation"
How did that go, Barney?

BBC News - Brexit sound bites and slogans will run out www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-51255530 Interesting piece from John Pienaar, which suggest that, despite all the soundbites, Brexit is far from being 'done'. But then we all knew that, most of us anyway.

And there was me hoping it was a new version of a Hitler rant.

The extra two days will ensure the sprouts are cooked, as long as you put them on by October.

Nothing to celebrate, as it is only media hype. Brexit was 'won' in the general election. We can only wait and see how the trade deals work out. In a perfect world, we get a free trade deal with the EU, who also allow us to trade with whoever else we like. Alternatively our so called independence from Europe results in us being tied to China or the USA. Interesting conundrum that one...
