Eu laments it’s inability under WTO to keep Chinese goods out!

Our balance of trade and balance of growth show the tide turning towards rest of the world. Eu is declining.

We are not in the US either, but manage to export more financial services there than EU

I’ve exported all round the world. EU made it harder not easier because externally it is a protection zone, not a free trade area.
Haha but the EU is signing up trade deals all around the world duh brain. And as part of the EU we benefit from that and in leaving we jeopardise and/or incredibly complicate that. And because of its size the EU can demand high standards and is much more powerful than the clout or lack of clout of one single country. Why do you think Canada and Japan were so keen to sign up trade deals with the EU?
