One more thing......

One of the main problems, one of the many problems that Brexit has brought, is that people, especially Brexiteers actually understand it.

First and foremost, they see Brexit as an event. An event you can write on you wall calendar or in Outlook and it will happen.

It will, in the sense that the UK will leave the EU my automatic operation of law, but that day, date, is just the start of the process; or the end of the beginning.

Especially in the event of no deal, the 31st October, or whatever day the UK decides to leave, will just be the start of many years of negotiations. Nothing will work, there will be chaos everywhere, and for the EU, the UK will be a third country, and WTO rules state clearly the way the UK is to be treated.

A50 will no longer apply.

Negotiations will take place under articles 207, 217, 218, exactly the same as every other third country, and this will take years.

Years.

There will be no side deals, as the EU will have to comply with WTO rules, the same WTO that Brexiteers claim will save us.

Years.

This is not a scare story, but your actual facts.

There will be no Free Trade Agreement for goods or services for years. Tariffs and non-tariff barriers will last years.

Years.

No matter how damaging.

This is the reality of no deal. Years of chaos, added red tape and bureaucracy and added costs.

Cross-border supply chains will be subjected to added delays and costs, making them nonviable. No wonder the owners of Vauxhall's Ellesmere Port car plant says they might move production to the mainland.

This is not project fear, this is reality. The new reality.
