The ratio for those is favour of reversing Brexit is very close to two to one now.

    I certainly agree there are no benefits, but the whole debate around trade agreements is overblown on both sides. The UK is a service economy, and even within the EU itself there isn’t a single market for lots of services. The idea that either EU membership or Brexit can deliver meaningful trade benefits outside Europe is largely nonsense.

      Yeah trade isn’t that important now, that’s why there were no shortages of basic goods during the pandemic… oh wait.

        Are you suggesting that trade agreements can prevent pandemics?
