And it's going to be ever so easy for the UK to make deals with all the
other countries in the world, we've been told, as we don't need the EU.


Recently the Canadian official in charge of the negotiation said that the
UK would be part of CETA because it would still be in the EU when it was
ratified within the next 1/2 years and hinted when exiting the EU the
trade deal would may still be valid between Canada and the UK.

There would be nothing to stop us unilaterally withdrawing from it, if that
were to be the case.

(Whether we might want to, or not, is another matter)
