Of course not. We are still in the EU. It's what the UK government does
after leaving that is the point.

If the EU slaps a tariff on say Jaguar after we've left, do you really
think the UK won't on BMW? (Just an example for those who can't think for
themselves)

car manufacturing is so intertwined these days that it would be very
difficult to put a tariff on anything to do with car manufacture,


Very few countys dont have tariffs to protect their car industry.

now sheep, that's different.


There is a tariff on gum boots, what you barbarians call wellys, in NZ, for
a reason.
