There are no tariffs on stuff we import from the EU.

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)

They might well. But in whose interest would that be?

You tell me. You are one of those who wanted to leave our free trade
area. And not having a trade agreement inevitably results in tariffs
or duty etc.

No it doesn't.

Because there's nothing *inevitable* about it.


Highly likely, unless you'd like to share the mysterious set of
variables that makes it unlikely. Breath not held :-)

You know you're being disingenuous/trolling there. Hypothetically,
you're right - an aggressive militarised superpower might not. But in
reality it will result in a cost, paid either as a duty, tariff,
barter or subscription.

What *are* you talking about? No, it's OK, don't bother.


OK.

Sadly, it seems to be a standard Brexiteer response to any points brought
up about us leaving the EU. Basically non of the usual tariffs and duties
etc will apply.

More lies. There are no "usual tariffs and duties". Only the ones we
*choose* to apply.


Choice? Of course there will be choice, but with regard to opportunities
and constraints. Both of which will shift markedly post-exit.
