Are you too stupid to understand we already have access to that

No we don't. We are constrained by having to apply EU tariffs to
imports.

Ah - right. You think our way forward is to have cheaper imports?


Would help the cost of living, eh? Last time I looked we don't grow
bananas.


Try something else as we can get bananas at zero rate from lots of
countries.


I don't know the rate for bananas but here's a good alternative. Per
IDS, last year the EU approximately trebled the tariff on oranges from
3% to 16% to protect Spanish producers. But that, of course, means that
we all have to pay more in the shops.
