Utter ********. We will have a share of a bigger expanding cake

Where have you invented more of the world from?

Are you a socialist or something? They believe in zero-sum too (that
is, they don't understand wealth creation).

Are you too stupid to understand we already have access to that cake
without leaving the EU.

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

Imports are a problem,

Nope.

you have to export stuff to pay for them.

Britain has been doing that fine for centurys now and will
continue to do that fine when out of the EU too, you watch.

Leaving a free market and probably reducing your exports

You dont know that the exports will be reduced.

Most of what Britain does still export will continue to be
exported to precisely the same buyers as who currently
buy them, most obviously with aircraft engines, airbus
wings, docos, financial services, etc etc etc.

Sure, some of those that currently buy scotch
may change to what Ireland exports instead,
but that isnt likely to be enough matter.

And britain out of the EU wont have to pay the tariff
on what it imports from other than the EU either.

isn't going to help pay for imports.

But not having to pay the EU tariff will.

Which particular imports do you think we want more of outside the EU

All the basic stuff that has EU tariffs imposed on them currently.

and which extra exports are going to pay for them?

Dont need extra exports to pay for the cheaper imports.

It appears to be a common trait amongst brexitters that the world
suddenly gets larger after brexit when it actually might get a lot
smaller as far as exports go.

I refer you to Steve Walker's response of 23:50 last night.
