What I mean is: what tariffs if any will, say, China impose on UK

What tariffs do they impose today? As have no trade deal with the EU,
they can't treat the UK any differently ...

Yes they can.
They can charge less than WTO if they want.

There is no WTO tariff, ****wit.


Not quite the contradiction you imply

Wrong.

- but see the link I referred to above. The WTO 'langauge' is used to
frame a good deal of what goes on.

Thats not an alleged WTO tariff.

But that's not my point

I didnt comment on your point, I commented on Dense's lie.

- the UK exports a fair amount to China - and of course the UK imports a
load back. But substitute 'EU' for 'UK' - how will the trade arrangements
change?

They wont and there is no WTO tariff that will apply either.

As I see it, once we lose the power and influence of the EU juggernaut

There is nothing of the sort with China.

we'll be far easier to kick around.

Fantasy. China is a WTO signatory so can't kick Britain around.

I'd just like to see arguments to convince me otherwise.

China is a WTO signatory and so has to treat Britain
tariff wise just like everyone else, including the EU.
Britain isnt even a developing country which can be
treated differently tariff wise in some circumstances
and that is more favourable treatment anyway.

I've read in outline the Canada+ proposals - Canada's nothing like
applicable to the UK as I see it.

Yes, because there is a real incentive for the EU to make
it appear to be hard to leave the EU to discourage any
other country considering doing that from doing that.

And anyway, a majority of those who bothered to vote
voted to leave the EU and you get to like that or lump it.
