1. You think I don't know how import and export taxes work? Yes, we will be outside the EU market. We will, however, be free to trade and make trade deals with every other country in the world. Despite my dislike of Trump, he has expressed a desire for a trade deal between the UK and the USA, and considering the UK invests more than any other country into the USA, and similarly vice versa, this could be incredibly beneficial to us, easily overcoming whatever spiteful deal the EU offers us post leaving.
2. When we trigger article 50 we will have to negotiate with each individual country, sure, that is true. Again, something I already knew (where are these facts I apparently need?) After the 2 years are up we will have to negotiate with the EU as a whole (because the EU doesn't allow its members to negotiate as individual, sovreign countries... one of the main reasons I voted leave)
And I know very well that it has taken 9 years (iirc, it is between 7 and 9, not quite certain) for the EU to negotiate with Canada... and to be honest, I don't see this the same way you do. For me, this is a sign of the EUs gross incompetence, I have no doubt a potential UK Canada deal would take a fraction of the time.
3. That is such a good example for the other nations in the EU! Uncaringly punish those who wish to leave your exclusive club! Who would want to follow a leader like that? You "punish" the UK for taking advantage of their right to leave and more will follow. It would do nothing but show the world how irresponsible and vindictive the EU is. Theresa May may lead us, but she does not represent the vast majority of us. Remember that only 36.9% of people voted for the Tories in 2015
4. Cutting off your nose to spite your face then eh? How pathetically childish of you.
"Go out and check such facts for yourself. You might be schooked at the things you find. "
I did. I researched plenty before making my decision. My views are unchanged. We will become stronger not being a part of your little dying club. Hopefully your country of Denmark will soon smell the roses and leave too. The EU is failing and it will die.
