If we leave the EU it is naïve to expect to get a trade deal that is more favourable than if we are members of the "club".
My own view is we want the trade deal, but we want a final say over laws in the UK parliament and control over who can stay and work here in the UK. Our trade in the short term has been helped by low cost immigrant workers, but we have been lazy and done little to increase efficiency in many sectors.
Personally I'd prefer to remain in a reformed EU without the needless waste and with control (ultimately) of our laws and people coming into the UK.
If we have to leave, so be it. In the end, I am sure the UK will do just fine. The bigger losers will be the EU. There is a lot right about the EU. There is also a lot wrong with it.
