Reposted by David PoyserMark English @markemuk.bsky.social · 02/01/2026Exactly. A customs union alone would free some (mostly big) UK businesses from some complex procedures but would have a limited effect on GDP. The far bigger economic prize is the single market, which would get rid of almost all the Brexit red tape mountain and cut the cost of living, too. 193
