For the fools triumphing over our 10% tariffs - no, Brexit hasn’t made us better off. Unless we show some strength & team up with the allies on our own continent - we will end up desperate supplicants to the mad orange tyrant. Sovereignty eh. app.theneweuropean.co.uk/story/133047...
So what about the numbers? The Office for Budget Responsibility's earlier predictions of what the Trump tariffs might mean suggested a hit to UK GDP of 0.4%, rising to 0.6% next year. Double that for the EU, and the hit we might have taken as a member looks like 0.8%-1.2% of GDP.
But as we all know by now, the OBR continues to insist that Brexit will cost us 4% of GDP. Selling these tariffs as some kind of proof that leaving the EU was justified is therefore at best an act of straw-clutching self-delusion. At worst it is desperate dissembling.
Still, the dwindling band of Brexit true believers like Lynn will go on insisting that
"Trump just proved Brexit was the best decision Britain ever made". It is a prediction that sounds about as useful as the one he made in 2007 - that Apple had created "a luxury bauble that... will sell a few to its fans, but the iPhone won't make a long-term mark on the industry".
