So, to clarify: We're fucked, then?

One thing that I've hated so much about this whole fiasco is the fact that you end up having arguments about the nuances of trade agreements as if either of you is an expert. The other thing is the sneaking suspicion that I'm more of an expert than any of the UK's ministers who'll be negotiating this (I can explain what a tariff quota is, for example).

I agree with Grangousier. I'm planning my exit.
