European Movement chair, @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social, argues that despite the leeway on tariffs, we’d still be better off inside the EU.

And he’s right.

Cost of leaving EU £100bn per annum - but it has apparently saved us £31.5 billion per annum and is a bargain.

For those who agree, I have £10 notes on sale for just £20.00 each.

Think I bought some when we left the EU. lol

We don’t have a goods trade deficit with USA. It’s time people understood this. Despite this there is a 10% tariff on UK goods.

It's just Trump trying to divide us again.

Emulating Russia's playbook, divide and rule.

Exactly. I'm sure he got advice. He thinks he's in charge, but he's voluntarily cutting the US off from Europe and can't see who's pulling his strings.

Remarkable that Vine used to be one of the lead presenters of Newsnight.

It's irrelevant. We have left the EU. We are no longer a member. Let's get on with life now and stop thinking about ifs and buts.

That's what Farage would love us to believe. Scams are lessons to those who bother to think. We can also join a customs union to mitigate Trump's madness.

Those words could equally have been said previously.

'It's irrelevant. We have joined the EU. We are now a member. Let's get on with life now and stop thinking about ifs and buts.'

Turned out not to be "irrelevant" back then.

It's not certain anyway that we would have had 20% tariffs if we were in the EU. Probably, maybe, but not for certain

I would not have put it past trump to have set different tariffs for different EU countries
