We import even less from the UK than we export to them.
Also, lack of a free trade agreement doesn't mean we can't trade with them at all, most of that trade will continue completely fine. It just means that on either side there can be additional tariffs on specific items if the country decides to do that.
A free trade agreement isn't just about goods either. Professional mobility is a wonderful thing. Anyway, I digress. I hope we can work something out. Actually, I hope the UK reverses course and rejoins the EU, but that's another conversation ;)
Never going to happen. They well have less power then before.
And that would be unfortunate for them, but clearer heads may come to the conclusion that they would have more power internationally than they do now.
