@Dominic2306 is talking again. What have we learned? Did he ever have a plan for a successful Brexit? And did it involve staying in, or leaving, the #SingleMarket? THREAD
@Dominic2306’s discussion with @DavidGauke is worth a read. He admits that costs of 🇬🇧 leaving SM were supposed to fall on 🇮🇪. This is foolhardy in itself, but symptomatic of the lack of a wider plan. /1
@Dominic2306 @DavidGauke Staying in SM under #EFTA would of course solve #NI. But did @VoteLeave say to stay in, or to leave, the Single Market? Well, both. But the important promise was that of no adverse changes. /2
From, "missing the forest for the trees" to "missing the trees for the forest".
3/ccp #CCPgeobbles #Assymmetric #Trade #policy "It's the #NTBs stupid" (NTB = non-tariff barriers) #ELISID = Export led, import substituting, investment driven
#Symmetry #Reciprocity is the only way to deal with #CCPCHINA, #CCPPLA (as I proposed 7yrs ago in docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid… )
2/sr #Symmetry #Reciprocity Pay the #CCP back in its own coin (that's the only thing the bullies and the Mafiaosi understand)
3/st #NTBs Some of us have been red flagging #CCPchinas use of #NTBs for decades(eg on Agricultural goods & pharmaceuticals). #CCPcollaborators will now criticize #India for #reciprocating and #CCPapologists will whitewash #NTBs against S Korean Cos(eg Lotto) and Japanese cos!
