Porsche warns UK customers of Brexit price rise - bbc.co.uk/news/business-… ... well, I know very few brexit supporters who could afford a Porsche and given that any tariffs will go to HMG, I'm not sure many will care. Buy a Nissan, Honda or Mini Clubman instead.
55% of UK trade is non-EU, we maintain a £41Bn positive trade balance and exports are growing.

45% of UK trade is with EU, where we maintain a £61Bn negative trade balance and exports have been declining since 1999. However, even these figures are distorted by Rotterdam effect.
The non-EU imports are themselves subject to third country duties. A good source of tariff information is provided by HMRC - trade-tariff.service.gov.uk/trade-tariff/s… - NB, 3rd country duties can be a % or a EUR / Kg ... it all depends on the schedule.

Brexit already doing massive harm to the UK. Over 200 examples of job losses, lost investment, police & army prepping, companies moving assets to the EU or redomiciling. Meanwhile, the Government burns through £billions chasing a nutty no deal Brexit. Real life, not project fear!
The Government has spent £4.2 billion pounds on Brexit preparations (£2.2 billion in previous Budgets, plus an additional £2 billion in the most recent Budget.) 1/205

EU citizens will be obliged to register to stay in the UK after Brexit (deadline is June 2021). The registration system, which cost the Government £175 million, will have to cope with over 3,500,000 applications, or several thousand a day on average. 2/205

Here are 180 factual, fully-sourced examples of the impact Brexit is already having on the UK. Jobs going, investment drying up, companies moving assets to the EU, or redomiciling. All happening as Government burns through £billions chasing a no deal Brexit it doesn't have to.

1. Plenty of people are talking about the serious threat #Brexit poses to the economy as though remaining was an entirely consequence free decision. It certainly wasn't. By voting to remain we might very well have deferred one or two problems but they would only ambush us later.
2. For starters the stresses that led many to vote leave would still be present and would remain unaddressed. Had we voted Remain the establishment would have paid lip service to the losers but by now the referendum would be ancient history and theyd revert to business as usual.
3. And business as usual is exemplified by the Mayor of London whose top priority this week is to ban burger adverts on the tube. Nevermind the slow motion massacre on the streets of London. This is the bread and butter of the Westminster bubble.

The Brexiteers are correct: if UK doesn't leave the customs union - enabling it to make its own trade deals - then there is no real #Brexit
(Trouble is: leaving CU will damage UK prosperity, jobs & Ireland. Is this the "will of the people"?).
And here is a succinct summary of the Government's customs union conundrum (of its own making) @SebastianEPayne ft.com/content/d07b5c… via @financialtimes #Brexit
And UK can't quickly make up for lost trade with EU-27 after #Brexit if it does leave the customs union, as this @FT graphic shows:
