1/ LEAVE .EU Have tweeted today 23/02/2019 the following image. 
2/ We aren't' going to argue about the specific figures but on the issues. Leave. EU are implying that since Switzerland 🇨🇭are outside of the EU 🇪🇺 but do a large amount of trade with the eu, then the UK outside of the EU will have no problem doing the same.
3/ What they fail to explain (deliberately most likely) is that Switzerland 🇨🇭has a Free Trade Agreement with the EU
4/ In addition,, Switzerland is a member of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) and has several bilateral treaties with the EU. If Leave. EU think that's the sort of model the UK should pursue, fair enough.
5/ But they don't advocate that. So we think they are just using a half-truth to convince MPs and the public to support a hard brexit. Maybe they will surprise us, but we doubt it. /End
