Young Tory argued: because we're the EU's biggest export partner, we're in stronger position.
1⃣ The EU's our largest trade partner too.
2⃣ One's largest trade partner could still only be 6.5% of total exports (as we are for France & Germany, whereas the EU is 46% of ours)

One actual good thing about Brexit is our diet might get better when half of the fish we catch, which would otherwise go to the EU 27 countries, is no longer profitable to sell there so we have to eat it all.
But we are talking about literally eating twice as much.
