Did you know...
- The Brexit transition period isn't guaranteed yet (the EU still have to ratify the Withdrawal Agreement)
- We will have left the EU *before* the transition period (if any) starts
- The transition period doesn't mean zero change from now, only minimal disruption
- Once we leave the EU (ie before transition period, if we get one) the Article 50 process ends. Means we can't "remain" any more as we'll already be out.
- Our various Brexit extensions haven't cost anything "extra" because the membership fee payments reduce what we owe the EU.
- We could still leave the EU without a deal in place on 31 January
- In theory, we could still ask for another Article 50 extension, just like the ones to April 2019, October 2019 and now January 2020.
- Non-EU countries are not obliged to roll over their trade deals with us so that they cover us during transition. (Many will, to be helpful, but they are not legally obligated to because their deal is with the EU, and we won't be an EU member during transition)
