You’ll now have realised the error in the first tweet in the thread. The question isn’t what our subsidy control regime is; it’s what our subsidy control regimes are. For we have two: Article 3 of the TCA and Article 10 of the NIP.
Both subject to radical uncertainties, calling for resolution by the courts.
Those who voted for Brexit on the basis that it would free us from complex and obscure rules limiting government action that left too much to courts and regulators may not feel that that is quite what they expected to happen.
