The WTO does not prevent countries from applying no tariff to a commodity. That is a fact. Tariffs are import taxes. We do not tax food in this country. That is why I am confident we would not apply tariffs to say rice and bananas as we have to now. That has also been a central plank of the Leave case. Our elected government can now choose which products require tariffs. David said, " It is the loss of imports from the EU which worries me far more than the loss of exports. " He was totally wrong to claim there is any danger of EU withholding goods from us. Who to believe, real economists or Keith? Its a hard one. You are the one making false claims Dave.
