Subject: RE: BS: Post Brexit life in the UK
SO, if there is no customs union, and no trade deal that is free form tarriffs - ie a trade deal identical to the customs union, who is going to pay the tariffs for any components imported from or exported to EU as part of supply chains. How are we going to stop businssses in EU that use component manufactured in UK. What legislastion will the government put in place to make it illegal to pass increased costs onto consumers.

If firms are going to turn to wider globaloisation, then how are we going to prevent people being employed on exploitative wages?

Will the government have the guts to ban imports from countries that exploit their workers, even if it means damaging the Uk economy - a price worth paying.
