"Surely you're not suggesting that past indiscretions and incompetence should be any sort of bar to becoming a Tory minister?" Who me?... Surly everyone knows the primary qualification to be a minister in the Maybots government is incompetence, unsuitability, arrogance and a total lack of willingness to take responsibility for actions. Of course being a millionaire or the partner of a millionaire also helps when filling out the CV... | |||

How to join the WTO: the accession process. Any state or customs territory having full autonomy in the conduct of its trade policies may join (“accede to”) the WTO, but WTO members must agree on the terms. Broadly speaking the application goes through four stages: Fast fwd to Stage 4... Finally, “the decision”. The final package, consisting of the report, protocol and lists of commitments, is presented to the WTO General Council or the Ministerial Conference. If a two-thirds majority of WTO members vote in favour, the applicant is free to sign the protocol and to accede to the organization.

It could be simple or it could be easy. Our Australian friends have already objected to some of our requests. Ho hum.
That's just to get on the most basic terms of trade with a number of countries that we already have preferential deals with.
Perhaps it will be easy. Perhaps it will be nightmarishly complicated. I don't know. Luckily Centaur can advise us due to his extensive diplomatic and international negotiation experience 
Does anyone believe that Russia and Putin do not see the USA, the EU and the UK specifically as strategic rivals? Are these nations imposing sanctions both nationally and personally? Has the UK not seriously embarrassed Russia in recent months?
Does anyone believe that Russia is not inclined to exact revenge on its enemies either overtly or covertly?
Do we know how many EU trade deals will be rolled over for the UK? Do you know what they involve? They involve mutually agreed standards and domestic content of products. Do you think that we will then be free to change our standards without renegotiation?
The EU has been busy racking up major trade deals, some of which have taken decades. What makes the UK a more attractive market for any country than the EU? Why would the USA or China or India want to do a deal with us more than with the EU? How long will it take to negotiate with them? How long will it take to negotiate the roll over of existing EU deals.
Again, any assertion that it will be quick or easy is nonsense. Nobody actually knows. Stating otherwise is lying.
However, sometimes it's easier to believe a lie than even acknowledge doubt.
Brexit supporter can acknowledge doubt because then the gamble does not seem worth the risk | |||
