Evening! I've not posted in this section before, so hello.
I've been thinking lately about the effects of Brexit on places like Bangladesh; I read the other day that the price in U.K£ of clothes made in Bangladesh would go up by about 15%, and that could sound like a good thing as we pay a pittance for clothes in Primark et al. However, this report from Bangladesh says that this isn't such a good thing after all as demand will drop, so overall the Bangladeshi economy will suffer as a result of Brexit:

And this less optimistic forecast is shared among other countries:

I'm not sure what I want to ask, really. I guess a few things: did anyone anticipate the negative impact that Brexit would have on very vulnerable ecomomies like Bangladesh? Is there anything that the UK can or should do now to alleviate the economic loss to these countries?
