I try and keep up with all things Brexit but I’m baffled by this one.
There is a school of thought which says, even in the event of no deal, we’d still end up having to sign the withdrawl agreement in order to start to negiotiations as a third country on trade deals.
If it’s true then I struggle to understand why Theresa May never made this very clear because it would get the vote through wouldn’t it?
I can’t find anything conclusive on the subject - the WA had to be signed to get a deal but it’s not mentioned in a no deal scenario.
Interested to hear from Leave and Remain voters on this - what is your understanding?
If, even in the event of no deal, we need to sign the WA, why don’t we just get on wth it?
