The job of Brexit will be to offset any losses in terms of market access we have with the EU, and either gaining market share through agreements with other countries, or making ourselves more attractive to other markets in terms of building our ability to export to those markets. That doesn’t have to be through a bilateral trade agreement – there are lots of things you can do through trade promotion or bilateral investment agreements. Clearly we are at a time in which interconnectivity and the movement of people is very important. That is why I think the issues around immigration are going to be key to the UK’s future success, and our attitude to our openness there is going to be very important.
