Disregarding investment income, allowing 4% (ONS max guess) of our exports for the Rotterdam effect, and including both goods and services, UK total exports are about 28% of UK GDP. About 11% UK GDP derives from exports to the rEU27, and c17% UK GDP are exports to the rest of the world (RoW). About 72% of UK GDP is purely domestic. Note that if the Rotterdam effect is disregarded, the export figures become c12% to rEU, and c16% to RoW, both % of UK GDP.<br /><br />It is worth highlighting the fact that we export about 50% more to RoW than to the rEU (inc Rotterdam), and do so under WTO rules. Indeed 98% of global trade takes place under WTO rules. And despite what some Remains claim, the WTO rules cover goods and services.<br /><br />Remains will also try to kid you that our global trade depends solely on the additional RTAs and MRAs negotiated by the EU. This is a fallacy. Trade deals are negotiated under WTO rules and registered at the WTO, merely modifying the basic GATT and Uruguay WTO rules with reduced tariffs and/or mutual regulatory recognition. It is a piecemeal approach completely at variance to the EU's rigid centralisation.<br /><br />Going to the original WTO rules would be a (minor) setback, but most other countries are more reasonable than the EU, so will agree mutually advantageous trade deals more readily. Some of the deals may not be needed because we can set our own lower tariffs; some can be novated.Budgienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-61860832755819591232018-03-21T11:19:29.624+00:002018-03-21T11:19:29.624+00:00as opposed to the UK where

The EU is a bureaucracy and as we all know, bureaucrats lover their perks and pensions and that must be paid for; so who is the paymaster and who calls the tune? I think every reader here can answer that.<br />Rutte seems to have at last understood, but his bleetings will fall on deaf ears, and the lovely Netherlands will become just a useful seaport province for Greater Germany.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-69675364438631486392018-03-21T08:18:12.417+00:002018-03-21T08:18:12.417+00:00"Girls in their twenties wear the hair of wom..."Girls in their twenties wear the hair of women in their fifties.

When you start to disgorge regulation after regulation to protect something, you effectively ossify it. We had a similar occurence in the 1970's. Yes, the unregulated, uncontrolled method can be anarchic, with it's numerous disasters, but what you do end up with is a vibrant, responsive economy.<br /><br />Concur with DeeDee99.

I think you are right about the cracks appearing under their facade of unity, but what Rutte is saying is no more than British remainers have been saying for years - about sovereignty and what is needed is this or that - the fact is that the EU was invented to be like it is, Juncker in those few hours of lucidity granted to him between gis breakfast brandy and a long luncheon was merely stating correctly the EU's fundamental and unchangeable direction.<br /><br />It is about time that people like Rutte moved on from helpless whinging to saying outright "the EU is a dangerous structure that is costing the People of Europe dear in terms of cash, libert and security, and we have to abolish it"<br /><br />That will be the tipping point, when suddenly it becomes ok for these talking heads to talk in these terms.<br /><br />In truth I sense we are not so far away now.Cuffleyburgershttp://www.homoitalicus.itnoreply@blogger.com
