Britain, solid century of decline? Since they’ve been in the EU for the last 47 years, you’re right, it’s probably time to try something different.
If every trade deal is cancelled and tarrifs imposed, that will leave a lot of opportunity for new business growth in the country. All the restraints of negotiating better deals with individual countries will be lifted. Britain would fall under WTO trade rules anyway.
As an aside, Canada, Australia, China, U.S. are all not in the european union and are doing arguably better than the eu.
