The same would be true of a potentially independent Scotland in the EU.
That is the scenario I was thinking of and may explain all the rhetoric regarding a no-deal outcome from Westminster.
Going to WTO rules is destroying the English economy, the bankers in the City of London are already decampng to Frankfurt, many businesses who export are beginning to realise that with no ties to the single market they're going to be fucked regulations wise (which was always going to be a problem), and English farmers are beginning to wake up to the fact that the Tories are not going to cover the lost CAP payments, meaning most of them are out of business in 2020.
