It is not that hard
1. We buy more from the other EU countries than we sell to them.
2. They aren't allowed to double the prices they charge us, because we are members of the EU.
3. Er, wait a minute .....
The right-wing press have successfully manipulated their readership to blame the evils of the world on themselves rather than the real culprits (the super-rich). They blame immigrant workers for taking low-paid jobs as opposed to capitalists not paying their workers enough in the first place, and they blame foreigners for taking up hospital beds rather than chronic underinvestment in the NHS by successive governments.
I get the feeling we are sitting on a branch, sawing through it on the side nearer the tree.
