Can you or veen or somebody answer the following for me? I think I'm missing something fundamental. Great Britain is leaving the European Union, which is a politico-economic union of states, correct? The EU is supportive of the WTO and open and free trade. Would it be unfair to say that their single market is the next step up (and government driven...) from things such as NAFTA / TPP / other international trade agreements? If this is the case, then is there not cognitive dissonance in the outcry over a British exit of the EU when compared to opposition to the trade agreements listed above?
