Fair point. Though the future might not be so rosy. But in an unfortunate timeline those countries are likely to quickly align with some others anyway.

However, deals made in peace are usually better.

Exactly - the UK currently has comparable GDP per capita to tiny middle of nowhere commonwealth economies like New Zealand.

Yet they have the fundamentals to be at least at Australian and Canadian levels of prosperity.

I hope you're right and the UK will prosper, but so far it fights imaginary enemies instead of conducting well thought out reforms.

Too many politicians in the UK are trying to ensure the economy tanks when the UK leaves the EU.
