So with whom exactly will we be able to trade and still keep our heads held at least some small distance above our chests, when we Rejoin the Rest of the World? Saudi Arabia and Russia pretty openly bump-off any citizens who cause them any grief and China has kidnapped the head of Interpol, for goodness sake. And as lovely as the Kiwis may be, why do we want to bring lamb 12,000 miles when we can grow our own or get it from just over the channel? Beats me. Answers on a postcard, please.
“Reeves backs down on plans to cut ISA limit”

Bowed also to common sense, I’d say.
