No, i don't make it sound like that. That is the opinion of the new German Chancellor in waiting. But obviously everyone will be affected. I believe one of the reasons France may want us to leave is because we are the biggest critics of the common agricultural policy which was originally conceived to protect french farmers. And as we have seen in the past any attempt to change it has the tractors out in force and the french government caves in and then vetos any change because they don't have the bottle to fight their farmers (Or anyone else history may suggest!)
Get some reading glasses ...
"A recent poll suggested 100,000 German jobs could be affected by a no-deal Brexit.
The BDI Federation of German Industry warned Germany would lose at least 0.5% of its GDP - and this at a time when the German economy is already heading south."
The EU will also have to deal with Trump, who is going to aggressively renegotiate their current trade deal.
I notice yet another post was deleted from here
We can make a trade deal with the US on the day we leave.

Oh yippee, so we can be bent over backwards by Trump just so we can get a deal. Remember his slogan America First, we have no bargaining chips in those negotiations whatsoever. What do you think the US will demand from us to get a deal?
Considering we can't even negotiate leaving the EU, we are highly unlikely to be able to get a deal from the States that is good for this country.
The other thing is that it takes years to negotiate a trade deal, we will not have anything signed the day after we leave the EU.
Brexit has cost the economy £550 million a week since the referendum. Put that on the side of the bus

Anyone who says they need us more than we need them is 100% barmy.
"The EU will also have to deal with Trump, who is going to aggressively renegotiate their current trade deal."
And then
"We can make a trade deal with the US on the day we leave"
I mean...Bloody hell.
Cognitive dissonance is so strong among certain sectors.
It’s not worth debating on this board, there has not even after all these pages been one decent reason given to leave that isn’t completely easily proved to be nonsense.
The brexit people were sold doesn’t exist, anyone who still wants it is happy for the country to become an economic backwater just so they can say they’ve “won”.
