In all the ins and outs of trade deals, who will be better off and who worse off.
I would just think of it like this - the EU sell us more than we sell them - is that correct ?
WTO rules of 10% tariffs if no agreement - is that correct ?
We would both be worse off if each side imposes 10% tariff on goods - correct ?
Would German car producers take the 10% tariff on the chin or would they increase their car price ?
If you had a choice of a German car that is 10% higher than a non EU car - which one would you buy ?
Both sides lose out - I wouldnt buy a car with a 10% tax on it - if I can buy a similar car for 10% less from somewhere else. Which is why pressure from business and member states will force Barnier to talk sense - and for us the same.
