would make goods more expensive and goods from the uk into the eu more expensive and we've already seen how it's difficult um for uk exporters and this was one of the things that we talked about before as well how yes boris johnson got non-tariff barriers in put in place but without a trade deal there would be tariffs imposed and then you would have not just the problems of exporting without tariffs but you'd have the problem of exporting with tariffs so it would make many uk goods that are at the moment being able to get through they would become more expensive and um to a point where many european customers would just not buy them anymore and then finally the tca and i hope this is not the case but it could be it's possible that the european commission the european union will decide we're not going forward with the tca we're going to cancel the tca it must be be remembered that the withdrawal agreement at the time the of the negotiation of the withdrawal agreement the uk wanted to have a trade deal um agreed before the the withdrawal agreement and the european union at the time said no we want to make sure that the withdrawal agreement is signed first that is part of the condition you're not getting your trade deal until we have the withdrawal agreement signed and eventually the withdrawal agreement was signed boris johnson sold it remember to the public as an oven ready deal and then then the tca was agreed after that so the the tca uh can be suspended if one side decides um i don't know the consequences for the european union in that regards the consequences for the uk would be pretty severe as i said you would have tariffs reimposed uh it makes more expensive for uk exporters and i think the general feeling between the uk and the eu would be even more frosty than it is at the moment the the the relationship would become much worse now how is this going to affect northern ireland i don't know um the northern protocol and the withdrawal agreement are separate from the tca but there are no winners here there are only losers and some lose more than others and unfortunately in a trade war this would be basically a trade war the uk will come out worse because european customers can look elsewhere european suppliers can supply elsewhere the uk is an island they need to they need to rely on the european union they can't source goods from from far away it just becomes economically unviable but let's see how things progress hopefully we don't get to the stage where um boris johnson and lord frost trigger article NUMBER_TOKEN it's looking more more likely but hopefully they won't do that they will keep it in reserve as they've been doing over the last number of months and this is just saber rattling let me know in the comment section guys what you think about all of this as always your comments are greatly appreciated thanks a lot
