What's Happening With BREXIT?

Most of what you would be buying is probably food and raw materials, why do you think bananas, pineapples, watermelons are so much more expensive in Europe than in the US?

And no finalized products?
Does the UK buy considerable amounts of food and raw materials from the EU?
In regards to food, might be, and if so it is probably due to subsidies by EU.
You simultaneously ignored some of my questions before, and answered to yourself specifically about the UK, and why Brexit is no big deal for it, economically.

I ignored no questions, as you have mostly made your points, the only one I didn't answer is if I included insurance, which I don't.
Frankly, Brexit will be whatever it will be, not what you wish it to be, I hope it comes out good for you, I doubt it, but now it is in your hands, but as you do think it will be so good, I think it is now up to people who think like you to make it happen, because at the pace your government is working I believe we will see 2030 and you will still be asking for more time.

You ignored the question if the cost of transportation is the main ingredient of cost regardless of cost of production among other questions.
I used to think that one world government is a good idea, but not anymore, because I came to the conclusion that different populations deserve different fates.

I guess I didn't make myself clear, let's say something costs x amount, that's it, now what adds to the cost is transportation, so the less you pay for transportation the more profitable the product is, if you buy French wine it will probably be cheaper than a comparable wine made in Chile or South Africa. So your best trading partner just because of the distance has to be Europe, but with a hard Brexit you will make European products more expensive so you will probably suffer economically.
I am from Honduras, we unfortunately have a lot of sweat shops where clothes are made, it appears China and most third world Asian countries can make the clothes cheaper, yet we have the advantage in the US market because of two things, we can get the clothes there so much quicker and so much cheaper which is the reason the sweat shops are still in this country.
