"As part of being in the EU" ?

If you are correct (which I'd question) the EU will lose out on their percentage yes, another loss for them, we hold the cards and if our negotiating experts worked for OUR Country instead of feathering their own nests we would hold a much more stronger hand.

As for losing those 50 trade deals, so what, its called leaving that false organisation and building new deals with the rest of the World, the EU is not the bee all and end all of trade, they will suffer, and so will we in the short term, but long term we will thrive and the EU will be on its knees trying to kiss our arse, instead of us kissing theirs.
