with me now is our reality check correspondent chris morris — lots of economic models flying around —hem down? it's worth remembering that the current negotiations, which must be resolved soon, must be about the divorce, about leaving, where these economic models are about the future, where are we going to end 7 future, where are we going to end up? because people want to know the direction of travel before they sign up direction of travel before they sign up to the divorce. the one we have most about is canada, which is basically shorthand for a basic free trade agreement. it would be a more distant relationship, economic, with the eu than we have now. a free trade agreement is nothing like being in the single market. we would being in the single market. we would be more independent, but there would be more independent, but there would be board issues, friction with trade. what about if you zip canada up trade. what about if you zip canada upa bit, trade. what about if you zip canada up a bit, super canada, boris johnson calls it, or you can add some pluses and wit. there was no reas

i would like to take on a couple of the points with chris morris.illion gain for the treasury if britain traded under wto rules. where does that 80 billion figure come from?m rests on a set of assumptions which, to be fair, many economists disagree with. one is there will be long—term gains from free trade at about a% of gdp. other models say very different lives. —— differently. the brexit study says things differently. the thing is they are convinced that their modelling is right and eve ryo ne their modelling is right and everyone else has got it wrong but there is no doubt they are in a minority because most economists believe that, because trade is likely to be cut in the event of a clea n likely to be cut in the event of a clean brexit or heart brexit, is that trade overall will suffer. saving money they said 12 billion one year net which goes to the eu budget. if you look at the figures it is probably about 11 billion pounds. the financial settlement, we could pay almost non—or very little of that. theoretically you could do that but the repo

let's get more on this now with our reality check correspondent chris morris.aves the eu without a deal in march 29 —— march 2019, the airlines would lose access to the airlines would lose access to the eu saw in the flights would be grounded. we heard philip hammond in the past tell a parliamentary committee that this is a possibility in theory. what these papers are doing is, if there is nothing to replace what we have at the moment and we leave us no deal at all, then in terms of aviation, it would be very difficult to see an immediate aftermath —— in the immediate aftermath —— in the immediate aftermath of that happening, flights taking off and landing. what about haulage? one of the report is about haulage? one of the report is about haulage permits. a licence for drivers to drive across europe and where the stuff in the back of the lorry is goods, the drivers are providing a service and at the moment you can just drive across the european union without any permits. 0ne european union without any permits. one of the report has been issued today and we're s

the bbc‘s reality check correspondent chris morris is here with me., there are other option, is he right? i think he probably is, because we are sort of comparing two different thing, it is not right to say it is no deal or my deal, because no deal refers to the immediate negotiation about a withdrawal agreement. the terms for leaving the eu. if we reach an agreement, then, at this stage, there isn't going to be a no deal scenario, we have this 21 month transition but it is only then you start to negotiate in detail on the future trade agreement which is what chequers is about. at that stage, you could say all bids are open again, it could be staying in the single market, a bit like norway, it could be much more like a pure free trade agreement like canada which what some of the brexiteers are advocating. to say back me or we crash out you can see why politically she is saying that, it speaks to the division we have seen within the conservative party but it is not really an accurate representation of the choices we are faced with. we are here, six mon

with me now is our reality check correspondent chris morris.we break them down? one of the interesting things is that all of them are essentially talking about the future, whereas negotiations at the moment of trying to sort out the divorce and what has happened in the past, you need to know where you're going to finish negotiations now. the model being talked about a lot is canada, that basically is a shorthand for a basic free trade agreement, they tied the eu has with canada. it would mean a more distant economic relationship between the uk and eu. we would be more distant but create more fiction in trade. people have looked at that and said, shall we zip that up and go for it super canada, as boris johnson calls it, but add a variety of pluses to canada. the thing is, you will still have border checks. no matter how many pluses are at the end! the big problem with that for the uk and eu is that it won't solve the uk and eu is that it won't solve the problem of a hard border in ireland. tell us about some of the models being talked about? th
