the institute of economic affairs director general, mark littlewood. thoughts on how this takes place? part of the reason the uk is underperforming where you see strength elsewhere in europe is because there has been some waffling, she doesn't seem to have a mandate. do you see this taking place? >> it is going to happen but that begs the question of what kind do we get? do we have a clean break from the european union or do we stay in regulatory alignment with the european union? the closer we stay to the e.u. in a whole range of areas the more limited we are in pursuing relationships. if we are in close regulatory alignment it will be difficult if not impossible to strike a free-trade deal with the united states of america. the prime minister is at a country retreat with top members of the brexit subcommittee and hopefully teresa may will come down on one side or the other. she has been balancing both sides. that is a mode of political survival. >> is there a way for britain to get a free-trade agreement with the eu, not with regulatory structure? >>
