    While the UK 16% of EU GDP, that will be minimised by Scotland's & Northern Ireland exit from Britian.
    In the interim, developing Chinese trade with the EU will quickly compensate for that, IMO.

    China has already bought a shipping port in NE Greece as part of its Belt & Road project and intends to
    connect the ex Soviet countries of Eastern Europe via a new high speed rail project China has already bought a disused
    airport NE of Athens to build housing for Chinese workers & Chinese tourists to complement this ptoject.

    Earlier this year XI has visited Greece, Italy & Germany stitching up deals which preclude the USA.

    Thirty years ago the economic centre of global GDP was in the Athlantic and now it is in the Middle East and rapidly heading
    eastwards.

    While Boris may have won the election, he may be loosing the economic war, IMO for the sake of English Nationalism.
