Excellent article and very interesting summary of what lies ahead for those two parties (E.U. and U.K.). I would add that it is not in the interest of E.U. to make it easy for U.K. to exit the Union. Doing so could encourage other nations of the Group of 27 to take the same approach. The economy of Britain will be in grave danger in the years to come. U.K. has to learn that the breakdown of a 44-year old relationship is not inconsequential.
