We need to sign into international free trade agreements, negotiate new plans with the US & EU, speak with the Germans, the Americans, the Chinese- this is why we have a Trade Department. The role of this Department is to find the platform from which this country can export its business around the world.
Our economy hasn't collapsed. The City felt a hit- it is not the end of the world. We are still very much capable of negotiating, if not more so, and are very much capable of making business work. By emulating the Singapore-style free market economy, London can become (or remain) the centre-hub for international business in the North Atlantic, which is extremely possible due to the reasons and aims I have outlined.
I am not claiming that our economy is going to collapse, just that will not be as good as it would have been if we remained in the EU. We are going to lose the business that came about because of our position in the EU and the Anglosphere. Any business that we negotiate to replace the business lost because of Brexit, was potentially always there. We have not gained business opportunities because of Brexit, we have to put in the effort to make up for the short fall caused by what we have thrown away. We are particularly going to weaken out position as a financial centre.
