Brexit: What the Hell Happens Now?

Descriere

'Magnificent' - Ben Goldacre
'Highly recommended' - Nick Cohen, Observer/Spectator


An essential quick guide to Brexit. 

Journalist Ian Dunt reveals how leaving the EU will hit law, politics and business. 

Based on expert advice, this revised edition of his 2017 bestseller reveals the true story of Britain's biggest issue, stripped of the gloss put on it by its cheerleaders.

It is incisive and important, and growing more so by the day. Reviewers have praised the book's intelligence and brevity.

Reviews 

'Excellent. A must-read. Harass every MP until they read Dunt's book' - AC Grayling

'I would strongly recommend this excellent guide. Dunt has taken the extraordinary step of asking a set of experts what they think. I learnt a lot.' - Philip Collins, Prospect

Magnificent, informative, brief, on WTO, Single Market, Customs Union, and all the boring stuff you now need to understand...' - Ben Goldacre

A definitive account of just how much confusion and ignorance has surrounded this entire debate.' - James O'Brien, LBC

'Compact and easily digestible. I would encourage anyone who is confused, fascinated or frustrated by Brexit to read this book. You will be far wiser by the end of it.'
- Caroline Lucas, Co-Leader, Green Party

'Tory right-wingers who weep for the days when Britannia ruled the waves need not bother with this book. Nor will it be of interest to [left-wing] fantasists. Everyone else could learn a great deal.' - James Coldwell, Fabian Review

'If you are looking for a good guide to Brexit and what comes next, I can recommend What the Hell Happens Now?' - Tom Watson, Deputy Leader, Labour Party

What is special about this book? It is fast-paced and informative - and it is based on extensive research with experts across the law, trade and politics. Michael Gove may think that the British public has had enough of experts, but Ian Dunt and Canbury Press disagree. 

The reality is becoming more apparent by the day from Britain's vexed negotiations with Brussels: Brexit is likely to damage Britain badly. 

Dunt, the editor of Politics.co.uk, explains why exiting the EU will: 

*make the UK poorer

*leave industries like pharmaceuticals and finance struggling to operate

*threatens to break up the United Kingdom

Brexit: What the Hell Happens Now? deals with the trade and legal cliff edge that Britain faces unless it secures a transitional deal with the European Union; why the odds are stacked against the UK government in the negotiations; and how the World Trade Organisation is not the solution to leaving the EU. 

In brief, it paints the real picture of a country about to undergo a sharp and self-inflicted isolation. It is a perfect guide to Brexit to read before taking on All Out War by Tim Shipman or Nick Clegg's How To Stop Brexit. 

Most of all, it is a book is for people who still believe in evidence and reason.
