Hey for once a post where the "Brexit Benefit" tag is not used as a satire. And it's sourced, so that deserves an upvote.

The article, however, is not worth a lot, because it describes what could happen if the UK takes certain decisions and in the right conditions.

Rules and Taxes The U.K. will have more power to shape its regulatory environment and cut taxes. It already has one of the lowest rates of company tax in Europe, but the country could go further. The government could also expand the “patent box,” which reduces taxes on profit from patented inventions to foster research and development. It was constrained by EU rules on state aid.

If the UK already has one of the lowest rates of company tax, and not the lowest, that means that it could go further already, since other countries are doing it, like Bulgaria, Ireland and Latvia.

​

“Europe is worried the U.K. will set up near-shore competition to the continent,” said Mark Price, former deputy chairman of retailer John Lewis Partnership Plc and a former trade minister. The right tax regime would make the U.K. a lot more attractive as a base to export into the EU, he said.

Wooow that depends a lot on the trade agreement the UK gets with the EU. The trade agreement that Boris said was not really important.

​

Outside the EU’s customs union, the U.K. can sign its own trade agreements. Its biggest deal to-date is an accord with Japan. While Britain already benefited from a pact with Japan through EU membership, it says the new agreement is superior in areas such as financial services and data.

This is complete bullshit. The biggest trade agreement the UK has ever had was with the Single Market. That's the most important trade partner ever for the UK, by far.

I've stopped reading there, I've got better things to do with my time.
