UK businesses need more detail on Brexit, says IoD

MPs are returning to Parliament for a new session that's expected to be dominated by Brexit, and Downing Street says the Government want to 'intensify' the pace of talks with the EU. All of this will be watched closely by UK the business community. Stephen Martin, Director General of the Institute of Directors, speaks to Ian King.

there is literally no point of leaving the EU now judging by that divorce bill. It's said that it could take decades to pay off that amount and we're pretty much doing that right now as part of the EU. This process is doomed and the only way is to pull back altogether

I think it is going to be impossible for the EU to offer a better deal than the one Norway has. And that means, accepting free movement of people, accepting ECJ laws, continue paying. Anything better would not help the relationshipof the EU to Norway, which is more important to the EU. The other option is simply WTO trading rules, if the UK ever joins the WTO. Anything between these two options is possible. As this is certainly not what dreamland UK expects, it is important for the EU to nail down the divorce bill before trade talks begin. Pretty simple...
