Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Patrick Grady (Scottish National Party). It was answered on Wednesday, 13 September 2023 on behalf of the Northern Ireland Office.
UK Departure from EU
- Question
-
We had a really good trading relationship with the European Union—it was called membership—and 78% of people in Glasgow North, and 62% of people across Scotland, voted to retain it. If Brexit is really delivering the successes that the Secretary of State says it is, why does he think the polls show that those figures would be even higher if the people of Scotland had the choice again?
- Answer
-
The recent trading numbers show that we are now doing more trade with the EU in goods and services than we did when we were members.
