Concerns about the post-Brexit economic situation abound as the new trade deal between the EU and the UK remains unsettled. In the face of such uncertainties, Lord John Eatwell will examine the UK’s current domestic politics and economic outlook. The discussion will also focus on the framework of trade negotiations and expectations from each party, while also exploring the potential for economic growth should a deal be reached.

What will happen to the United Kingdom if a Brexit deal cannot be reached? What are the main issues that need to be resolved to reach a deal? What is the timeframe for a deal-breaker?
