Japan.

If the EU can do a deal with Japan that entails no freedom of movement and no “common rule book”, and where the ECJ is not the final arbiter, why not the same for one with the UK? 

Actually, we know why.  It’s because of the “punishment” attitude of unelected EU commissioners and some EU politicians.   

One hardly needs to be a conspiracy theorist to ask the question, why are we putting up with this given the UK is still number 8 out of 137 nations in the World Economic Forum List of the most competitive global economies. And the UK remains at number 5 in the worlds biggest economies.
