    EU Trade Commission says you conclude leaving, then begin negotiating and trade under WTO's during that period.

    The European Union's top trade official says the UK cannot begin negotiating terms for doing business with the bloc until after it has left.
    "First you exit then you negotiate," Cecilia Malmstrom told BBC Newsnight.
    After Brexit, the UK would become a "third country" in EU terms, she said - meaning trade would be carried out based on World Trade Organisation rules until a new deal was complete.

    If the uk left and got fair terms there would be a rush for the door and the eu would be finished, they are going to make an example of them to keep the eu

    Absolutely I certainly believe that they are going to make it very tough for the UK. I think the claims from the Leave campaign that it would be a simple negotiation to get the UK access to the single market has just been torpedoed under the waterline based on Cecilia Malmstrom's comments.
