Here’s an idea to fix the issue: Rejoin the EU.
Be part of the industrial strategy – try and grow some sectors in the UK – accept Brexit was, is and was always going to be a catastrophe, and rejoin.
The Soviet Union tried something similar although to be fair it was on a much larger and dictatorial scale. If you try to make everything in house it leads to massive inefficiencies, waste and firms become increasingly uncompetitive. Costs rise and the consumer pays more for a substandard product.
Europe does not come close to consuming all its produces so if they raise import barriers even more then other countries reciprocate and make European exports even more expensive reducing demand and the cycle continues.
The EU know all this so the Commission will hopefully do the usual and encourage local production but not mandate it. The current supply chains stay pretty much the same and where there is friction a deal can be done to mitigate it.
