Yes the shortfall in money for already-stretched public services that results from any tax cuts can be made up by the unicorns that will be floating around delivering gold to hospitals.
Like we've all noted before, you really are a different level of idiot.Hard Brexit now!

This was how international travellers did it before the EU finally limited roaming charges in June 2017.

Landline call costs across Europe to the best of my knowledge weren't limited despite the EU being about for 40+ years, which is another thing I was hinting at. We used VOIP, Muxes , Private lines and local breakout to avoid these costs because they were so enormous.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

You just don't get it. Take a look at the charges from non-EU to EU on your own links. Moreover, you have the added inconvenience of having yet another mobile number to give to business associates and friends.

Brexiters are clutching at straws to find excuses for the negative consequences of Brexit.
EU to UK pricing & vice versa was much lower than Africa before the EU limited it a year ago so yes the calls costs will be higher on the link I showed.
And if it becomes an issue the mobile companies will be undercut by alternative solutions. The most likely one being a redirect to a voip line and / or a native sim. That was what we did with travelling executives 15 years ago when it was a real rip off, we stopped doing that about 2009 well before the EU got excited.
Not clutching at straws, I was using it professionally 30 years ago. We had customers that used muxes on leased lines and break outs in each country, in fact they still do, the world is bigger than the EU.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
