The main reason that leaving the EU is such a Bad Idea is that the rest of the EU is unlikely to agree to a free trade deal. After all, if one could trade freely with EU countries, why would one put up with all the baggage...?

And if you got the right to do what you think is best for you, so does the EU, everyone should be happy.
Same goes for Africa of course, since that was the topic.
