Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his Conservative allies have touted a free-trade agreement with the U.S. as a solution to Britain's expected post-Brexit economic woes.
A hard break with the EU may necessitate checks and security infrastructure at the border, which is currently unmanned. This could spark anger among nationalists and make any facilities a target for renewed attacks.
Western Union noted that the U.K. was ranked especially highly by energy, commodities and mining firms. The U.S. edged out the EU 53 percent to 52 percent, respectively, with China in a fairly distant third on 32 percent. Behind them were Australia on 23.5 percent and New Zealand on 14.4 percent. The looming election—the first December vote in more than a century—may bring some much-needed clarity to the Brexit tangle.
