On 12 July 2018 the UK government published a white paper outlining its vision for the UK’s future relationship with the European Union (EU) after the UK’s exit from the EU on 29 March 2019. The white paper is predicated on the UK’s exit from the Single Market and the Customs Union and outlines the government’s desire to establish a new “deep and comprehensive” economic partnership with the EU, as well as establishing an independent trade policy in its dealings with other partners.
