• Countries are likely to offer the United Kingdom worse trade deals than it currently enjoys as an EU member, the former head of Liam Fox's International Trade Department has told Business Insider.
• "The United Kingdom alone can offer significantly less in terms of market access or government procurement than can all of the European Union," Donnelly said.

• "Trade negotiators are not sentimental," Donnelly said.
