They don't need wholesale replacement. Or much replacement at all.
And *breaking news* we traded with Europe before the existence of the EU. Also, you obviously haven't noticed, EU members also trade with countless countries that aren't EU members.

Perhaps.
But the world of international trade and commerce, and the legal power of the WTO, will be forever beyond your ken.

it pains me to say
but Benny is right on this. Our trade has benefited enormously fron the single market - championed by Mrs T. We do more business with Ireland (pop. 4.7 million) than with China (pop 1.4 billion).

Define trade. Numbers/units etc. Sources.
Ireland needs the UK more than the EU in terms of trade. Also, why propagate the myth that such trade will cease when we leave a economic bloc. No one buys goods or services on the basis of origin (AOC type stuff excluded). They buy it because they want it.

The EU has trade restrictions...
...so the reason we trade more with Ireland than, say, China is because we are required to. Open up the market and we will trade how we used to with who we want to and businesses around the world will be able to do the same. In other words proper free trade. That includes European countries whose companies will still want to do business with the UK whether part of the EU or not.
