What’s Next for Britain and the EU Post-Brexit?

FEATURING LUKE READER – Just days after the European Union voted overwhelmingly to finalize Britain’s divorce, the architect of the Brexit plan, Nigel Farage is attending President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address this week. The Brexit referendum and Trump’s election took place just weeks apart and remain linked as right-wing nationalist forces in both the US and UK celebrate on-going victories.

With Brexit to formally take effect soon, what will trade relations between the UK and US look like? And what sort of relationship will the UK maintain with the European Union?
