I disagree with the statement, but more importantly the statement is extremely anti-Brexit when you think of it. You are saying Brexit is even worse for the for the EU than Britain... Not that Brexit is good for either. The best Brexit would be good for both, but we all know that is not reality.
The EU, like the rest of the world, has problems. They have been made slightly worse by Brexit. The worst part of Brexit for the EU is losing the moderating force of the UK. No one ever talks about that, but the UK was an excellent force for making the EU better.
Meanwhile, the UK is losing a huge market, and is stuck trying to untangle a complex web. The EU does not need to worry about untangling things, it can just cutoff the UK. Worse yet, there are no good deals out there. The USA is not going to make a new trade deal, we do not have the political stability to do that. There is nothing on the table. No one else will either. The UK just broke its word to the EU, and besides, the EU sees no point in handing the UK a win, so they definitely will not hand the UK a deal.
Seriously, can anyone name a major economy willing to hand the UK a huge win? The UK needs a white collar services, especially financial services, trade deal more than anything else. Those are nearly impossible, even without all the current problems.
