Eu panic: britain set to benefit from brussels' greatest fear

The Bruges Group director Robert Oulds insisted the UK had the capability to become an international success after fulfiling Brexit. During an interview with Express.co.uk, Mr Oulds claimed

after cutting ties with the EU, Britian would be free to implement its own tax strategies. He said the EU was against low corporation tax as this had the potential to undermine the economies

of France and Germany. However, if Britain was to utilise this opportunity, the UK could see a massive surge in international investment for companies who want a foothold in Europe,

according to Mr Oulds. He also noted this will frustrate the EU as this will make the UK a viable alternative to European member states.  Mr Oulds said: "The European Union does not

like that, they do not like low corporation tax and they don't like tax competition. "They believe it is harmful, what they mean by that is that it is undermining countries like

Germany and France which have higher corporation tax. "They don't like other countries competing with them even if the country has decided itself." DON'T MISS: EU PANIC:

"If Britain runs a good tax policy and takes advantage of the benefits that exist in the UK Britain will succeed. "We will need to utilise the UK's biggest asset which is the

British people and the skills, energy, creativity and drive the people have. "This is actually the best way of getting the economy moving when we fully come out of this coronavirus

crisis. "What that has meant is another reason why the Irish are very unhappy with the EU because Germany, in particular, wants Ireland to change its tax policy. "Germany does not

want Ireland to be running a competitive economy. "Ireland, of course, has a much smaller population and less of an industrial base so they have to compete when it comes to taxation.

"That is one way they have managed to keep jobs within the Republic of Ireland."
