(Slaps self on forehead) Duh!

That's what I get for writing that in a rush and editing on the fly (changing from imports to exports) without proof-checking :-(

The point I was aiming to make is that we, of course, import *more* from the EU than we export, so *imports* will become more expensive, which will have a deleterious effect on our balance of trade.
