Boris Johnson has apparently assured US financial organisations (HERE) that they will still be able to maintain access to the EU through the passporting arrangements that their London based subsidiaries enjoy at the moment. The French finance minister says we can't.
What makes Boris think we can still set the rules after we leave he doesn't say. He simply thinks it wouldn't be in the EU's interest. In other words it would be irrational. But surely no more irrational than a vote to withdraw from the EU that he encouraged? Since he has already been accused, in a press conference with John Kerry, of telling outright lies it is not clear if any of the financial organisations believed him.
