The crushing defeat of Theresa May’s Brexit deal by Parliament has made it likelier that the UK will leave the EU without any formal agreement, a scenario that many businesses regard as a ‘disaster’.

Diverging rules on financial regulation and data are another worry, as well as losing access to European venture funding.
