Article summary: EU doesn't systematically invest in Africa to benefit the average African.
This is true. This has always been true (especially compared to China). Brexit doesn't change this.
Somehow I don't think that the likes of good old Farage would be thrilled by this.
One positive thing to out of Brexit is the prospect of Britain turning into Hong Kong 2.0.
The EU is highly protectionist, very similar to china.
Why should an EU farmer get an higher wage than an African farmer ?
the EU is most likely to start treating the UK just like it treats african countries. It will increase tariffs for financial services to prop up its own domestic one.
This is not a bad thing for the UK, the UK could learn to start trading with a much more potentially lucrative group of african countries. Africa has a lot more primary resources then Europe and the UK could potentially help open up the block just it it did for the EU.
