It means they have absolutely no withdrawal agreements in place, at the time the leave is finalised.
It means that the UK does NOT get 21months + more to slowly adjust to the new ways of doing things.
There will be a day where suddenly, when no trade can happend again until, you have deals in place again and worked out the bussiness side of things.
UK bussiness will have to follow the law, so there will be a delay periode where they probably cant do much bussiness.
UK reverts to World Trade Rules, on international trade, and lose the benefits the single markets gave them (when dealing with other EU countries).
Tarrifs would force the prices of certain things up, and could result in some UK work force being moved away from the UK.
UK gains controll over immigration.
However UK citizens working the EU might find their qualifications no longer apply in the EU, and wont be able to work there based on them anymore.
There would have to be much tougher safty controll when sailing or flying between EU and UK.
UK can choose to adopt, the laws they supported, when they where members of the EU, and put them into their own.
UK no longer has to follow EU court of law, or the EU court of Human Rights.
The UK doesnt have to pay a member fee anymore (~13bn).
The farmers wont get ~4bn back from the EU as support to their industry. You might see food prices rise in the UK.
There will be a Hard Border placed between Northen Irland and Southern Irland.
You might need a pass to cross over from one to another, and pass through safty checks.
Thats about it.
