Current Affairs EU In or Out

Who would have thought project fear would turn out to be project it's even worse than anyone could have imagined. Brexiteers have destroyed many a dream of their countrymen.

The country would be speeding along if it wasn't for doogooding anti-growth swines holding us back and making us go to speed awareness courses.

The argument seems to be

“Yeah Brexit has made everything worse… but you can’t blame Brexit for that”

Except it isn't. It's worse than anyone could have imagined because our politicians proscribed making our life worse than anyone could have imagined via lockdowns, shuttering the economy, supply chains, printing loads of money, taking on lots of debts, huge waiting lists, enforced vaccinations or you lose your job ... or you can blame Brexit.

If you are going to troll, try to have a specific line of conspiracy theory rather than a scattergun approach. Your current approach is too obvious and a bit dull.

A bit ?? You must have a high tolerance for stupidity

Raab please don't go Brexit needs you.

Just say no mate. Go on, admit it.

there's that but there's also the fact that he seems to be claiming that it's a relief that once again Britain is sourcing its food from New Zealand just like it did pre 1972. I can't imagine NZ supplied much food to the UK over 50 years ago, at least not to the levels you'd be nostalgic for.
The whole clip is nonsense.

Yeah, the magic era of Britain being 'alright' is something quite a few older folk I know cite when we chat about Brexit. I wasn't alive then, but my suspicion is that then, as now, quite a bit was crap and some parts of life were alright. Its never perfect, life, right?

I see the IMF have had to revise their forecasts again regarding the U.K. economy and now suggest growth will be higher than Germany, who I can only assume are also suffering from Brexit…….

the further you fall, the greater the ground there is to make up.

Wasn’t really the full story though was it Pete …. The IMF don’t expect any changes until at least 2025 at the earliest


Edit … In living standards

I see Germany is now in recession, bleeding Brexit strikes again. Oh no wait, I expect there will be lots of excuses and reasons why this has happened, Covid, Ukraine War, Energy price rises etc…good job we didn’t have any of that……

That's like saying Man city are crap because Utd won the league cup. deary me.

Nope. It’s like saying that reasons that other countries will suggest affected their economy are ignored by certain people in the U.K. because everything must be blamed on Brexit….
