    Wow Kent Magpie, an admission that we have actually done something better than Germany and France, I bet that was a struggle for you.
    So that is your benchmark for Brexit being a success? Instead of being bottom of the G7 economies, we are now third bottom! I'm sure the idea was that Brexit would put us on top. In my opinion, this is what clinched the vote:

    PROMISES

    1. We take control of our borders and stop illegal immigrants.
    2. The NHS will get an extra £350 million per week instead of the cash going to the EU.
    3. We will all be better off if we leave.

    REALITY

    1. We have taken control of our borders, and illegal immigration has increased dramatically.
    2. The NHS is in crisis and waiting lists are still increasing.
    3. We are in a cost of living crisis unheard of for decades.

    Brexit has been an abject failure, but I'm sure GB News will report the opposite.

      Well if it was completed properly, just being able to make our own decisions would be enough for me. Obviously it would help if those in charge were behind the country, and not members of the WEF.
      Off course I forgot, we have imposed the wrong Brexit.Please advise me what the correct Brexit should have been implemented?

          Any satnav would say "Recalculating route, turn back where possible".

                He didn't... he said that we have measured by a different means and until they calculate their figures the same way we have you can't say who performed better.

                    Probably if more of the young could be bothered to vote it might have had a different result.

                      Happy to help. That's not how Ofcom works. It doesn't pre-scrutinise and "pass" programmes. It has codes and rules, and it receives, processes, and adjudicates on viewer complaints. If you think what you saw broke any of those codes/rules, you can complain.

                        If we are being picky it didn't actually say the NHS would get £350 million on the side of the bus, it said let's fund the NHS it didn't say how much.

                          I wasn't on about the poster on the bus that only implied it, I was on about the posters that specifically said "Let's give our NHS the £350 million the EU takes every week".

                          Let me guess, you didn't see them!

                          If that's the case:

                            • Newish Pie, I have complained to the BBC before, and always been fobbed off. The thing I find so remarkable, is that there were 'apparently' 8.000 complaints about Lawrence Fox, which seems extraordinarily high, given who is likely to have watched that programme and the overall viewing figures.
