    That's not good either though is it? It means it's harder and more expensive to get things than it would have been. Many businesses have closed due to Brexit, many have been hanging on by a thread.

    Inflation is spiralling out of control, interest rates are going to go up, and spending is going to go down. 2023 is going to be a disaster.

    Well I voted leave and to be honest, I wouldn't do the same again. I'd abstain on another vote. I could never endorse an unelected, unaccountable EU I'm afraid. With hindsight, hard-Brexit under a hard-right-government was always going to be bad news for the vast majority of us.

    The whole world has economic issues, sure, but the UK is in a league of its own, and self-inflicted. Thanks, brexiteers.

    I read today that our trade with the EU, by far our largest trading partner is down 16% compared to where it would have been without Brexit. That might not sound like a lot, but in economic terms it's huge.

    Is anyone going to admit the bleeding obvious, that Brexit was a mistake? I'll have a huge admiration for anyone brave enough.
    At this moment in time it's a huge mistake and I regret voting the way I did .

    However I'd like to have a good look at a Labour government managing our country outside of the EU before I totally die on the hill called Brexit .

    Boris won’t get the 100 nominations required to run for leader.
    Penny v Rishi.

    Grist and others make me smile. Would they have made such excuses for a labour leader ? Nah the tories can do nowt wrong. Blinkered or what?

    These tories could eat their grand kids and they would make some lame excuse in their defence.

    No it’s not good. You do know the inflation rate in the EU is higher than the UK? The little matter of covid and this potty conflict in Ukraine might just have impacted trade a little as well.

    Many business owners can thank a large swell of remainers who were never going to accept a democratic vote. It’s done. Maybe we’ll be back soon. I’d wager the break up of the EU is just as likely.

    You’re a perfect example of a strong minded individual who can’t accept a result they didn’t agree with and will blame it for anything. Brexit isn’t solely to blame for what’s coming.

    We have no parliamentarians at Westminster who are really fit to govern this country. It’s clear for everyone to see. It’s like watching a 3rd rate reality show with Katie Price, Kerry Katina and Joey Es*** involved.

    Probably.

    What odds a breakaway party or two before the end of the year?

    Johnson broke Covid rules so he had to go, but they want Sunak to be PM who also broke Covid rules.

    They're not being honest with us.
