“Without an economy you have nothing “
Someone said this once . It’s true . Because stuff your economy and all the other things get knackered also .
The problem with brexit which people forget is what they were promised . Money for nhs , easy trade deals , keep the immigrants out - take back control !! Hurrah !
Sounds amazing ! - reality is a bitch .
We had a half way deal by being in the EU . Not perfect by any means . But our economy has grown by being in the EU ; cheap Labour , London’s access to EU financial markets etc etc
Equally the EU doesn’t ‘get’ what the U.K. wants . The only phrase left to chirp is ‘ sovereignty ‘ . Not sure exactly what that is . Will the US or China roll over for us - no . Far bigger economies than ours . Unfortunately we were part of the largest trading block on the planet .
Whilst you can argue quite reasonably about dumb EU rules on bananas and fishing etc. - the bigger picture is what we need to look at .
Public were largely sold a lie - now government has to deliver some half baked mess that makes no one happy .
Sensible hat off - screw up some pipework hat on .
