 I suppose it would be great for the minority of people who still believe Brexit was a good idea, if they could turn around today and claim a booming economy, great growth, low inflation, rising living standards and a truly United Kingdom. Oh well .... I guess they can dream |

£340bn exports to the EU, £168bn exports to the USA.
Compare to our exports before the referendum.
Yes, there's no reason to complain.
It worked.

The remoaners didn't care about running down our industries and ruining our economy putting hundreds of thousands out of work, only freedom of movement matters to the Eurocult. It's the only significant thing missing from our FTA and we're now selling more to the EU than we ever did as members. And yes, the pound was overvalued before the referendum. www.ft.com/content/ec6bef86-1653-11e4-8210-00144feabdc0www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/imf-cautions-that-pound-is-overvalued-9634382.htmlGood thing it isn't now. |

Someone who buys a car imported from France instead of one built in UK certainly replaces our own products. How daft do you have to be to not see that..  |

What's been damaged by Brexit? A lot of things have been damaged by Covid and the Ukraine war but I can't think of anything that's been damaged by Brexit. These polls are rigged to lead people to a desired result, which is why these corporate Left sites only publish them when it goes their way.
In reality many who voted leave are disappointed with the current Conservative government, which looks to be going through an internal sabotage whilst the corrupt civil service are working with Labour to overthrow democratically elected MPs. If you think back these same odious scumbags were trying to overturn the democratic result to leave the EU using the courts and foreign agitators.
Yes, we have problems at Westminster, but this is of no fault to those who voted Leave. The real question people should be asking is why the Westminster establishment continues in failing to represent the electorate. These are the questions that should be asked.
Oh, gawd! Now the polls are rigged. Is that it -- the polls are rigged??  |

We'd have to join the Euro, Schengen, the Customs Union, the Single Market, the Common Agricultural Policy, the Common Fisheries Policy and these policies are all fucking SHIT.
Not only that, there wouldn't be a rebate.
And considering how badly the Europhiles tried to make their case last time, the case for full membership is dead and buried.
We have a free trade agreement with the EU and it's working better than membership did.
There's no reason to throw our sovereignty away and pay £20bn a year in order to sell LESS to the EU than we are now selling, and sacrifice our ability to do bilateral free trade agreements with non members.
The Europhiles are absolutely delusional.

And they trust the EU more than their own government.
How much higher do the polls have to climb before the Brexiters have to admit they no longer represent democracy.
