Brexiteers could of course try and persuade their infinitely superior opposition by pointing out those wonderful benefits of brexit...
Why can't they do they?
Meanwhile in the real world...
"A slump in business investment since Brexit has cost the UK around £29bn, or £1,000 per household, a Bank of England official has warned.
Jonathan Haskell, a rate-setter on the Monetary Policy Committee, said Britain had “suffered much more” on productivity because of the impact leaving the EU had on business investment.
He said in an interview with newsletter The Overshoot: “If you look in the period up to 2016, it’s true that we had a bigger slowdown in productivity up to 2016, but we had a lot of investment.
“We had a big boom between 2012-ish to 2016, but then investment just plateaued from 2016, and we dropped to the bottom of G-7 countries.”
And just to think that's just one aspect of the financial suicide note.
"Farmers received less than 0.5% of post-Brexit money last year"
Cuts to post-Brexit farming payments mean farms risk “going out of business” as new figures reveal only a tiny fraction of slashed EU subsidies went to agriculture businesses last year"
Imagine if one only had to pay £108 on average to belong to the biggest trading bloc in the world
And then there is the human cost...
"A 74-year-old British woman with severe Alzheimer’s has been threatened with deportation from Sweden over Brexit paperwork she was unable to complete because of her incapacitation.
Kathleen Poole lies bedridden in a dementia care home with no prospect of moving. Her family have told the Guardian that she is facing forced removal to the UK because she has not got an up-to-date passport and financial statements required under the new post-Brexit rules applying to British people in the EU"
This is repeated many times over, and millions of lives/life choices have been wrecked because of an ignorant xenophobic/racist hissy fit!
But then brexiteers have told us time and time and again...
They just don't care!
