Brexit has made Britain weaker, less secure, more divided and much poorer. In the latest proof, OECD says U.K. will be worst performing economy in G7 next year. And remember Tories boasting of ‘taking back control of our borders’. Now the day of reckoning is here for Rishi Sunak

I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't laugh but really ? So now EU citizens can freely enter Gibraltar (a UK Overseas Territory) but British citizens cannot without a passport check and an EU visa. How much more Brexit damage are British people going to tolerate?

Woman asks on Question Time why no-one is even mentioning Brexit?

When it is the biggest economic problem Britain has ever had.

The Single Market has to be entered.

Nothing short of an absolute drubbing of the Tories is required to send the message that corporate governance, systemic corruption, fleecing of public wealth to the rich, culture wars, climate change denial, Rwanda deportations, predatory capitalism, austerity policies, Brexit…

And … the economic damage is not the worst part of Brexit. Speak to anyone involved in the diplomatic world and they will tell you that British influence is severely diminished. And that is a very bad thing indeed in an increasingly unstable world. How anyone in government with…

The opposite of just about everything Johnson and his pals in the media told us would happen has now happened. Surely it’s time we talked about Brexit?

It’s completely untrue to say that EVERYONE in work will see a tax cut worth £900 - the average worker only stands to save about £340 in 2024/25 while those earning less than £26,000 a year will actually be worse off!

Businesses have, of course, already passed on the costs & like all businesses added some. Here is a medium sized Spanish orange bought from our small, sole local greengrocer, in the shires. It cost 75p last week, 95p today. Brexit is mad & bad.

Personally, I think we need exemplary punishments for those who led the UK into this catastrophe. I am serious about this. Mogg, Johnson, Gove, Farage, the idiot Hannan, Digby Jones & others, exemplary punishments to remove their freedom of movement to go anywhere for many years.

🔴 Brexit tax will add billions of pounds to the cost of doing business with our biggest trading partner.

🔴The Tories lied about Brexit which is a war on the British people, it’s self sanctioning!

🔴 Food will be more expensive,
less varied and shorter in supply.

🔴 The…

Brace yourself.
Thanks for fuck all, Brexiters, you bloody idiots, you.
#BrexitBrokeBritain and it’s about to get even worse.

Watch and weep for every good thing we lost because a few elderly racists didn’t like hearing foreign voices on public transport...... 😢😢😢😢

Bizarre passive aggressive laughter, arrogance and petulance considering he’s a third choice PM, picked in a posh lottery of rejects after TWO other Tory PMs were ousted in scandal and now he’s squatting No 10.

Just call the election you weird bastard.

Really good, detailed reporting on what Brexit means in practice for food imports from the EU.

Nicely summed up by: “'Now we’re back to the mid-70s,' said Christian Pedersen, head of operations for the route at Danish shipping firm DFDS, referring to the new Brexit checks.'
