It’s all so crap.
Yet again, a right total balls up that has cost a fortune, sent people below the poverty line and small businesses have gone broke never to come back.
What a mess.

Not only is nobody talking about the loss of GDP brexit has caused and continues to cause, they aren't talking about the enormous implementation and operational costs either. Like £5bn on Border checks, £30bn in settlements, £370m on the NI protocol, the costs of creating new regulatory bodies, etc.

With land values continually escalating that should be good deal.

One of the arguments that I remembered making was that any Brexit deal had to be sustainable. In the fact that we wouldn't need to make significant changes in the future. It was obvious that this would occur. How much money was and is being wasted on this
