Brexit Con #FBPE

Let the Brexit alight nowhere or to the IMF it could go.

[Paul Birch @Wakethefitup]

The Beeb, Sky & the Tabloids wanted Cameron, they wanted #Brexit, they wanted May, they wanted Johnson, they ignored Partygate, they even wanted Truss, they wanted Sunak and now they're behind Mirage/Farage...maybe, maybe it's time the UK ignored them & thought for themselves.

Augustus Pugin, the architect responsible for the gothic design of Big Ben's clock tower was the son of a french immigrant who fled the French Revolution

Sick to death of this cunt lecturing us about hard work. When he was an MEP he was 748th out of 751 for attendance, attended 1 out 42 meetings when he was on the EU fisheries committee, has one of the lowest attendance records in Parliament, and never shows up in his constituency

[Liz Webster @LizWebsterSBF]

Brexit Britain is a rare modern case study: a rich country that deliberately raised barriers to trade and cooperation and is paying the price.

The result is clear and inescapable: lower growth, lower productivity, lower wages, and permanent relative decline.

It’s also a flashing red warning to any country flirting with economic nationalism or the fantasy that sovereignty can replace integration.

The cost of Brexit is now measurable, compounding and totally devastating.

"Frankly the UK is seen by China as just a smaller player these days ... Post Brexit in particular. Brexit just confuses the Chinese. Macron on the other hand has been here a number of times, the Germans also"

"Interesting to see the brutal reality of how we're seen on the world stage ..."
@SkyNews👇

But weren't we told Brexit was all about "opening up to the new exciting markets in Asia ?"

[Stan Collymore @StanCollymore]

Nothing quite comes across as "fresh and new ideas" quite like a bunch of fucking chancers who the electorate rejected massively, who were involved in wholesale corruption during Covid ( PPI contracts), who've jumped ship because they can sniff another chance to do the same.

[Liz Webster @LizWebsterSBF]

‼️ Brexit was sold as cutting red tape and shrinking the state.

Reality?

Civil service numbers are at a 20-year high 👉because Brexit created paperwork, duplication and permanent crisis management.

Taking back control meant building a bigger bureaucracy to cope with self-inflicted damage.

🔥 Brexit didn’t crash the British economy. It did something worse.

The Economist says Brexit acts like a toxin in the bloodstream of the UK economy 👉binding itself to our long-standing weaknesses and dulling our real strengths.

It’s locked in high energy costs, weak investment or short-termism

After the Brexit vote:
• Business investment flatlined for six years
• Manufacturing exports fell sharply
• Services exports are 4–5% lower than they would have been
• Trade “wins” turned out to be trivial
• Regulatory freedom delivered paperwork, not growth

Brexit has become a permanent drag, keeping us stuck on a low-growth path while politicians argue about numbers instead of reality.

And that’s why “Brexit is done” is such a dangerous lie.

It isn’t done for the economy.
It isn’t done for trade.
It isn’t done for people whose lives and livelihoods were built on EU rights.

The damage didn’t end in 2020.
It’s still unfolding.

🆘 3 hour airport queues
🛟 Chlorinated chicken 🐓
🆘 Hormone-treated beef 🐮
🛟 Digital ID baked into tech deals
🆘 And a slide of the NHS towards private healthcare

This isn’t a series of accidents. It’s the same model everywhere: more surveillance, lower standards, higher costs, less democratic control.

Brexit didn’t take back control, it handed leverage to others. And Keir Starmer is now asking the public to absorb the consequences.

This is the real price of the “reset” without fixing the fundamentals.

The Telegraph now admitting the deal they campaigned for with Australia on agriculture is a disaster after saying it would be great for British farmers…

No prizes for guessing who signed the deal…

😡 Another Brexit dividend.

The World Travel & Tourism Council is moving its HQ from London to Madrid, citing Brexit barriers to talent mobility and loss of single market access.

London’s loss. Europe’s gain.

[Edwin Hayward @edwinhayward]

On the eve of the 2016 Brexit referendum, the Daily Mail published a long editorial with 10 reasons to leave the EU. Reason 5 was too many immigrants from Eastern Europe.

Yesterday, they put out a piece moaning about the huge number of Poles who've left the UK since Brexit.

Certainly did

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

We estimate that by the start of 2025, the UK economy was approximately 8% smaller than it would have been without Brexit, based on macro data, and 6% smaller using firm-level micro data”

https://t.co/DrvEVmSrVw

[Liz Webster @LizWebsterSBF]

Ten years after Brexit, the data is finally catching up with the lived reality.

UK 🇬🇧 GDP is 8% smaller. Investment down 18%. Productivity down 4%. GDP per capita up to 10% lower than comparable nations.

Not bc of a single shock, but because Brexit drained confidence, investment, and capacity every day for a decade.

Instead of building products, firms were drawing up contingency plans.
Instead of innovating, they were firefighting.

Instead of growing, they froze.

This is why Britain feels poorer.
This is why our farms, factories, exporters and public services are struggling.

Brexit wasn’t one decision it was a slow, grinding erosion of our economic foundations.

And here’s the real scandal:
we cannot repair this with “friendly relations” or photo ops in Brussels.
We need real alignment - customs union, single market - but the UK–US pharma deal blocks that path.

Britain is 8% smaller bc of Brexit.

We will stay smaller if the Government continues to lock us into US regulatory orbit while pretending we’re edging back to Europe.

It’s time to stop managing decline and start reversing it. And that begins with honesty.

🚩😮 Peak F*CK ME Brexit moment

When the Telegraph - THE BREXITGRAPH - publishes a full-blown obituary for Brexit, admitting:

📉 GDP down up to 8%
📉 Investment down 18%
📉 Productivity down 4%
📉 Employment down 4%
❌ No trade benefits
❌ No control of immigration
❌ No regulatory freedom
❌ No upside whatsoever

…that’s not a debate anymore.

That’s a death 💀 certificate for Brexit!!!

This is the moment the Right’s own economists finally say the quiet part out loud: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic disaster.

Not mixed.
Not needs time.
Not teething problems.

A. Total. F*cking. Failure.

And if even the Telegraph can say it then every politician still defending Brexit is lying to the public and lying to themselves.

It’s time to stop pretending.
It’s time to fix this mess.
It’s time to rejoin the single market.
Country before bullshit.

🚨 1. Reeves has formally written to the Bank of England demanding bank deregulation

This is extraordinary.

The Chancellor is telling the central bank: “Ease capital rules. Let banks take more risk. Lend more. Inflate the system.”

🚨 Rachel Reeves is repeating the exact deregulation cycle that caused the 2008 crash but this time with higher debt, weaker growth, and no EU safety net.

🆘 She’s pushing Britain toward an IMF bailout while pretending it’s “pro-growth”.

🚨 This is the Singapore model.
This is the post-Brexit experiment.
This is the attack on the real economy including farms, SMEs, and the rural base.

Press Play 👇 to hear article.

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:

A 6–8% hit to GDP

That's £180bn-£240bn a year

It means less govt funds for everything.

Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.
