‘Brexit dividend’ is sub-Trump soundbitery at its most patronising & cynical. All reputable economic forecasts, not least OBR ones which inform Govt policy, posit net losses of billions. It’s solely to appease Brexiters who will swallow anything ‘positive’ now.
Happy Father’s Day
Today Theresa May is claiming the NHS “£20 bn” boost will come from the Brexit dividend.
She does not believe this. She know it to be untrue.
It will be funded by borrowing and tax rises in the Autumn
Why is she doing this?
🧐
The UK's net contribution to the EU is £173m a week, not £350m. And the government has already allocated that money - there is nothing left for the NHS. #Marr https://t.co/eUY8sg0D0f
How they can lie on this is beyond contempt but the terrible and disgusting @DailyMailUK will lie with them asn the other pairs of lies it so so sadness me to see this in my beloved UK WE CANNOT AND MUST NOT LEAVE EUROPE https://t.co/jJoWThr7mS
The Brexit dividend for the NHS is a bare-faced lie. Growth is slower so the welcome increase in NHS spending will be funded by higher taxes and/or borrowing- see the IFS. Pravda( the Mail), Izvestia( the Telegraph), Peoples Daily( the Sun) will claim otherwise. How low we fall.
We will lose thousands of doctors & nurses and £15bn per year to our economy as a result of Brexit. The pie in the sky Brexit dividend is a myth, conjured up by a PM in desperate need of a genie in a bottle.
SHOCKING: Over 40 big cats (lions, tigers, leopards, pumas & cheetahs) are being privately kept in Great Britain!
