2016: Nigel Farage, "The worst case scenario economically, is better. than where we are today"

2020: Boris Johnson, "Prosper nightly remains an extremely good description of life after January 1st"

2025: Bloomberg, "Brexit Hit to UK Economy Double Official estimate"

National Bureau of Economic Research Study:
⬇️ GDP down 8%
⬇️ Investment down 18%
⬇️ Employment down 4%
⬇️ Productivity down 4%

🔻£35 billion lost in Income tax & NI
🔻£25 billion lost in VAT
🔻£15 billion lost in Corporation tax

🆘 Estimated loss in tax revenue is £75 billion per year

What have we got after Brexit?
£4.8  billion for 🇮🇳 Indian-UK
£2.3  billion for 🇦🇺 Australia-UK
£0.8 billion for 🇳🇿 New Zealand-UK
£9.0 billion for 🇪🇺 EU reset with UK

🆘 £16.9 billion - Current best case scenario by 2040

The reason taxes will go up, and spending will be cut, again, is because Brexit is making us poorer

Today, former UKIP, former Reform UK, Nathan Gill, who admitted taking bribes to do what Farage and Johnson did for free: talk down the EU, will be sentenced

➡️The UK has always been a sovereign nation; just as every EU nation is a sovereign nation, they just chose to work together for the greater good

➡️The UK has always had control of our borders. Even within the EU the UK could remove any EU citizen e.g. if they were a danger, or didn't contribute

➡️ Poverty an austerity were not caused by the EU, they were caused by the Conservative party underfunding public services

➡️ And when the UK left the EU, to make up for the freedom of people that provided temporary workers to the UK, Boris Johnson's point based system approved visas for 3.5 million legal migrants, he did that without investing in public services. Not the fault of immigrants but of the UK government exercising their Brexit freedoms

So the UK can carry on believing populists that will say whatever angers swathes of the population to get power and influence, like Farage or Johnson

Or the UK can acknowledge that Farage's and Johnson's Brexit ideology has not only been a disaster, but it has been the opposite of what both of them promised

If we want the economy to grow faster, if we want to cut taxes, and increase spending, the sooner we boost our economic growth by rejoining the European Union, the better

🗣️ @Morrisons: "We are Britain’s biggest customer of UK farming, and we support the concerns of farmers.

However, we need to ensure that we can continue to operate and serve our customers across the UK without disruption."

@CAevs @Morrisons Although the support is very welcome, it could be that they don’t want farmers to target their distribution centres and stores,don’t be surprised if other supermarkets don’t follow suit! 🤷

Shocking new figures show 147 tonnes of illegally imported meat has now been seized at @PortOfDover - much of it pigmeat from ASF-infected parts of Romania.

Our huge thanks to DPHA for their vital work. They must be properly funded in 2025.

"I just don’t understand... if farming is such hard work with very little return, why farmers are so keen to continue farming?"

My response... which is also why I believe this #FamilyFarmTax will have an impact on the whole country.

⁦@ChrisMasonBBC⁩ sums up the mood of farmers well. The government are going to hear about food and farming this week and they are going to have to react. It’s not just APR. It’s trade, it’s transition. We’ve had enough https://t.co/olALcZzCBw

@RobertJenrick @Jacob_Rees_Mogg So you are not interested in getting a ‘traditional Tory’ like myself back to the fold!
You should be looking towards the centre not the far right.
I find it all very sad!

[Brexit Bin 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇩🇪🕊🇺🇦 #BrexitHasFailed @BrexitBin]

Three facts about Brexit:
1》Brexit has already cost us more than we ever paid into the EU.
2》Our EU fee was an investment that allowed us to earn far more through frictionless trade, a customs union and global trade deals.
3》Brexiters have not replaced EU regional funding.
