Huge slump in UK food exports to EU The tone though is, as often🤡 one of being somewhat taken aback things "still haven't got back to normal after the blip of Brexit" Newsflash ! If "normal" was being in the Single Market, the UK ditched that Welcome to the new normal !👇

We can’t have another referendum on Brexit because that was the will of the (lied to) people 8 years ago… But we’re supposed to have another general election despite having had one 4 months ago You lot are f*cking hilarious.

BoE Governor goes much further than his previous public statement on Brexit. Bailey said that the changed relationship with the EU had “weighed” on the economy. “As a public official, I take no position on Brexit per se,” he said. “But I do have to point out consequences. The impact on trade seems to be more in goods than services … But it underlines why we must be alert to and welcome opportunities to rebuild relations while respecting the decision of the British people.”

I am now on Bluesky as instantnicky.bluesky.social. Not sure how much longer I will remain on X.

Brexiteers promised us a free trade deal with the US. Instead, we are getting 20% tariffs, imposed by the president the Brexiteers went over to campaign for.

UK must reverse Brexit if Donald Trump wins election, Keir Starmer told With the prospect of a brutal global trade war looming, critics of the UK’s current Brexit deal have said the country needs to rejoin the customs union, single market or the bloc itself to shield itself from the devastating fallout. #RejoinEU independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

The white elephant:

🔥 “Echoing Sir Ed’s remarks, Michael Heseltine later told The Independent that the “simplest way to build confidence in investors to put their money in our economy is to convince them we are going back to the single market”. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Remember what the Brexit liars promised…

£40 billion being the same as the amount of tax revenue lost as a result of Brexit…

This is now ridiculous. UK news shows have been repeatedly citing the OBR’s figures on growth but no one has pointed out to viewers the same report lays bare the Catastrophic cost of Brexit! We face poor growth & a record tax burden. If you think UK news shows need to step up RT

Matthew Amroliwala, BBC News, "Rachel Reeves is jumping through hoops to find £35 bllion" "When you look at the loss to the economy of Brexit, it's about the same figure" Brexit = tax rises, as we need to make up for the red tape and loss in trade with the EU
