Comment on UK businesses still ‘reluctant to invest’ over Brexit and interest rates
jabjoe@feddit.uk 11 months agoWhen invoking experts (thought you Brexiteers had enough of experts), you should reference you sources. But that map doesn’t have Britain standing out from Europe. Brexit has damaged the EU and Britain. It hurt us worse, but has hurt them too.

There is no Lexit. It’s part of the ill defined Brexit blob that was all things to all people, but really, was a play for deep deregulation and racism. Though even the racism, was really just part of the play for deregulation.
Your map shows some places are improving. Though I don’t trust unlabeled sources. It is also a relative measurement not absolute. If your country is massively rich but is slightly contracting, you life will probably be better, than in a massively poor country that is strongly improving.
EU countries also struggling doesn’t help us at all. Less demand for our goods. It’s one of lies of Brexit, that economic gravity doesn’t exist. Our neighbors’ fate is always going to be part of our fate.

There is lexit. A third of left wing voters votes for it. Labour are about to get into power.
Only an idiot would expect the Tories to deliver it. It’s a long term process. Undoing the environmental damage that the CAP has wrought will take decades.
Trade is at an all time high. The facts are facts, the economic effects are minimal. If you don’t change your opinion based on facts, then you’re left with beliefs. Good luck with that.

You might want Lexit to be a thing, but you, along with many other types of Brexit voter, have been baited and switched. Vote with nutty Tories, get nutty Tories.
Facts are facts. Brexit has hurt us. No serious economist is saying otherwise. Just nutty Tories.
