Data by the Bank of England suggests that being outside the European Union has reduced the size of the UK economy by around 6%. If we're serious about economic prosperity, we cannot afford to isolate ourselves from our European neighbours.
The UK has lost 6% in growth being outside of the EU.

So we did Brexit to give the NHS more money, and now we're giving that money to the US big pharma industry. Don't remember seeing that on the side of a bus...

Our Granddad is 100 and fought in D-day

sort Britain out. He says he reminds him
of one of the commanders he fought

‘Brexit was a terrible solution to the problem of English identity. It did nothing to allow ordinary people to "take back control" of their lives.’ So, people remain powerless and angry. And Farage (who championed this failure) now exploits their anger for power. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2025...

If there’s so much buyer’s remorse about Brexit, why is Nigel Farage the rising figure in UK politics?
Ten years on, an angry tribe sees itself as more English than British - and Ireland must stay alert to the dangers

Britain has no idea - in terms of its self-image, not economists obviously - what economy it actually has One of my favourite facts to point out is: at over £8bn annually, the *videogames industry* is more than twice as valuable to the UK economy as fishing and steel combined.
