Not really a shock. If people had actually the intelligence to look into the realities of Brexit instead of the rubbish Farage and his cronies shouted about we wouldn’t be in the mess we are now
Title should be and the truth is –
The banks and corporate minded politicians have worsened the cost of living crisis.
it seems insane that at that moment in time the goverment would pick a fight with the EU and maybe start a trade war.
If you wanna solve problems with the protocol, sit down like grown ups and hash it out with the other side, like you should have done the first time. But putting in the work is not something this goverment does, they get distracted by cheese or ambushed by cake or something.
Brexit was always going to require some bumps, but those who screamed against the leave vote/result are looking short term. The Brexit results need to be viewed long term. There will be bumps but to blame Brexit for all the current economic issues is utter folly.
Brexit, covid and inflation. Wierd how we’re STILL doing better than some of the main EU countries yet people are still screaming the sky is falling.
Time to get a life and deal with it. It’s done. Get over it.
I mean, sure brexit is an issue, but a bigger issue is having poor politicians.
Ah yeah, lets blame BREXIT for the costs of living,
Meanwhile oil has more than doubled, gas has too, supply chain issues and most of all the low interest rate environment.
Low interest rate causes monetary inflation. The money the government gave you didn’t come free.
Wars and supply shocks creates price inflation.
I am sure brexit has had some form of impact but lets be honest that blaming brexit is not 100% the cause.
wow I cant believe that thing all those economic experts said would happen.. happened
*shocked pikachu*
Oh no it hasn’t, we just need to learn to cook and get better jobs!!
Worth noting the cost of living has risen more in plenty of non-EU countries (e.g. Australia, US etc), its a global problem.
Don’t worry.
I’m sure a Brexiter will quote some random EU Country with price inflation higher than ours and prove this is all BS.
Obviously PhD trained researchers never factor any of these macro-economical trends into their analysis when producing comparative reports.
And despite the existence of thousands of independent analysis into Brexit all coming to the same conclusion that it has significantly hurt the UK economy – the weight of that evidence could never stack up against a single out-of-context number copied + pasted from an unverified internet source /s
From the department of “no shit”
American economist Adam Posen has said.
Yawn!
Its almost like all those experts had, like, expertise.
Gosh, it’s as if experts who have been forecasting this for 6 years or so actually knew more than some moron shouting in the pub, astounding.
well shock fucking horror – who would have guessed
That is brand new information!
I reckon Theresa May must be laughing her tits off at this almighty cock up his made of Brexit and running the country
But, but, but Boris and the boys said it would all be better. :/
Before, you were confused; now you’re hungry, cold, poor… and confused.
I’m quite sure that was mentioned before Brexit but as usual, facts fail against *political revised* assessments so that we can all be *shocked* at the reality that those facts were not mutable.
Good. It was never about the economy. It was about straight bananas, sOvEr3NtY and kicking out those strawberry picking job stealing EU immigrants. The EU is corrupt, unlike our paragon of truth and honesty BoJo!
Signed – a moronic brexit / tory voter
Another slow clap for the Brexiteers…
No for the rich just the poor 😢
Well they did tell everyone the would be worse off financially. And with soaring interest rates pensioners that voted should be very happy.
Let’s just replace the word brexit with conservatives or better still politicians.
Well prices will be up when you dodge sanctions like half the EU has tried to do….

Worsened it how?
By increasing wages for poor people?

Yes, that’s why a lot of people voted for it.
