> Brexit broke the link between governance and reason…in 2016 they pretended that a country could weaken its trading ties to its nearest neighbours and get richer, which is like saying you can step in a bath of ice and get warmer.
> In this case, the restraint on sovereignty was not the EU: it was the money markets. But their verdict was as binding as any Brussels edict; in fact it was more so. They ordered the removal of a chancellor after just 38 days in office and the cancellation of the government’s economic strategy. It is the financial markets that have taken back control.
Read this article yesterday, still do not think the penny will drop that Brexit is part of the overall woes. Will all be blamed on pandemic and Ukraine.
They may now loose the next election, but anti-Brexit sentiment is still in the same echo chamber. Politically it has moved on, Labour avoids mentioning it like the plague.
Maybe, if we the UK gets worse, Albanian gangs and the RNLI will be ferrying people from the shores of Blighty to Europe.
The majority of voters voted for the Tories. Suck it up. The voters will one day vote for Labour. When they do, suck it up. The people voted to check out of Hotel California…
“We’ll let the markets decide”
“Nooo! Not like that!”
the markets always have control.

The best way to vote, is to vote for the party, who wants that, or the party who wants to help you.
