\n Five years since Brexit, and a British Chancellor has finally called out Brexit for what it is; an act of pure economic sabotage and vandalism.\n<\/p>\n
\n Politics is finally catching up with economic reality.\n<\/p>\n
\n The OBR estimates that it has wiped four per cent from our economy, and it may well be more than four per cent.\n<\/p>\n
\n The resulting suppression of wages and loss in revenue for the Treasury has increased the likelihood of tax rises in the upcoming Budget.\n<\/p>\n
\n New polling by Best for Britain shows that three in five Brits now see Brexit as a failure, with seven in 10 of these voters blaming Nigel Farage.\n<\/p>\n
\n His silence on the subject speaks volumes.\n<\/p>\n
\n Alongside pointing out the problem and those responsible, the government must increase efforts to work with the EU to undo the damage.\n<\/p>\n
\n They must go further and faster in removing trade barriers; unlocking growth, pushing prices down, and putting money back in people\u2019s pockets.\n<\/p>\n
\n Regards,\n<\/p>\n
