...is a new book by Anthony Seldon: a collection of essays by 43 different authors, including seven lords, four baronesses, one dame and three knights of the realm, may be the nearest we will ever get to a semi-official reflection on the causes and consequences of the most divisive decision in recent history.

I quoted a recent independent study, from Stanford University, [which] finds that by 2025 Brexit had reduced UK GDP by 6% to 8% compared with what it would have been. Investment shrank by between 12% and 18%, while both employment and productivity were reduced by 3% to 4%. in answer to a declaration that Brexit hasn't impacted our lives, which wasn't believed so i'll ask a question of advocates for the Leave campaign - how has Brexit made our lives better?
 
I thought there'd be a horde of jolly Brexit ears telling all and sundry how their lives have been brightened in the sunlit uplands of this Brexit paradise we're meant to inherit - but no! Half an hour in and the sound of silence tells its own story.
 
People are happy to take the brexhit hit but get boiling mad over farmers having to pay a bit more IHT in an industry which is ripe for massive expansion ie bigger farms
 
I don't know what you are whinging about Odds, you have your hippy utopia. A communist government and millions of beautiful people arriving on our shores. A harvest for the world! I believe that children are the future!
How many people in this Communist government of ours?
Which are Communist and which not? Or are they all Communists?

As for the beautiful people, there are on average more than 42 million each year, spending nearly £150 Billion, about 5% of the UK economy.
That's about £3,500 per person.
What would we do without them?

We're not into fiction.

Correct. We've all been subjected to 10 years of punishment beatings by the uni-party for voting wrongly. They've all been determined to make us suffer, in the hope that we'd end up begging to rejoin the EU, to rescue us from their failures.

Half an hour FFS. The fact is that those on the right of the political debate tend to be busy working and doing useful things for society, unlike those on the left who mostly claim benefits and doss about all day.

He still can't tell a Communist from a Socialist; a smile from a veil or his ars from his elbow.

Communist government. There is a simple test for judging if a government is commie- it's to answer yes to the question:

Does the state own the businesses?

No other test is either required or accurate.

If the answer is 'No!', the commie accusers are talking out their pants.
