So far Brexit looks to have cost the UK between 4-6% GDP per capita, with the negative impact continuing to compound as GDP growth remains weak compared to similar countries.

And yet the person that sold such an act of national economic harm will be the same person that a significant proportion of Brits will vote for at the next GE.
1) He's a talented scammer.
2) The big money and the insidious network of technocrats, and thus the media, are now all behind ReformUK Ltd and their next big scam.
3) Around a third (the magic number, it appears) of the votership is ignorant and gullible enough to fall for his narrative.on the button!

This chart should be shown each time Nigel Farage tries to make out its been a success (or if not, its not his fault). Brexit was clearly his project, its clearly cost the UK dear (in economic terms) & he should be reminded of this fact continually & publicly

@ChrisMayLA6 4-6% of GDP gets you a lot of milkshakes

h/t Adam Tooze@ChrisMayLA6 He should be held liable, not just accountable. The #BBC blames the current economic woes on everything except #Brexit, which is the root cause of the mess.

h/t Adam Tooze@ChrisMayLA6 we always measure everything in money because this country serves shareholders and not its people
its quality of life that has suffered most
largely thanks to redistribution of existing wealth/assets from the bottom to the top
(which began long before 2016 and Covid of course)
and rather than rallying against those responsible, the Brexiteers have turned neighbour against neighbour
should Farage win in 2029 it will be 2016 all over again and 0-1% growth will seem like halcyon years

@ChrisMayLA6 @MostlyTato as creating collapses like this are part of an Epstein plan, maybe it is time to call Reform the Epstein party and those who might vote for them Epstein supporters?

h/t Adam Tooze@ChrisMayLA6 That's nothing next to - say - the inability to buy EU heat pumps/A/C's with the heat waves in the summer of the last few years. I had to order a German-made window heat pump for a friend with my $USD credit card to ship it to a UK address in order for them to get a friggin' heat pump! The company wouldn't take UK credit cards.

#PostOfTheWeek (season 3):
Brexit, the United Kingdom’s decision to withdraw from the European Union, is a rare contemporary example of a major developed economy raising trade barriers and more generally pulling back from international economic integration.

When the Brexit referendum took place in 2016, academic and professional economists generally forecast that the policy about-face would result in a negative hit to the United Kingdom’s economy of about 4% of GDP over the long-term. Rather than a sudden, visible economic shock following the vote, the costs of Brexit have been gradual and cumulative. -

Now, almost a decade later, new research aims to assess Brexit’s actual impact on the United Kingdom’s economy, which involves the challenging task of comparing the country’s economic indicators to what they would have been if the United Kingdom had remained in the European Union. -

This research finds that, ten years on, the economic cost of Brexit has been larger than analysts predicted and that prolonged policy uncertainty contributed importantly to the magnitude of the impact. Understanding the ways in which Brexit resulted in a drag on economic growth for the United Kingdom provides potential lessons about the costs of abruptly pulling back from the global economy for other countries. -
