Nonsense, it was about improving the economy and everything else. It was gonna send an extra 350 million pounds a week to the NHS, gonna supercharge global trade, gonna free British businesses from EU red tape, and eliminate immigration. The UK was going to enter a golden age.
Brexit was never a plan, it was a slogan. The vote had no realistic framing for what the status of things between the EU and UK would be, or any other details. Everyone was free to imagine any outcome they please, and quite a number imagined they'd be richer.
- nonethewiser 4y agoAre you suggesting it didn’t free EU businesses from red tape? The way you worded it seems that way.
- meepmorp 4y agoAre you suggesting British businesses have less EU red tape to deal with now that they're trading with the EU as non-member state? They still need to comply with the regulatory requirements for products, but now also have voice in Brussels along with the added overhead of customs and other barriers.
