Worse, much worse - but it's still unclear how much of that can be chalked up to Brexit vs. the war vs. corona.
It was hugely divisive between 2016-2019 but once it dropped off the media's radar people mostly stopped talking about it (before corona).
- pdimitar 3y agoSo it's no longer divisive, as in, there's now a public consensus whether Brexit was good or bad? Or it's no longer divisive, as in, nobody has a clue anymore because too many things happened and nobody can follow the trail of economic hardship?
- pydry 3y agoIt's less about the trail of economic hardship and more about the media losing interest in using it to divide people. Therefore people stopped arguing over it.
- dmytrish 3y agoComparison to European economies (which suffered through the same coronavirus pandemic and the same, if not worse, energy crisis) might bring some clarity.
- pydry 3y agoI dont doubt it was an economic net negative. On the whole I think the war has been far worse though.
