- In his first speech as UK prime minister on Tuesday, Rishi Sunak said he wanted to “build the economy”.
But many believe that Brexit is having a severe effect on British finances.
The UK’s trade has dropped in recent years, the pound has fallen considerably against the dollar and business investment is yet to return to its peak in 2016.
While these factors are predicted to be a result of Brexit, ministers have blamed international issues.

My favorite Brexit moment was hearing about the woman in a London travel agency ranting at the employees about how she "voted for Brexit to keep foreigners out of Britain, not to make it harder for [her] to vacation in Spain". Could anything sum it up more perfectly than that?
my favourite moment was hearing all the banks and financial institutions who heaped decades of misery on the country in 2008 telling us it's in our best interests to vote remain.
taking their advice on finances is like going to see Harold Shipman when you aren't feeling very well, or letting Jimmy Savile babysit your kids.
@@happyjonn9242 Aren't you glad you didn't listen to them and can thus now enjoy the 19th best growth prospects in the G20? At least you beat Russia, for now.
i have a lot of moments I can think of , I can't decide.... the old pensioners in spain admitting they voted Brexit to keep Britain for the "proper europeans" , and now they had to leave Spain as they didn't apply in time for a residence card, the fisherman who remortgaged his house to refurbish his boat and at the time, circa mid 2021 . he was unable to fish anything since the europeans were not buying his fish anymore + many others
@Paul Hitchens Thanks Olga, but I think I read that Brexit travel agency story in the FT.
My favorite is the British cry-babies, claiming they have lost their European Citizenship...when they never had it in the first place.
People are working and there is little or nothing to show for it. everybody is basically working to sort out one bill or the other. no savings.
With inflation running at a four-decade high, a Recession is now the ‘most likely outcome for the economy. How can I grow my portfolio to outpace inflation and maintain a successful long-term strategy? I have been reading of investors making about $250k profit in this current crashing market, and I need ideas on how to achieve similar profits.
You’re right! The current market might give opportunities to maximize profit, but in order to execute such effective transactions, you must be a skilled practitioner.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day invt decisions being guided by a invt-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using a invt-coach for over 2years+ and I've netted over 1.5million
That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well.
I am being guided by “Eileen Ruth Sparks” who I found on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her. She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care supervision.
I'm a Brit living in Germany since 2010 and I run a small business here. Before Brexit I would order materials from the U.K. , the prices were competitive and delivery was quick. Since Brexit, it no longer makes sense to order from the U.K. The prices are not as competitive but the most problematic part is that delivery is often delayed considerably, due to customs issues. I can't rely on receiving orders on time. This causes real problems for my business as I order materials for specific projects with tight deadlines. With inflation currently at about 10%, my primary concern is how to maximize my savings/retirement fund of about £600k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains.
That is everywhere. The problem is, with a rising labor shortage, that industry will be the hardest hit. Fundamentally, restaurants as an industry are only viable with cheap labor and cheap rent. Right now, we have neither.
Well, the top players and pros have exclusive information and data paths that are not disclosed to the public. Knowing the strategies to use during this time is one thing and having the right information to execute them successfully is another.
@@TeresaBrickle Heard it's a good time to buy and basically I've just got cash sitting duck in the bank and I’d really love to put it to good use seeing how inflation is at an all time-high, who is this coach that guides you, mind I look them up?

@@Curbalnk when England was in Europe, imports were much faster because there were fewer checks and also at a lower price. now everything imported from England costs almost double due to taxes.
My parents who live in Ireland now order things from Germany rather than the UK due to import costs. Absolute madness
How much? I'm in a similar position and found the costs to be reasonable....
@@MyName-cw4yr How much depends on the value of the item being ordered....your question is like asking how long is a piece of string? the simple point being made here is that it is now more expensive to order items from the UK and naive to suggest otherwise.
Same. I used to order stuff (privately) from UK to Sweden. Not anymore bc of changed regulations (can't order liquids like perfume from UK anymore) and the ridiculous import cost on everything.

It was even more of a success than the Titanic. The UK economy sank faster.
Does my head in. That's an unfortunate use of an adjective.
Don't blame Covid for the year and a half Covid pointless lockdowns that destroyed the economy not Brexit...
The people who voted for brexit will never accept it's a disaster and that they were misled.
But it is becoming clear that many of the Leavers are now having regrets. The trading arrangements for NI are looking more attractive for the rest of the UK. But how could we get there?
People who voted for brexit only wanted to avoid to be ruled by a bunch of nazy donkey. And now the donkeys are boicotting uk.
I am very surprised to see the BBC finally telling some truth about Brexit. I wonder why. I saw the Financial Times did a similar, more detailed video recently....
Have you been braindead for years?
The BBC has never supportered Brexit. It's total right wing ideology.
Because facts can only be disguised for so long.
They can't hide the latest stats.
busy watching the mess here
It's simple, we used to be part of a 28 branch supermarket chain, buying cheap and being competitive. We then left that supermarket chain and decided we would be a corner shop, without realizing we would be buying in smaller amounts, and therefore having to charge higher prices, meaning lower sales. That is where we're at now.
Good analogy.
Wrong, on every point. We weren’t buying cheap or being competitive. We sold all our competitive products to outside companies years ago. The prices aren’t high due to Brexit, they are high because of the incompetency of lockdowns. If we were only the Country with high prices you would have an argument but you don’t have a point because you believe something based on fiction, not reality.
@@mehrcat1 No really bad analogy. Show me something that we got cheaper as a result of EU buying power.
Nigel Farage needs to be locked up!!
Yep. It’s not rocket science.
Was speaking with a Brexit voter the other day. He's now blaming the EU for the higher prices not trading fairly with UK. They will never admit the cost of living crisis has been made worse because of their "patriotic" vote 🤦♀
They can now wave the flag and pay more, they'll even blame the Albanians for all their problems but never accept their own made national disaster.
the eu is perfect if you want europe to be full of illegal immigrants and contribute to the decline of europeans
Just say racist no need to use other language.
Ohhhhh and the EU doesn’t have higher prices?
Oh look - here are the inflation figures, just in for October 2022:
Germany (11.6 per cent),
Belgium (13.1 per cent)
Netherlands (16.8 per cent).
Hungary (20.1 per cent)
Poland (17.9 per cent)
Etc
and the UK? 10.1…..
TEN POINT ONE!!!!!
You do realise that inflation is prices don’t you?
@@rosshilton we're no longer in the single market which has added additional costs on top of inflation. It's also caused many businesses to suffer. My comment still stands, Brexit has contributed to the cost of living crisis.
I run a successful UK export services company. Brexit has been a disaster for us and our employees. There is not a single advantage but many disadvantages such as the need to get work visas for UK employees, endless paperwork and divergent regulations. Our response has been to halve our UK employee numbers and recruit Irish and other native speakers with EU passports - a net loss for the UK. It is time to rejoin the single market.
IT wont Happen until the boomers are gone
Brexit means Brexit. ❤
Its almost like leaving the biggest economic block of the world is bad for the economy.
It's strange, huh?
But we were meant to deregulate and outcompete the EU and become Singapore-on-thames?

I'm glad we've left, the EU have shown their true colour time and time again by threatening smaller countries with sanctions if they step out of line.

What's really astonishing to me as an outsider is that the British did, in point of fact, have a singularly privileged position within the EU before the referendum, with many special rights, positions, and exceptions granted to them and only them. They actively influenced the EU's position and policies on things that would *only* directly affect their competitors within the EU -- like the old harbour situation in Portugal and Spain. That, on a lighter note, the British forever ruined the word marmalade in the EU I shall not even dignify with a comment.
In many ways, the UK was the *clear* winner of the EU, more so than often-quoted countries like Germany or Poland.
The only thing that is clear to me after the referendum is that some parts of the British seem to indulge in the fantasy of bygone times, Britannia hooray, by jingo and all that nonsense. It really speaks to itself that many British people, in their vernacular, speak of the mainland as 'Europe' -- which bewilderingly seems to imply that they're not part of continental Europe.
The entire referendum was held on the basis of partisan issues(us or them), deliberate misinformation (like that famous message on the bus), hidden agendas (like the Tories trying to break away from EU's workers' protection rights etc.), and general fearmongering (like how the UK is supposedly, in their words, ruled from afar).
It is what it is.
Still, if I were involved in any politics in the UK, I'd be looking into legal action against Johnson, Hamilton, Farage, and all the other deliberate liers.
Freedom of opinion and policies is all very well. But if you bring your own personal agenda into national politics and deliberately manipulate public opinion you're clearly on the wrong side of democratic values.
Yes JAIL for the fore mentioned DEPLORABLES
It was inevitable we denied the euro back in 1992 this was the death knell for our involvement in the eurozone. It became unmanageable. The UK now has to find another way of trading with the EU shocking I know. The problem is the EU keeps world peace. Without the eurozone Europe would inevitably fall into chaos.
I a dutch person living in Germany. My Son lives in London after going to school and uni in the UK. He is still doing reasonably well and has a permanent resident status. But nothing has improved after Brexit. Simply sending a box of cookies for Christmas has turned into an expensive and complex shipping exercise. What has the UK gained? Even the Tories have not come up with a good answer to this question. It seems to me that the turkeys voted for Christmas and it makes me sad.
On the upside they were able to change the colour of their passports to blue and they still get boatloads of migrants.
Sadly the Tories were always using the EU excuse to escape from their bad policies in the past. Unfortunately for them, the chicken has finally come home to roost.

It’s a real pity. I’m from Germany and would have loved to study in the UK. Now, it’s more expensive and bureaucratic. I wish the British the best and hope they will prosper again in the future. It damages us all collectively.
Had to scroll for a while before I actually saw some well wishes. There's a lot of malice in the comments.
Same here, I really wanted to study in the UK. But I don't think I could ever do that, because of Brexit. It just got way too expensive and complicated. It's really a shame. Best of luck to the UK, you deserve better. Live long and prosper🖖🌷
@@Woodzta Indeed, it is nice to see some well wishes. However, I am afraid to say that the malice in the comments, especially from overseas is deservedly delivered. Being overseas myself, I have tried to conduct business with the UK (I'm originally from Wales) and have been faced with nonsense, negativity, lethargy and a reluctance to do business with anywhere other than in the UK. I'm buying not selling and trying to purchase from the UK is in most cases a total waste of time, resources and energy. If you won't help yourselves and support those that are trying to do the same then the UK deserves that malice.

I have a friend who imports farm machinery into Ireland. He used to get it mainly from the UK but now imports from Europe because if he imports from Britain he has to pay all the VAT at the point of entry which essentially ties up tens of thousands of his money until he sells the goods to his customers.
The biggest win Brexit has so far delivered is that anti EU parties on the continent have practically disappeared.
No, they have not! Ukraine has taken it out of the public view!
Well that's not true. They've just changed tack, not disappeared. Italy, Hungary, Poland all have anti EU governments. France just took Macron's ability to govern properly by putting more anti EU politicians in the French Parliament. Germany has been doing it's own thing with little regard for the rest of the Europe, and will continue to do so. What's now happening is that the Anti EU parties are instead calling for a "Union of Nations", something more like the old EEC. Where the Nation State comes above Brussels. Europe is not America, there is no foundation story binding all states together. There is no financial union where debt burdens are shared - the proportionately tiny (when compared to the UK and America) Covid recovery fund, still hasn't been paid to many member states. What Brexit has actually done is show that European countries don't want an "American style" union, but neither do they just want a basic trade deal. Perhaps Europeans should wind back the project to the last time everyone was actually happy with it and leave it there. So before the Euro, but after the reunification of Germany?
But the voters for brexit haven't disapear they just changed their opinion, They don't want to be part of the EU because they believe in its values, they simply want good damn business. Now Europeans have their say, would they want the rascals back into the house to stole the fridge and monopolyse the coach and the TV?
Conveniently forgetting, of course, you were able to vaccinate yourself months before anyone in Europe could. Always think of the negatives, never look at the positives, and you’ll never be able to be truly objective.
@@hughesy606 Being out of the EU had no effect of the UKs vaccine rollout. The EU wide vaccination program was opt in, i.e the UK could have gone through it's own vaccination plan, as several EU countries did. I know brexiteers are grasping at straws for the slightest resemblance of brexit benefits, but you don't need to lie.

The stock market is a way to hedge against inflation. Most notably amidst recession, investors need to understand where and how to allocate funds to hedge against inflation and still make profits.

As someone who lives in UE and sees your situation from outside; what media say here it's that you're basically doomed.
I don't want to be mean but... when you see 190 billions of capital flying from London to Paris just after the brexit, most from same UK's companies which want to retain all the old privilegies... it's difficult not believing it.
Brexit was designed mainly for geopolitical reasons indeed; something about revitalizing the "old, imperial british pride and identity", in a United Kingdom any day more disunited, with different indipendetist movements inside, never really tamed and, today, more rampant than ever... with the result of worsening the situation (just take a look to how Scotland react to brexit).
But no dream can live without a solid economic ground and some, at least decent, plan B.
They presented their design to the british people in a some kind of recipe made of fear and pride, "US vs THEM"... lot of sentimentalism and very poor ratonality.
What make many UE's european very little sympathetic, about brits actual situation, is that they always had a very privileged position in UE; with all the facilitations about being in a trading union, the very same all other members have, but with very little obligations, expecially in matter of common funding, nothing comparable to what countries like Germany, France and Italy had to pay in all their years of membership.

Without Brexit, EU support for Ukraine could've been far more effective. A strong Britain backing Ukraine would've prevented foot-dragging on sanctions, and could've helped organize weapons exchanges. As for the British economy, predicting its post-Brexit demise was a school assignment. From lines of trucks and fighting over fishing rights to the rising cost of living and the flight of investors, I remember first describing these in essays only to then see them happening in real life. The start of the pandemic and my matriculation exams coincided so I even predicted a slower recovery for post-Brexit UK, concluding my analysis with a warning about the possibility of another "black swan". I had no idea that Russia would again invade Ukraine, nor was my analysis exceptional in any way. I only mention it because I still can't believe politicians couldn't see what a high school student could.

I am from Sweden and most Brittish companies that I used to buy online from, will no longer ship outside Britain! Who say's no to business? Apparently it's to complicated, but shouldn't be more complicated than dealing with non-EU countries before brexit. So I don't get it.
Some industries (such as beauty/skincare) have been banned from supplying products in the EU unless they have an EU presence and 'responsible person' within the EU. Others are restricted by the VAT issue. To sell products into the EU, including digital products, you must be VAT registered in a EU country. It's a big and expensive hurdle for small businesses who might not even be VAT registered in the UK!
Well done, brexit voters.

Once the referendum vote was 'Yes' almost everything that followed was inevitable. The rich avoided new E.U. laws and regulations. The majority of citizens voted without understanding exactly what Brexit realities would be (and there were plenty of lies told). Johnson saw his opportunity to be PM on the back of the vote. The voters themselves have to take responsibility (incl those who didn't turn up to vote and who would have voted 'Remain'). There is a price to pay if citizens don't seriously research a major decision they will have a vote in.

There's a key fact that most people don't know or fail to reconcile with enough in order to truly understand why we ended up with Brexit so here goes.
In 2016 the official position of every major political party was to remain. The conservatives under David Cameron, Labour under Corbyn the lib dems under Farron and the SNP under Sturgeon
So if all major political parties were against brexit and campaigned to remain how did we end up leaving?
The answer is that while every major political party wanted to remain the British press which is 90% controlled by just 3 individuals campaigned relentlessly to leave.
The reason they wanted to leave is to avoid the incoming EU regulations of the banking sector, since all of these owners are either not UK citizens or take Nom Dom status and therefore make gigantic sums of money by making sure nothing gets in the way of the status quo.
These three individuals have cost the country untold billions and wrecked a number of other business sectors but because they dominate the media landscape to such a large degree there's little to no mention of their involvement.
As a country we won't ever make the right decision and return to Europe while these groups control so much of the narrative here. I hope a few individuals from outside the UK can see this and highlight it to raise awareness.
As for the BBC and the relative silence you should know that ever since the tories got into power they have been loading the BBC with conservative journalists. The current arbiter of content is also an adviser to GB news.

It isn't"
I think Brexit will lead to a "the wheel turns full circle" logic of Britain having to go cap in hand to its former colonies begging for deals. For example, many in the Tory/Brexit party might feel that having Rishi Sunak at the helm will make it easier for the country to make deals with India. Unfortunately, the Brexiteers will see that doing a deal with India will mean that more Indians will be able to immigrate to Britain. So we'll see how do Brexiteers square their wanting to sign their own trade deals, with their similar desire to cut down on immigration!
Let's not forget the UK also had second largest Covid death toll among developed nations, something Sunak thanked Johnson for (I mean, he listed Covid management as one of his accomplishments).

Brexit is based on the idea, that Britain is not only a highly developed country, but an actual world power, like it was in times of the empire. It is an imperialist, nationalist, isolationist, in some aspects nothing but racist idea. Personally, I am very much in favour of Brexit, for it is, at the Brits expense, a boost to our own national economy. Since when could Austrian sheep farmers compete with the Brits? Since when did so much capital flow out of a country, so that even smaller ones (like Austria) get their share? Brexit made the Brits poorer, and the rest richer. And, most importantly: Itexit, Dexit, Nexit, Frexit, Öxit? Nope - those voices are silent now. By setting an example, the Brits showed what it means to be alone. It unified us in the European Union. And that alone made it worth it.
The bill for xenophobia still coming out of the printer!

I know a hamper business that I really loved. I used to buy gifts from them to be sent to EU where my family lives. After brexit, I had to switch. I was hoping to support them again one day. They are a really lovely small company.
There is a video on how brexit affected (not only) small businesses in UK here on youtube. One of the protagonist say: "Making things more difficult for us to sell in EU did not make anything easier". The video title is: The Brexit effect: how leaving the EU hit the UK
I also run a small business and am now exporting to Australia, Canada and Japan. Europe was beginning to stagnate for me ten years ago. Lead time has gone from six weeks to ten weeks, despite taking on more staff, and profitability is significantly better.

@@rosshilton maybe but UK is no manufacturing super power like Germany
@@codelunatic
TLDR: Germany is about to collapse as a manufacturing nation due to lack of labour, the signing of free trade agreements with competitor nations and the end of cheap Russian gas.
Germany built its economy on a three legged stool:
The first leg was guest workers. German manufacturing was carried out by manufacturing was carried out by conscientious post war Germans, and with Turkish “Gastarbieter” - guest workers doing that manual lifting.
Things changed after unification and new EU rules, especially the Treaty of Amsterdam in 1999, when visas, asylum, immigration and other policies relating to the free movement of all persons, including third-country nationals, were moved from the JHA pillar to Title IV of the EC Treaty (EC Treaty, Arts. 61-69), and hence from an intergovernmental approach to policy-making to a common approach.
The other big change was in attitudes within Germany. Young degree holding Germans didn’t want to bolt wheels onto BMWs. They wanted to wear suits.
This shaky leg explains why Merkel was keep to allow so many refugees into Germany in 2015. Sadly she quickly found out that they don’t want to do manual work either.
The second leg was the EU captive market. With free trade across borders Germany became the major manufacturing nation for the EU. Tariffs on imported goods allowed Germany to make higher profits.
But that captive market has fallen away because the EU is now signing free trade agreements with other manufacturing nations. A free trade agreement with Korea came into force in 2015. An economic partnership agreement was signed with Japan in 2019. A free trade agreement with China is underway.
This will open the door for foreign manufacturing and end Germanys captive market.
The third leg is the cheapest energy in the world - Russian gas. In 2019 Germany was paying USD4 per unit of natural gas compared to Japan who were paying USD8.40 per unit. This is precisely why Germany is a major chemical and fertiliser manufacturer and Japan isn’t.
All that just changed forever.
@@rosshilton I doubt the German manufacturing prowess is going to decline as fast, it takes decades to build that kind of capacity, skilled work force and engineering talent. As it is Germany is all about high end Engineering and not your cost saving fab/cnc shop.. Not the same case with the UK though.
Good to see the BBC finally starting to report on Bexit more clearly. We're in this situation, and now we need to find a way to make it work - people need to understand the tradeoffs, not listen to soundbites from Lord Frost, etc.

The more one hears of the manner in which the lead up to the 2016 referendum was conducted, the more one thinks that British voters are owed some kind of national Inquiry or truth and reconciliation Commission to enable them to find Brexit peace of mind through closure. After all Brexit has left in its wake a tsunami of anger and conflict that is tearing the Nation apart.
The Commission's first task would be to establish what claims were made by those leading the leave and remain debates respectively.
Starting with the claims of the Brexit architects , Mr Farage, Mr Johnson, Mr Gove and their chief adviser Dominic Cummings (referred to hereafter as 'the four frauds") these are by now largely a matter of record. We have the Brexit Bus and the huge poster depicting a host of people coming our way. Then we have the more subtle Leave advertising on Facebook and other social forums.
To these untruths can now be added the four frauds' misrepresentations by omission which only now, 6 years down the line, they are starting to come clean on. Chief among these is the failure of the four frauds and others like them to disclose to voters their understanding of how long they expected it to take before the Brexit benefits they used as carrots to manipulate the way people voted would bear fruit.
Only now is the cat finally emerging from the Brexit bag to tell us that it's found no tangible benefits (not even a mouse...). And Brexit apologists like the gentleman in Max's video are starting to tell us that we can expect a 10 to 15 year benefits 'gestation period' and, in the meantime, the British people will linger on in their purgatory of ever declining prosperity and ever increasing governmental repression.
The Commission will need to ask the four frauds (preferably on oath knowing the value they place on integrity) whether they ever discussed between them the length of time Brexit would require to bear fruit if, thanks to their efforts, Brexit was to be voted in.
If the four frauds reply that no such discussions ever took place then they should be asked why they did not, because it would beggar the belief of any reasonable person to imagine that the architects of Brexit would ever commit the British people to vote on so vital an issue without having even so much as considered the question how long it would take before any Brexit benefits started appearing.
The Commission might suggest to the four frauds that the question "how long before benefits will appear" was of more fundamental importance than the untruths they had inscribed on a bus and a giant poster.
The Commission might enquire of the four frauds if the Brexiteers' slogan: "We got Brexit done" heard so often from the lips of Mr Johnson might not have been laughably premature.
It will be up to the Commission what questions it puts to the leaders of the remain lobby, if indeed they feel the latter did anything to be ashamed of that might merit enquiry
It's to be hoped that when, in the fullness of time, the Commission concludes its Inquiry, the British people will find it in their hearts to forgive and forget their sufferings, as they deliberate between British and New Zealand butter for the Royal Slice of Bread (King William's bread by then!)
Why has it taken the BBC so long to start talking about what a disastrous idea Brexit was?
Because of constant pushback from Brexiteers.
To the British: don't give up! Stay strong! Don't you ever think about rejoining. Please, don't take the fun away from us.
But we are away from you, so it was worth it.
Cost Brexit so far could relocated UK to Mars,,thanks for unlimited asylum seekers Einstein
We need to join the single market soon as possible but the politicians are to afraid to say it and admit it was a mistake.
Lib Dems were saying it right after the vote, until they got completely trounced at the ballot box.
Guess how many third countries (i.e. not EU or EFTA member states) have joined the EU Single Market since it was established? None. The UK might feel the need to do so but it's not in their power to that.
U are fucked. Hope the other party can get a misstrust vote.
@renideo Whilst your analysis is largely true about rejoining the EU. It does miss the fact that Leave campaigners dismissed leaving the Single Market and the Customs Union in the referendum campaign and the benefits were being touted as late as 2019. Farage repeated said we could ‘be like Norway’ which is in the Single Market. Leadsom said ‘We will have the same access to the Single Market’. Johnson in 2019 said ‘there will be no forms, no checks, no barriers of any kind [between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK].’ So rejoining the Single Market and Customs Union would respect the referendum result.
the EU is no revolving door - you are out. all the best from germany.
I don't think Mr Sunak should mention or bring any more attrntion to brexit.
Well it only took the BBC 6yrs to finally ‘report’ on the deceit that was/is Brexit.
Such complicity of the media in the UK at glorifying the ‘emperor’s clothes.’ 😡
Remember when Boris said energy bills would be lower after brexit?
So the world wide increase in fuel costs is also down to Brexit, you remoaners are such financial experts.
@@senseofthecommonman Wholesale Gas has just come down in price again common man...do keep your eye on the markets.
But who could see what would happen after with Ukraine and covid so not really a Brexit issue
@@senseofthecommonman The price has more than doubled in UK. Much higher than anywhere else in EU.
@@thisisstupid6524 Other countries got covid too, you know? And they are not experiencing a cost doubling for energy.
It is not just the Brexit.
It is as well a symptom of British Fabric: empirial arrogance, inability to be a player among equals, a sense of being extraordinary and entitled...
All this led many Europeans to be glad to see the back of Britain.
(Just wishing NI and Scotland to break free and re-join EU )
Hello
Well said. For the last 200 years British always had a superior to others attitude. This is the attitude which will eventually drag them down to the size of a little island.
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Don’t blame an entire population for the actions of a few. The standard, normal citizens of the UK aren’t entitled. It’s the goverment that is.
THERE IS A HELL OF A LOT OF STEREOTYPING A VARIETY OF UK FOLK WITH A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT VIEWS LEADING TO AN ALMOST 50:50 VOTE, INTO ONE JOKE-AT-THE-READY FOR FOLK STILL IN EU COUNTRIES, HAPPY TO POSTURE AND TELL UK HOW MUCH THEIR 'BREXSHIT' HAS HELPED THEM. PLEASE BE MINDFUL THAT IN FACT THERE WERE AND STILL ARE PEOPLE IN UK WHO HAVE COMPASSION FOR UK AND EU-BASED PEOPLE. NOT EVERY 'LITTLE ENGLANDER' IS FULL OF THEMSELVES NOR DO THEY ALL THINK THEY ARE AN EXCEPTIONAL RACE BLEATING ABOUT EMPIRE.
HUMAN NATURE IS BEING SHOWN UP IN A POOR LIGHT FROM THE SCHADENFREUDE THAT IS NOW POURING OIL ON TO THE BREXIT FIRE. IT HAS BEEN AN EXERCISE IN SHOWING THAT GROUPS OF PEOPLE NEED EACH OTHER, THAT WE ARE BETTER AS A COLLECTIVE, AND THAT ISOLATIONISM/PROTECTIONISM IS A HARMFUL CHOICE. LESSON LEARNED.

Who voted for that government...?
Working as a construction worker I did not want to vote brexit but remain offered me nothing. It's not like I had anything to lose.
I must say since brexit my wages have risen sharply since many of the foreign lads have gone home and and some where my friends, cheap workers are not so common now I guess.
Many of my friends
Unfulfilled vacancies are a sign of a failing economy not a thriving one.
I love how Brexit was such a huge deal and getting it done was so vital and getting the best deal was so important that Theresa had to be sacked as she couldn’t get a good deal… months later same hard deal was made by her predecessor how ironic.
Brexit was never good for business in the UK or the economy but it’s good that economic growth isn’t important to the UK because it’s effects will be felt for many many years to come.
We could quite happily have gone the EEA option, follow less rules and be part of the trading block but no had to take the worst possible option.
Yep and in the process screw up Anglo Irish relations because of it
The options still there, it’s just that it’s still considered politically unworkable.
We’ll rejoin single market/customs union in about a decade I reckon.
Yes remember BREXIT means BREXIT and we were having a red white and blue British BREXIT. This is what happens when people ignore the experts
@@Akahoshi86 should never have had a referendum on something people didn't fully understand.
Norway says no.
Will go down as one of Britains biggest ever economic blunders. Anyone who thought Brexit would be an ecomomic boom clearly should never comment on economic policy again. Ever!
It is shameful that many Tories still see Boris as a hero to make Brexit possible Sadly the damages of Brexit could only be felt by now. Apart from the impacts on the economy Brexit has triggered the political tensions in Scotland and Northern Island. How can those Brexiteers clean up the mess?!
Brexit is a slow puncture, Luzz Truss made it a audible hiss and Sunak is not going to use a proper repair kit to fix it …..just a silencer to stop you hearing the hiss
LOLz Truss.
We have an expression in french when, in a reckless situation in which you are fully aware of how you much you messed up, you still keep going and try to fulfill what you started.
We call it "une fuite en avant" which you could translate as "fleeing towards" (please no joke about running away this is mostly cringe and outdated). And that perfectly describes the current situation in the UK...
Hello
I don't remember them saying Brexit would have a cost during the Leave Campaign prior to the Brexit Referendum and they still want to put a spin on things, avoiding the truth. What does Frost say is the way forward out of these difficulties? He doesn't. He just says give it time.
Just ignore the fact that the Euro has dropped further in value than the Pound against the Dollar since the end of the transition period (14.7% and 19.1% respectively).
Also ignore the fact that export trade volume to the EU only started increasing after the Brexit referendum in 2016 (after a long decline since around 2010) and our trade volume is at record levels after a pandemic policy induced slump in 2020 and has increased almost 70% since 2021 when we left the customs Union.

Also the rise in exports to the EU has persistently outpaced imports from the EU in both goods and service since the end of the transition period.
Citation: Office for Budget Responsibility - The latest evidence on the impact of Brexit on UK trade (March 2022).
Regarding investment, the ONS would disagree with you. They found, using the Gross Fixed Capital Formation measure, that there has been a 4% increase in UK investment since 2016.

And now the UK floats free from the EU, still just as dependent on its trade as before, but now with less influence to impact it. Cheers!
