This report on The London Economic very comprehensively spells out the decline in Britain post Brexit.

The headline really captures the situation: "There is [mould] in the walls and shit in the rivers, posh butter in the supermarkets has anti-theft tags stuck to it, the trains run on schedule about half the time." There is, however, much more, and it is well worth reading the article.

Most Brits are still in denial about Brexit, complaining that they are worse off but unable to admit that the did it to themselves by voting for Brexit. Is that much vaunted British sovereignty really worth the increase in the costs of living and the reduction in the quality of life? I think not.
