Another great and truthful video. It’s all very depressing stuff, though. But how could it be otherwise? This is all largely self-inflicted pain. Pain brought about by xenophobes, Europhobes, zealots, pig-headed people on the far right and ideologues. The rest of us are having to pay a very high price for their determination to drag this country out of the greatest, most successful single market in the world, the Single Market.
The result of all this has been for the UK to lose power and influence in the world. Further, that our living standards are now in terminal decline is going to be a constant source of embarrassment to us all. Of course, the bigots that brought this dreadful state of affairs upon us are sitting pretty. They are all not only very rich but are also being paid a king’s ransom for screwing up the country.
Before us are difficult times. We can look forward to little comfort or cheer. And to think that before that ridiculous Brexit, this country’s economy was doing pretty well. Clearly the ne’er-do-wells at the top had not heard of the old saying, ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.’ – © Mark Alexander
