Brexit Supporting Journalists Admit It's Been a 'Failure' | LBC

Dec 3, 2025 | James O'Brien turns your attention back to the European Union as he considers whether the 'winds of change are blowing in the face of Brexit'.

Tory peer Lord Finkelstein writes in The Times, 'Logical step for Labour is to reverse Brexit'. This comes as Leave supporting columnists admit that Brexit has been a 'failure' as a respected economic body say it has reduced the UK's GDP per person by 6%-8%.

James takes aim at the Brexit-supporting media and argues that 'Project Fear' was not extreme enough.



This is where schadenfreude should kick in! But feeling that would be more than a little mean. So I shall refrain from revelling in it. I am, however, very pleased that I am, and always have been, on the right side of history when it comes to Brexit. I was dead nuts AGAINST Brexit from the very start. I said then that Brexit was MADNESS, and MADNESS it has proved to be.

The only relevant question now is this: How the hell are we going to be able to extricate ourselves from this ridiculous, stupid, and suicidal move. — © Mark Alexander
