Excellent analysis. As a Londoner who first set foot on British soil immediately after Brexit, I can confirm that it was a disaster for the economy. Commentators here who think that the UK economy has been outperforming the EU for the last 6 months must have been born 6 months ago. Those who lived through the covid winter of 2020/2021 in London could tell you many amazing stories that shatter your ideologically indoctrinated view of the world.
