The desperation of the Brexiteers takes many forms, now they are claiming that leaving the EU is a 10-20 year project and no one can say whether it is working or not yet. Which is handy. The second sleight of hand is mathematical. Apparently there is no way for economists or statisticians to tell if leaving the EU is costing money or hurting the UK economy. It is just impossible, you see economics is just not sophisticated enough to be able to tell what is cause and what is effect, the numbers are unclear and there are alternative figures and alternative interpretations of what very limited data there is.
10-20 years? God help us. Why is it, when politicians have completely fucked everything over, that they always want ‘one more term’ to “finish the job”? You’ve made enough mess already, just piss off and let an intelligent grown-up sort things out
A few years ago Jacob Rees Mogg was asked when we might see the benefits of Brexit. He plucked a figure of 50 years out of the air.
If you take a wrecking ball to your only home, with no plans to build a replacement and no money to do it anyway... you may be homeless for an indeterminate period. Brexit was taking a wrecking ball to the nation's homes, livelihoods, aspirations, with no plans other than profiting from the chaos for the wrecking ball operators.
