This is an underestimate.
Imagine the increase in productivity locally and internationally they would be gained from Single Market membership both directly but also from sane and reasonable people no longer being obsessed with the unbearable shiteness of Brexit.

📉 Based on the UK’s pre-referendum investment level of about £230 billion a year, the cumulative loss of investment by this year could be between £275 billion and £400 billion.

Starmer and Reeves have a 10 yr plan. I like their plan. I don’t expect it to materialise in 16 months. And I don’t expect it to be without its challenges. I also accept external factors will play a part. That’s why it’s a 10 year plan.

So long as Labour hold firm on Brexit, all their bleating about having been dealt an atrocious hand by the Tories is so much hot air.
Support for "Make Brexit Works" holes that argument below the waterline.
It is ludicrous to be contemplating tax rises, but not trying to undo Brexit.

Robbie Gibb was appointed by Boris Johnson, he was an editorial adviser to GB News and a director of communications for Theresa May. He is not neutral or impartial.

The Panorama edit was clumsy. But the facts remain. It was a violent insurrection to upend a democratic vote. Looking at the wild outrage here, we’d be forgiven for thinking Jan 6th never happened. In terms of bias, this is off the scale worse. With Farage delighting in the damage.
