"By 2025, Brexit had reduced UK GDP by 6% to 8%, with the impact accumulating gradually over time. We estimate that investment was reduced by between 12% and 18%, employment by 3% to 4% and productivity by 3% to 4%"

Chilling warning from Fiona Hill - let's not forget, Putin's biographer before she went to work for Trump in his first term. She knows the signs of growing authoritarianism, and she sees them in the US now.
Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.

Even after the last few weeks, I am still shocked & horrified to see the US President blithely trading away the land & sovereignty of an ally who fought alongside the US in Iraq (where 18 Ukrainians were killed) & in Afghanistan, while Putin was paying bounties to the Taliban for dead US troops.
Trump: "We've been discussing with Ukraine land, and pieces of land that would be kept and lost and all of the other elements of a final agreement. There's a power plant involved ... they discussed NATO and being in NATO and everybody knows what the answer to that is."
