It’s Brexit’s 3 year anniversary – these reactions sum it up for you?

Former Tory donor on Brexit: “It’s been a complete disaster… It was just complete and total absolute lies."

Britain exited the EU on Jan. 31, 2020. On that day, then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the country could finally fulfil its potential and that he hoped it would grow in confidence with each passing month.

Guy Hands, a leading City figure, has called Brexit a “complete disaster” and a “bunch of total lies” that has harmed large parts of the economy.

He added: “The biggest issue about it, and you can take the Brexit bus as a good example, is the lies that Boris Johnson and the Conservative party told about the NHS. In fact what they did was throw the country and the NHS under the bus.”

How has that gone for you and, well, for Boris Johnson?!

Now, opinion polls show Britons who regret leaving the EU increasingly outnumber those who do not. 

Reactions

How are people looking back at the last three years?

Let’s have a look

1.

We left EU 3 years ago today & #Bregret is higher than ever. No wonder, with trade down 15%, investment down 13%, soaring food inflation, tax revenue down £40bn. Our economy, society & environment are being held hostage by #Brexit ideologues, yet MPs are too scared to call it out

#Brexit is a self inflicted economic wound.
It was built on lies & they’re still lying – refusing to face the facts – Brexit is bad for Britain.
At the v least we should be joining the single market & customs union.
Best of all – we need to be back in the EU pic.twitter.com/XbQQD6VEpu

Left: Tory Minister Helen Whately says our biggest achievement after 3 years of Brexit was the vaccine roll out

Right: Dr Raine explains that our vaccine roll out was done while the UK was under EU rules

So our greatest Brexit achievement was while we were still in the EU 🤷‍♂️ pic.twitter.com/BvSnZytMQ5

In the '70s, post-war Britain was the sick man of Europe; skint, crumbling, discontented, unemployed, striking. After 40+ years in the EU, Britain was flying; wealthy, prosperous, financially secure. Three years after Brexit; sick man of Europe again. Jolly good show chaps!

Listening to Daniel Hannan's list of Brexit achievements on Radio 4: vaccines, Ukraine, deregulation, Australian trade deals. They're either false, irrelevant, actively self-harming or meaningless. After three years, they have nothing to show for all their nonsense.

Seems the government hasn’t been able to send anyone on to defend #Brexit on the 3rd anniversary #newsnight debate.

It must be going *really* well then.

Craven wreckless fools.
