    I was told that the UK will always be behind the EU in every way and that if I questioned that I would be called stupid. 🤷

      That really does not answer the question regarding being told that the EU could not go into recession, does it?

      But whatever, since it looks like Brexit BS, we were also told £350m per week for the NHS, and yet they increase NI to fund the NHS. I am yet to see that increase be handed over though so that is a twofer straight off the bat. We were told that we would be better off outside the EU. Try a price comparison between Amazon anywhere in the EU and see how that same item costs in the UK. It is more expensive to trade with the EU than it is for the EU to trade with the UK. We do not play on a level field anymore. We were told there would be no depreciation in workers rights V’s the EU, and in a single phrase “P&O did not dismiss any EU workers while removing all low paid workers UK workers”. I could go on for a long time with this.

      People who can provide evidence are a lot more credible. Joe bloggs has done many Videos on the EU. The EU knew it was in for a rough ride just on the gas issue alone. Comparing the UK to the EU is an ignorant viewpoint to take. As I have already said Brexit was not just the UK loosing out. It was also a massive problem for the EU. We suffered more because Johnson egregiously refused to prepare, while at the same time demanding the most severe conditions possible.
