Proud of being British, and still European. Politically activated by Brexit, now other issues. Campaigning for a better Britain for everyone, a tweet at a time.

Let’s be clear about Brexit.
The Office for National Statistics says that Brexit has cost us 4% of GDP. Doesn’t sound much does it.
But UK GDP for 2021 was circa £2.2trillion.
So if Brexit cost us 4% then the cost is £91.7bn. 1/6
That’s not just a one-off cost of £91.7bn. It’s costing us that much *every year*.
But what does it mean?
Well there are about 67million people in the U.K.
So the Tory Brexit is costing us £1,368 on average for *every man, woman and child in the country. 2/6

2/15 Now let’s suppose you have a spare £100m.
The first thing you need to do is invest it in non-Sterling denominated assets.
@Jacob_Rees_Mogg ‘s firm has a few funds, all investing $8.4billion in such assets, so ask him if you’re not sure.
