Today at 4:30 PM, a parliamentary debate will be held on the consequences of Brexit. #BrexitInquiry

The debate comes after a petition calling for an inquiry into the handling of Brexit negotiations received over 175,000 signatures. An online poll by Omnisis last week showed that 59% of 1,340 voters thought an inquiry should “probably” or “definitely” be launched, with just 25% against.

This shows that there is a clear demand from the public for answers on how Brexit negotiations were handled.

1/15: Brexit has had a significant impact on the UK. From trade deals to “taking back control”, the effects have been far-reaching and entirely negative.

So where are we just 3 years on?

A🧵 2/15: The pound has plummeted, leading to rising inflation and a decrease in purchasing power for consumers. The UK is set to have the worst-performing economy in the entire G20 in 2023, bar Russia… the Elephant in the room is Brexit.

Help us pass this lot and address the social media imbalance between us and the Brexit elite.

The European Movement is the UK's fastest growing and largest Pro-EU organisation, and we're holding this government to account over its disastrous Brexit policies. The truth is, the leave campaign, both official and unofficial, lied and deceived the public.

They used enormous platforms on social media to amplify their divisive and outright false claims about immigration, law and the economy.

Today marks the anniversary of the withdrawal agreement.

Two years on from this and there is no denying that Brexit has been a historic mistake.

We were promised sunlit uplands but instead we are far worse off.

Thread 👇 We have been left with:

✅Empty shelves
✅ Empty pumps
✅ Empty pockets

...and a heap of unfulfilled, empty promises.

🇦🇺🇬🇧The government has signed its first (from scratch) trade deal post-Brexit.
And it is every bit as damaging as warned.

It fails to protect our farmers long-term and allows imports of food produced at lower standards.
