Brexiteer says the only way the UK can gain economic growth is by ‘rejoining the EU’
"We were sold a utopia that was never going to happen and it never is going to happen."
The UK is the first and so far only country to have left the EU and Brexit was and is the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU) and the European Atomic Energy Community (EAEC or Euratom). The official withdrawal was at 23:00 31 January 2020 GMT (00:00 CET).
"We were sold a utopia that was never going to happen and it never is going to happen."
The OBR forecasts the UK’s trade intensity will be 15 per cent lower in the long run than if the UK had remained in the EU.
The TalkTV host shared polling numbers that suggest more people than ever think it was the wrong decision to vote leave.
He said Remainers are now "emboldened as never before" with the possibility of rejoining being discussed again.
"It's about time we get this out in the open because Brexit is a disaster."
“I think having unfettered trade with our neighbours and countries all over the world is very beneficial to growth."
"Brexit will result in the UK’s trade intensity being 15 per cent lower in the long run than if the UK had remained in the EU."
There is speculation that the project could be doomed as people wake up to the realities of life outside Europe.
Simon Spurrell said the government is "so anti-Europe they won’t even discuss getting a better deal sorted out".
