Brexit has failed.

[Link]

Anti-British enemy within tells us that 'Brexit has failed' shock horror!

After 6 years, how you can tell ?
Is it ALL about the finance as that cannot and shouldn’t be the marker to success or failure of Brexit, there are many more facets to it than just money.

There are obviously ways of interrogating it. Doubt anyone has a answer on this thread but it will be measurable across the spectrum, from finance to social impact.

I was in favour of waiting until passing judgement, but it doesn't appear to be going well currently, independent of global issues, especially if clandestine cross party meetings are being arranged to think of a way forward.

Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

The ability for us to vote for or against them, unlike the unelected, unaccountable lawmakers of the undemocratic, racketeering EU.

As opposed to what we have here?

This is the point. Brexit was a fantastic opportunity for the UK to fast-track itself into a leading position. Huge advantages but it required bold application.

Saw an article in today's Guardian in which Lord Frost, the previous lead Brexit negotiator, questioned why the hell a Conservative Government, with the majority it has gained on the back of a solid Leave mandate, is having cross party talks?

They want us back in. It is as simple as that. The Conservatives, with that majority won on the basis of getting Brexit done and sacking many of the leading Remain voices from their own side in the run could have done whatever they wanted. You name it, they could have done it.

And instead, almost nothing at all. Apart from leading the charge to stop Ukraine reaching a peace accord with Russia. In effect, prolonging that almighty s*** storm.

People need to wake up this. The Tories could have done all kinds of things. Instead, nothing. Literally SFA.

Now I personally think the economic predictions for the next year, like so many other economic predictions, will prove utterly wrong (again) but what is obvious is that the political elite of this country want us firmly back inside of the EU (and not, in my opinion, because it wants to help the EU get stronger).

Outside of a revolution, in every sense of the word, we are heading back in within the next 10 years. Potentially sooner with my prediction some kind of second ref in 2026 predicated on the notion that people have had a decade to make their minds up with the option of effectively a new deal that ties us fully into the free market and customs union against rejoining with the EU welcoming us (and more importantly the cash) with open arms.
