French President Emmanual Macron has claimed that Brexit has “impoverished” the UK and failed to solve its country’s immigration problems. “Brexit has impoverished the United Kingdom,” he told The Economist. “Brexit has done nothing to solve immigration in the UK. “Well, despite that, some people think it doesn’t look so bad. But nobody dares to say that anything is wrong. And so nobody is taking responsibility for anything.”

As you hate the UK so much why don't you live somewhere else.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

England’s rivers are likely to remain in a poor state for years to come because the government is failing to put in place EU clean water laws post-Brexit, the watchdog has found. When Britain was a member of the EU, the government was required to follow the water framework directive (WFD), standards for waterways that have been credited with cleaning up Europe’s dirty water. Only 14% of them deemed fit the scale of Britain's water problem is off the rails.

Perhaps the EU should try to raise their standards, Ireland, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Greece, Poland, Netherlands, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Croatia, Romania, Latvia, Lithuania, Bulgaria and Malta (all EU countries) are lower than the UK is clean water rankings. Only three EU countries have cleaner water than the UK: Finland, Sweden and Slovenia.

Only thing I can find is a report from 2022 which is obviously completely out of date by now;

"Sewage spills into England's rivers and seas by water companies more than doubled in 2023. According to the Environment Agency, there were 3.6 million hours of spills, compared to 1.75 million hours in 2022."

I think you probably know that you take every opportunity to attack Britain and praise the EU.

I'm not misrepresenting anything. The 2022 figures are the latest available - can you supply a more recent version? I certainly stand by my statement that you and the rest of the left on here are only happy when you are attacking Britain (and Israel).
