On the subject of Brexit. Look how much worse the UK has performed with exports than other countries

@chowderman @decodingtrolls well it puts the lie to the Brexit "opportunities" story that some Tories and media are still pushing.

Remember that Farage went on record before the referendum claiming that we could go for a Norway type deal, which also says that Brexit in Name Only, was one of the options pushed.

Given the state of the economy and the finances, it is utter vandalism to ignore a massive and entirely self-inflicted damage to the economy that was pushed by the Tories with a complicit media setting the agenda.

@ParkinJim @chowderman

Has anyone solved the mystery of the missing 10th Brexit "opportunity" that mysteriously wasn't on Mogg's list?

How long before the Brexiteers start advising Russia on the "opportunities" self-sanctioning can lead to? #Brexit

Have the Ruschists thought of flying in some Brexiteers? Dover deals with this kind of stuff the whole time. Operation Yellowhammer I think they called it. "How to introduce friction where there was none." Still, plenty of opportunities for graft.

@ParkinJim I love how Brexit Opportunity 2 (increase vacuum-cleaner wattage) and Brexit Opportunity 9 (reduce red tape on electrical wiring) combine into a self-generating metaphor for what #Brexit has done: mass electrocution.

@decodingtrolls also remember Rees-Mogg's "bonfire of the regulations" then Grenfell happened, showing that the regulations are already not strict enough
