On 24 June 2016, the day after the referendum, the Daily Mail warned that Brexit would lead to huge numbers of Poles leaving the UK.
Yesterday, the Daily Mail posted a piece moaning about the number of Poles who've left the UK.
In between, they published hundreds of articles attacking immigrants.

🙄 It’s the hypocrisy that sticks the most. The Daily Mail spent years attacking all migrants including Poles, they fought and gaslit the public to get Brexit over the line. Now they complain about the state of the country after cheering on its decline. Vile!
2016 Daily Mail: We want foreigners out! We don’t care if it makes us poorer. Brexit means Brexit!
2025 Daily Mail: Foreigners are leaving Starmer’s Britain because this country is poor and shit!
This country would be so much better off without this hypocritical, incendiary, irresponsible rag.
