Brexit is the reason today’s Budget squeezes families, yet the government is still shuffling towards solutions that demand real urgency. We need far bolder steps back towards the single market if we want future budgets that lift people up rather than drain them.
Baby steps won’t fix Brexit or the Budget
There is a way to get back a much bigger slice of the money Brexit has cost us. By getting the UK back into the EU single market.

As the Budget concludes, Sir John Major's words are more relevant than ever. Both the Labour Government and Conservative opposition are being wretchedly timid in their policy aspirations. They must confront the consequences of Brexit if they want to prevent further damage.

Ministers may keep dodging the topic, but the Treasury's own figures prove that Brexit was a mistake. Weaker growth and higher costs are embedded in every forecast, and the economic wreckage is now impossible to hide.

New polling from European Movement UK shows that three quarters of people who see the economic damage of Brexit now back joining the Single Market and Customs Union to cut taxes and rebuild public services. The public knows the route to recovery, even if the Government refuses to face it.

The Chancellor wants to "boost trade, increase investment, and champion innovation", but is failing to fix one of the principal causes of the economic crisis: Brexit. The Government must urgently repair our relationship with Europe, or else forthcoming Budgets will continue to bear the brunt.

The OBR is clear that the UK’s trade slump is being made worse by Brexit, which continues to drag on growth at the very moment we need the opposite.

The OBR could not be clearer today. Weak growth is tied to Brexit, which they now expect will leave UK trade 15% smaller in the long term.

Up to £90bn in lost tax revenue a year and Brits up to £3,700 worse off after Brexit. We must fix our relationship with Europe urgently to prevent any more damage to the economy.

£100 billion of trade a year and over a million jobs since Brexit have been lost. We agree with Sir John Major, Brexit is a flop, but now, we must fix it.

The Government have recognised the damage caused by Brexit, yet they are failing to fix it. Delay in action is pushing our country further into despair, and will do so until we begin to repair our relationship with Europe.
