Ahead of tomorrow's budget, readers have written to their local newspapers to say that Brexit has failed. Their letters reminded the public and policymakers of the economic damage done by Brexit.

"Nobody really knew for sure what a vote for leaving the EU meant almost a decade ago. This time there are plenty of warning signs for what a Farage led government might look like, and it's not pretty." Our latest letter in this morning's Yorkshire Post.

“This summer's "reset" deal with the EU might add about 0.3 percent to GDP in the long term, while the trade and investment deal with Gulf countries, unveiled by Reeves two weeks ago, will "add £1.6bn to UK GDP". That's, er, 0.07 percent of GDP.”
