The story of Europe’s economic decline while US is 'soaring' is everywhere.
But it is wrong. It is a myth.
Europe delivers more leisure, longer life expectancy, less inequality than the US.

What a victory! Today MPs narrowly backed our bill to cut the Brexit red tape and end this economic nightmare.
