Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.
A new decade-long Brexit study explains it:
a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.
Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

To consider half the USA population as the enemy as POTUS does is deeply worrying. His comment to lay off Democrat federal workers is appalling. What ever happened to the principle of once democratically elected your duty is to looking after everyone’s interest.
