Come off it, Ian, both sides lied.
And it has not been a catastrophe. True, the review of EU laws and so on has taken longer to get under way, but Covid lost us some valuable time. It's picking up now, with the first EU laws being extinguished and replaced within months and the remainder to follow. The Pacific trade deal is agreed and will provide a real fillip to our economy, particularly as it will cover favourable conditions for the service sector, our biggest earner.
Germany's economy is doing worse than ours, and yet you don't take into account these facts, preferring to concentrate on negative comparisons. It's a bit of an obsession, isn't it?
