    I was merely pointing out that GDP is a tool to look at the economy as a whole, but it can not visualise more specific trends or inequalities, let alone those caused by Brexit.

      If any have been caused by brexit. 95% of UK companies don’t export to the EU after all.

        There are definitely effects on the British economy because of Brexit, just alone the loss in confidence in the British economy after the vote and the uncertainty following it.

          They are so small they can’t be discerned in the figures though. Especially when compared to covid and russian invasion
