mattfrei I wish I could feel sorry for the Businesses who voted for Brexit, even though they were warned about the negative impact it would have- but I'm struggling to care. Sorry, I'll get there!

mattfrei The Brexiters didn’t want the single market! They told voters that leaving the EU would lead to a nirvana where Customs checks disappeared because ‘we’re British’. They opposed Freedom of Movement denying it for their own citizens but can’t fill vacancies and moan and groan!

mattfrei “This frustrated business owner who voted for Brexit because she was 'fed up with the bureaucracy' of the EU now has 'more of it' Wow 🤩 that is one of the worst self inflicted Karma I have ever heard of! Welcome to the real world Miss Brexiteer.

No compromise on Northern Ireland protocol as Truss vows to rip up Brexit pactThe European Union has accused Foreign Secretary Liz Truss of failing to compromise in negotiations over the future of Northern Ireland post-Brexit.

If so he didn't read the paper. Or didn't understand it. Or he didn't ask for help to understand it. Looks like he just rushed it through. Without thinking it through with his personal. Well that will be another monumental act of self harm. Trade war with EU and send a big 'up yours' to the Americans.
