[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 142467, member: 33"] Theresa May's government's own analysis has concluded that Brexit will make Britain poorer. While Brexiteers told us during the referendum campaign it was all "Project Fear" the evidence highlights the damage this foolhardy policy will have on our economy. Official figures say the UK economy could be up to 3.9% smaller after 15 years under Theresa May's Brexit plan, compared with staying in the EU. This equates to a loss of £100 billion from our economy every year. If we have a no deal Brexit things could be about 3 times worse. On Theresa May's Brexit plans, that's the equivalent of everyone who voted for Brexit in the referendum paying more than £50,000 more each year in tax. I think they should be made to pay up. They wanted this catastrophic policy so why should those of us who voted and campaign against Brexit suffer because of their desire to leave the EU?
