There are so many variables, here that most are not aware of, so for any layman to simply state Brexit will be a disaster is not only untrue, because no-one knows, but simple, blatant scaremongering.

There have been predictions based on facts and figures from both sides - but Brexit is what was voted for and until people stop whining and pull together for a decent deal no-one will know.

I didn't say it's nothing to be bothered about but it is a debatable subject (e.g if you believe that membership brings more than 13bn a year into the UK condom in trade to offset that spend). It's a very different figure to 350bn a year which could never be compensated for.

I know you might not think so Brillo but getting your facts and figures at least half way correct is important if you want to be taken seriously. It's impossible to have an actual discussion of the facts when they're so wildly off.

Edit: my phone autocorrected "economy" to "condom" but it made me giggle so I'm not fixing it.
