Cracks me up that the argument now is “we’re in the same boat as Europe” when the argument for Brexit was that the EU was an anchor holding back Great Britain’s unique potential for greatness.
I'm not sure why you jumped to the conclusion that my observation was pro-Brexit. There's literally nothing in what I said that suggests that. I was only pointing out that it seems like its mostly factors outside of Brexit that have lead to this situation.
Of course, all the problems mendaciously blamed on the EU to justify Brexit were always really problems with UK governance in the first place, and Brexit was not going to make a difference.
