I might argue whether certain things are or are not a product of Brexit, but I would certainly never argue that Brexit as a process does not come with complications. My point is, existing as a sovereign state with full democratic control of its own institutions and agencies is for the long-term good of the nation and its people, and this country’s resilience is such that it can more than cope with the effort necessary to get us there.

Fair points , I guess it can be asked if the juice is worth the squeeze and that will always be a personal decision.
to add I might also be slightly more confident in our situation if we had any sign of a competent government.
I do seem however to remember that many people (I don’t mean you) who were advocating to leave stating quite clearly that there would be no issues and those those issues which we are seeing we’re deemed as project fear. Now, I’m not saying that everything we are currently facing is 100% due to us leaving but it plays it’s percentage part.
The worst thing i think is that the way that the two camps have vilified each other, it’s operating at an almost extremist level with shouts of treason and racism being used to classify the masses on either side.

You’re right, it shouldn’t, but, there are those that would seek to blame covid for everything, as there are those that would choose to try and blame
Brexit for everything.
