Wishful thinking. Understandable in the circumstances but nonetheless, wishful thinking.

- Reduced food self-sufficiency -I believe Rees-Mogg has acknowledged this.

- Everyone on average worse off by £2k+ pa - tick - see the report I cited.

- Decreased productivity - see the report I cited of 2.5% reduction in Brexit. Previously cited but here

Replacement of existing models at Nissan is welcome news but should be a given. Where are the new factories? Tesla and BYD have ruled the UK out due to Brexit.

As Ian notes, Covid and Ukraine aren't just UK problem but I acknowledge that they will have impacted countries differently.
