You’re only saying what I’m saying. You have not justified rejoining - you have only bemoaned the governments’ failures.

And since we left the EU, regulation of the water companies has been demonstrably weakened.

Agreed, it's denial of the purest form.

Just how many more prime ministers do you need Seph before you acknowledge that Brexit has not brought the benefits you dreamed of?

In a way Brexit has made us more European - frequent changes of PM, high taxation and end to stable government!

The Remainers trot out this line without justification. Quoting GDP changes withoput specifics and actions to make GDP increase happen is lazy remainerism. As for red tape on exports, all that can be automated.

How so? Our Net Zero policies are the problem here. Also, if we drill, we can assure gas supply for homes and power by buying all the output up (at market prices). Even I could negotiate such a deal with licencees. Critical to all this is rebuilding our gas storage facilities.

And since we left the EU, regulation of the water companies has been demonstrably weakened.

Oh please. A willing governmnet can regulate the ewater industry as much and as properly as it wants, including use of criminal law. For this industry, Thatcher has much to answer for and all governments since have not regulated this runaway profit taking industry properly.

That’s a totally vacuous question. What’s need is a PM that grasps the issue properly, defining what needs to be done to grow the econonomy and stepped benefits that will follow as tghe plan is achieved. This will be very difficult given the years that have passed. But rejoining the EU dows not solve the problem of economic growtrh; rather the opposite - it’ll be easier for them to sell to us.

Actually, this country is well effed due to shot government. It has to be id elections are gonna be won on issues such as the boat people; mind you, that’s terrorism on a plate for you.

By how much (in annual GBP)? Please back up your argument so that the voter can take that to the referendum booth.
