Looking forward to updating my subnational #BrexitCost numbers. They were first published 3 years ago as exclusive in the Financial Times.
At the time, #Brexit was still not a political reality - three years on subnational GVA data is available up to 2020 at local authority level & up to 2022 Q3 at regional level.
I hope to do this by summer. It will be interesting. We will be contrasting two treatments: the Brexit vote & actual Brexit.
How did things look up to 2020?
Canterbury appears to be a Brexit-vote Loser. The estimate suggests that the Brexit-vote has cost Canterbury 's economy 209.27 million pounds in 2018. https://www.brexitcost.org #Brexit #Brexitcost via @fetzert
Fact 2: The Turkey's did vote for Christmas.
For every 10 p.p. higher support for Leave in 2016, the #Brexit induced GDP loss is 2 percentage points higher.
In addition, the districts and areas with highest #BrexitCost #BrexitReality
- have a larger manufacturing- and agricultural sector
- had more migrants from EU accession countries
- have less educated resident population
The places that voted Leave the most are hit the hardest. Yes, the turkey's did vote for Christmas.

How obscene that #FoodBank have become normalised in the 6th richest country in the world. What kind of dystopia is it when Tory politicians make headlines celebrating the opening of new food banks and big food retailers embrace them in their digital marketing to boost their profits?

I think I should soon try to update https://www.brexitcost.org -- if only I had more time and was not held back by shortsightedness around me so much more could be done.
#Research is more important than ever to document how poor political stewardship of our #economy & #society is not serving people. Brexit is the most important case in point.
It was sold as everything for anybody - its magical thinking crashes hard against realities.
A lie never lives to be old!

A Brexit that was sold as anything for anybody was always hit hard realities.

Off to ๐ฎ๐ช to see my mummy, Iโm still an eu citizen thanks to her - I get to use my Irish passport now and forever more while my ๐ฌ๐ง gathers dust #BrexitDisaster #BrexitCost
Is the mainstream media ever going to properly report on how #BrexitBrokeBritain and made us the sick man of #Europe?
I'm exhausted waiting for the truth to out.

Another #BrexitCost to the already stretched UK Taxpayer
as UK has agreed to pay France tens of millions of pounds in a new deal stuck between the two nations to deal with the escalating migrants crisis.
