wait, wasnt the whole brexit campaign run on UK preventing/controling immigration (instead of having to follow EU rules)? Immigration actually increased after brexit?
what benefits did UK get after leaving the EU exactly? lmao
look at these twats:
"The NHS budget (in England alone) has in fact risen by more than £350m a week since 2016. In fact, between 2015-16, the year before the referendum, and 2019-20, the year before the Covid-19 pandemic, it rose by £400 million a week in real terms.
This increase in the budget owed nothing to diverting savings from leaving the EU (though it may have owed something to Brexit’s political ramifications). Brexit has had an
economic impact roughly as severe as was predicted: spending has had to come from taxes, borrowing and squeezing other departments.
Although this may seem like a significant boost in funding, the NHS budget is so vast that this is actually far from an unusual rate of increase, and in fact
barely kept pace with a growing and aging population. The service remains strapped for cash, and through much of this period invested a strikingly low amount in equipment and buildings compared to other systems globally. If the public hoped for a transformative sum post-Brexit which would arrest problems in healthcare, they did not receive it."
oh so politicians were full of shit? who would have thought.
