        Amazed that brexiters still claim that there has been no financial repercussions following brexit and it was all just project fear.

        Inflation has been a lot higher previously long long before any mention of a referendum, so who did you blame for that?

        Last time it was this high it was coming back down from the high after the global financial crisis. This time it's a crisis we voted for!

        True but I just don't get this. If Tories increase their majority, they will 100% own the impending crash and disastrous Brexit. All on them

        ..an upturn. Also, the opportunity, while no one is looking at the economy, to have a big majority is too tempting.
