>Every single one of the predictions of the Brexiters has been exploded: migration, taxation, funding the NHS, better public services etc.
Every single one of those went downhill in all of major EU economies since 2020 too. Considering UK had Brexit on top, the fallout seems pretty well managed.
>Always looking at growth rates and cherrypicking data.
We need to be looking at numbers we can somewhat objectively measure to compare. GDP number is cold and soulless, it doesn't care if you GDP went down because of a flood and your neighbor's because of a hurricane, it's still gonna be GDP vs GDP regardless of who fucked up what.
