Happy New Year one and all!

[JamesWales]

May 2023 be better than 2022 for you all. Whatever problems you faced in 2022 may they be more easily overcome in 2023!

Have a good one.

Now I'm off to watch City in the pub then the rugby at the Arms Park.

You need to come back to the board. Life on Mars is proving there is none in her/his/their brain. At least you could type (mostly) coherent English.

Is the fact pretty much everyone has now realized Brexit is killing the UK making you take an extended leave of absence?

This is more than 6 years since the vote and more than 2 years since we left

Thanks AZ but I am enjoying the break!

It can't be what you suggest!. I've just checked those pesky facts.

Seems it's less a case of Brexit killing the UK and more a case of the UK doing better than our peers on some measurements and less good on others. Almost as if it's a complex, balanced situation that shrill EU-anon guys misrepresent?
