Sir David Davis, the former Brexit minister, claimed that supporters of the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union were right about the consequences, GB News reported.
“I think a lot of it’s based on just nonstop propaganda. Put aside immigration for a second, all the other things we were told, you’re going to have a million more unemployed. Oh no, actually 150,000 fewer unemployed. Your growth rate is going to be crushed: Actually, we’re doing better than Germany, Italy and France. On the all the things that most of the opponents were talking about, we were right, they were wrong.”
Davis reminded that he resigned as Brexit minister because he thought Theresa May was making the wrong decisions. However, he also recognised that the government’s performance had been “not bad at all.”
So even though we didn’t do it brilliantly, which is my view, actually it’s turned out not bad at all. To put it bluntly, we’ve got the right to make our own mistakes and at least we can fire the people who do it.
