Two regions have done well out of Brexit:

1. Northern Ireland, which has remained more integrated with the EU economy than the rest of the UK has seen its economy (measured by regional value added per person) increase more than any other region;

2. Rotterdam and surrounding environs, which have seen a major increase in warehousing by UK firms seeking to keep their stock/products *within* the EU.

Not sure either of those appeared on the side of a red bus....

"Not sure either of those appeared on the side of a red bus.... "

And let’s not forget the cynical, deliberate deception of what was written on that bus. Carefully constructed by lawyers to ensure that it was not 'incorrect' but effectively a total lie and a 40% increase over what the actual sum was.

Shitty people do, what shitty people do.
