There is NO Brexit dividend now firms are taking flight

The economy is 2.1 per cent smaller than it would have been had the result gone the other way, according to a new analysis by the respected think-tank the Centre for European Reform. The hit to the public finances is £23 billion a year, or £440 million a week – higher than the £350 million promised on the side of the bus for the NHS.

In other words, there is no Brexit dividend, and it makes no sense to talk about one in terms of saved contributions to the EU in isolation from the performance of the economy.
