Boris Johnson was said to have swerved the topic of Brexit impact in a call with more than 200 business leaders earlier this week.
“It was a meaningless call, it was all mottoes, we are going to build back business better, build back business greener and a few patsy questions about how much better it would be, nothing about the realities of Brexit and Covid hitting us all hard,” said one business leader.
The problem with that approach is it just kicks the can down the road. Eventually, even a weak press and a disinterested population will realise that things are materially shitter.
They really don't give a shit about anything.
