I would say exiting gives a better decision making process for now and the future for the UK IMHO. Also when all global and Euro currency changes kick in as there will be huge changes for sure. The UK will be able to create a better scenario I'm sure. Without Covid I'm sure the UK outlook with the EU would have been likely much weaker.

What remaining or exiting?

Exiting. Yes Boris promised that Brexit will be done. And it will.

There won't be a better deal, because there won't be any deal.
So we'll all be worse off.

"But we'll be able to make our own rules....."
Which is great except that everyone outside of the UK will take no notice of them as it won't apply to them.

Great work Boris! :rolleyes:

I'm not so sure we will be worse off now than we would have been, although it will be pretty impossible to gauge or quantify. One thing is likely.....most of the poorer areas of the EU will be used, abused and become worse off. Germany and its cronies will almost certainly benefit. I think it is better we are not involved as I fear some weaker EU countries will find. With all the kerfuffle going on it is an ideal time to create better trade terms than we would have ever been able to do remaining or exiting pre-Covid.

All IMHO of course.

The issue between Greater Manchester and the government is not to go into lockdown or not but the level of monetary assistance to help furloughed workers, entrepreneurs, self-employed etc with the loss of earnings.
Andy Burnham worked it out at £75m, the government argued £60m but have now turned round and said 'go into lockdown and have £22m.'

Prior to the tier system being announced a couple of weeks ago the local authority in Manchester was predicting a budget shortfall of £65m, now their after £75m from central government. Probably just coincidental
