    I hate how Brexit is played down even in this headline. It makes it seem like it was always going to get like this and Brexit just made it a bit worse.

    “Drug shortages more than double since we left the EU”

    Is how I want to see these headlines spun.

      Its why they chose to go on through with brexit, right when we were staring down the barrel of a pandemic and economic shutdown, despite the EU saying we can pause until its over. It left those utter tories enough with plausible deniability to be able to declare its everything else’s fault but brexit.
