Ten years after the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, the economic impact of Brexit is becoming increasingly clear. Experts estimate the UK economy is 4%-8% smaller than it would have been had the country remained in the EU, leading to lower living standards and reduced public service funding. While Brexit proponents argued for greater control over policy and a revitalized economy, trade has been hampered by non-tariff barriers, and many promised trade deals have not materialized. Immigration remains a contentious issue, with net migration from non-EU countries increasing despite a drop from EU nations. AI
