    Just for clarity could you confirm whether this is

    a) Because of Brexit

    or

    b) Despite Brexit

    TIA.

        In-ger-land indeed.

        And yes we are all sick of the B word - this one is a bit of an old joke in that depending on the media source you used everything bad was because of and everything good was despite (or vice-versa depending on your media source/pov)

                    What, is he threatening to lose an 8th election?
                    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
