Oh dear me – poor Des Morgan still doesn't get it, does he?
Admittedly, he may have not seen the recent figures I supplied to the Adver (April 10), as he was too busy ranting against me in his letter on the same day!
So, for his benefit, I reiterate – government figures show an export loss to the EU of £5.6 billion in January 2021, a drop of 40 per cent. At this rate, over nine months we’ll have lost a sum equal to all the money the UK paid to the EU over 40 years – absolutely no benefit there. Put that on the side of a bus...!
