Cabinet minister in ‘complete denial’ over Brexit harm to Britain’s economy which experts put at £31billion
An analysis by the Centre for European Reform puts the GDP blow to the UK economy from quitting the EU at £31 billion.
The leading think-thank estimated the figure by creating a doppelganger model of Britain’s economy to compare how it would have performed if it had remained in the European trading bloc.
Leading Brexiteers have dismissed its findings but not come up with any figures of their own.
