You asked and i answered, whats your problem with that?
Numbers really in comparison to Europe,otherwise I have no problem.
Of course you can ignore inconvenient facts
So here, have a few
poverty after brexit - Google Search
where’s the comparison?.
The uk does not count as eu after brexit so no charts giving direct comparison after 2019 meaning you can stick your head in the sand.
But papers give france just over 19% child poverty, uk just over 30%
Which papers?,how legit are they?,I think they are comparable although the further east you go the figures are sky high which obviously means that being a member of the eu doesn’t prevent poverty.

You don't address any points made in this thread, you just bring up a totally different topic.
I think that goes a long way to proving that your argument is lost.

Have you heard of Marcus Rashford?

Lightly seared on the reality grill.
Most people probably didn't think about it in any depth, and one of the most obvious parts of the leave campaign was the barefaced lie on the side of the bus. Every time people said that we'd be worse off it was dismissed as 'project fear'. The referendum was won with lies.

Very strong language
Yes and my point is that there is poverty in the UK. I never said it was native to the UK, please do not put words in my mouth.
Head in sand? The uk is comparable with with several poverty stricken eastern European countries and Google is your friend.
UNICEF have stepped in to feed starving children in the UK. First time since it was formed has UNICEF had to help and that includes during and after WW2.
And i have never said the EU prevents poverty what i have said is that the poverty rate in the UK has increased more than 50% since brexit. True that covid has also been involved here but the same can be said for any country, and their poverty rates may have increased a little but have not done a UK sky rocket
So still no comparative figures then.
Ok,we can agree that there’s poverty.
Truth in referendums or elections is a rarity,the fact is that the leave campaign won despite the many underhand tactics of the remain camp.
Footballer.
I disagree of course.
You still here with your head in the sand, how typical of a brexiter you have become
Blind to what is happening to your (our) country because you have your sovereignty back

Underhand tactics of the remain camp?
So we are just going to ignore the very illegal campaign of the leavers involving stolen facebook data, illegal psychological warfare tactics to manipulate public opinion as provided by the company known as Cambridge Analytica, which quickly closed up shop and destroyed their servers once they realized they were on authority radards?
It certainly seems so. 5 years later and aside from a commission hearing of the CEO that almost no media covered it seems nobody cares that figures of authority used illegal psychological warfare tactics on its citizens in order to manipulate elections / referendums.
This is how you kill democracy.
Erm I remember that the remain camp wanted to reverse the result of the referendum and I also remember a resounding victory at the general election to double stamp it.
