OurMP Richard Drax has been a keen advocate of Brexit.<\/p>\n
So far the news stories are telling us that the deal the UK has agreed does not cover services (70% of our economy) or the arts (one of our strengths).<\/p>\n
Bureaucracy was supposed to be less but seems much worse.<\/p>\n
And the requirements for selling UK fish to Europe or mail order sales to Europe or taking horses to race in Europe seem not to have been properly thought out.<\/p>\n
UK language students are having to pay for expensive visas and prove an adequate income for their year studying abroad.<\/p>\n
We hear almost nothing about the positive side of Brexit - new markets, simpler regulations, less bureaucracy.<\/p>\n
The UK vaccination success is sometimes cited but it seems to be more about the vaccine task force than about a set of different regulations.<\/p>\n
Richard Drax writes a regular column for your paper. Could he be asked please to write a piece giving some positive examples of how leaving the EU has helped our economy, as a counterweight to the bad news stories?<\/p>\n
Or is the news universally bad?<\/p>\n
