With the UK in danger of crashing out of the European Union (EU) in less than 100 days time without a deal and ultimately costing the country billions, shrinking the economy, alienating neighbours and allies, and potentially leading to a monumental increase in unemployment and labour shortages, as well as the deployment of emergency measures, this article takes a look at the origins of Brexit, the subsequent negotiating process, and the disastrous consequences.

The piece also seeks to dispel the lies, myths and anti-European propaganda associated with Brexit and shed light on the harsh reality.
