Rezensionen
'In this timely and incisive book, Gavin Esler dispels the myth that delivering a Brexit deal, or no deal, would bring an 'end' to Brexit. On the contrary, on everything from trade negotiations to decisions over our food standards and public services, getting Brexit "over the line" would be just the start. Admirably concise and well-researched.' — Francis Grove White, People's Vote Campaign 'Esler provides the evidence of what Brexit has already done to Britain and the harm that it's causing and will cause, in particular to the poorest in our society. A guide for all who want to understand what Brexit really means.' — Jessica Simor QC, Remain campaigner 'A brilliant demolition of the lies and liars that created the Brexit mess. Should be required reading at his old stamping ground, the BBC' — Alastair Campbell, writer and broadcaster Esler lays out with stark clarity the effects a Brexit will have on every significant aspect of our lives. In an ideal world every citizen would read this essential book, and think hard. This is the clearest, most uncompromising and most valuable statement of the facts available; and it could save us from a disastrous mistake. — AC Grayling, philosophy professor
