Jacob Rees-Mogg is humiliated over Brexit by business owner
The director of a company that imports wine from the EU explained to the BBC Question Time audience how terrible bureaucracy has become since Brexit, and how much more difficult it is to do business.
He pointed out that there have been no benefits from Brexit – the promised money for the National Health Service never materialised and the Tories had to increase the amount we all pay in National Insurance in order to provide any more.
Tory panellist Jacob Rees-Mogg tried to fudge his way through by claiming that bureaucracy had been eased by his government’s decisions – but the businessman, who has experience of the reality, said in fact matters have been made 15 times more complicated:
Rees-Mogg clearly subscribes to the Michael Gove attitude that “we’ve had enough of experts”.
It’s because experts are going to hand his backside to him any time he tries to cross them.
