Brexit, e-travel permits, no VAT-free shopping, no right of EU citizens to enter with EU ID cards, hurdles for school classes, customs limits, longer border checks ... All of this has had a devastating impact on UK tourism – compared to 2019 but especially to 2016!

More damage from Brexit.
The World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) has announced it will close its headquarters in the UK because of Brexit.

“lower operational costs and EU single market access” are cited as reasons.

Brexit was, is and always will be a disaster.

💷 Brexit hasn't just cost us billions of pound, our personal freedoms, or our businesses growth.

🗺️ It is slowly eroding our soft power around the world.
