Brexit: Were there ANY benefits to the UK leaving the EU?

Roundtable

Show Notes

The UK voted to leave the European Union ten years ago in a shock result which led to the resignation of then Prime Minister David Cameron.

The leave campaign promised economic growth, control over Britain's borders and more funding available for the UK's health service.

But ten years on, how did the Brexit vote change the UK and its place in the world - and were there any benefits to Brexit?
