The government ditched plans to help refugees learn English Exclusive: Bravermanโ€™s attack on immigrants followed government failure to deliver promised strategy to teach English

Suella Braverman and Lee Anderson want to complain about migrants who can't speak English, but they ditched their promise to provide targeted English language learning. Their hostility is actively making it harder for migrants to enter British life. www.opendemocracy.net/en/esol-nati...

It's this simple ...
If Brexit was a success, then more members would be leaving. But as it stands, not a single EU member has followed Britain's lead. So you can either assume that all 27 members are stupid and don't know what's good for them, or that GB made a terrible mistake.
