17 ways things have gone hilariously downhill in the 2 years since the Brexit vote

We’ve learnt a lot in the two and a bit years since the Brexit referendum. For example, we can’t rely on the US to step in and fill any trade gaps, we’re going to have trouble getting enough people to pick the crops and the army may have to help with distributing food and medicines in the event of shortages. So, basically, all the stuff labelled “Project Fear”.

Comedy writer, James Felton, has been keeping an eye on the news and sharing it on his Twitter account, including these 18 takes on how things compare now with the year of the referendum and they simply nail it.
