It never fails to amaze me that the likes of James Bovington still preaching his anti UK rhetoric in this letter column and more than likely to his students and the Leeds for Europe brigade have still got their woolly hat stuck over their eyes (The Yorkshire Post, July 8).

All the doom and gloom stories of Remainers have been proved fairy tales - no the pound has not fallen out of the sky and companies have not abandoned the UK. On the contrary companies are now flooding back with employment surging. Yes there may be some losers but in general the Brexit deal is and will continue to work in the UK’s favour.
