Macron under fire for calling Brexit the biggest lie of 30 years

Original: « "They have lost 8 points of GDP since Brexit [..] Brexit is the biggest lie of the last 30 years," declares Emmanuel M

French President Emmanuel Macron is quoted saying the UK has lost eight points of GDP since Brexit and describing the decision to leave the EU as the biggest lie of the last 30 years. Critics are pushing back, arguing that the United Kingdom has actually been among the fastest-growing major European economies since leaving the bloc, and accusing Macron of misleading the public. The clash has reignited debate over the real economic cost of Brexit.

Why now: Macron's stark claim about Brexit's economic cost is being publicly challenged with contradicting growth figures.
