>Brexit didn't cause Britain's economic malaise. Its roots lie much earlier with the increasing dominance of finance, culminating in the 2008 banking crash.

>Reversing Brexit won’t correct these problems. Instead, we need a fundamental reorganisation of our bloated financial sector and our distorted capitalist structures.
