Brexit Is Costing The UK Up To £90 Billion A Year In Lost Tax

Brexit is costing the UK up to £90 billion a year in lost tax revenue, new analysis has revealed.
The Treasury missed out on £250 million a day in 2025, according to research published by the House of Commons library.
A recent study by US think-tank the National Bureau of Economic Research found that the British economy is between 6% and 8% smaller than it would have been had Brexit not happened.
According to the House of Commons library, that resulted in between £65bn and £90bn less tax being paid to the government in 2024/25.
It also found that the average Brit is between £2,700 and £3,700 worse off as a result of the UK’s decision to leave the EU.
