Brexit continues to stir controversy as businesses face increased complexity and costs in trading with the EU, spending an average of £100,000 on post-Brexit customs. A poll indicates that 57% of Britons believe Brexit has been more of a failure than a success. Concerns about higher food prices and reduced choice arise, with 55% saying Brexit has harmed future growth prospects. Additionally, 54% believe Brexit has undermined Britain’s standing on the world stage, and 46% say it has impacted their standards of living. Andrea Leadsom, a pro-Brexit figure, dismisses fears of increased food costs as a 'price you pay' for Brexit, asserting that businesses were aware of the additional checks at the border. However, only 13% of Britons believe Brexit has been a success. The debate continues, with conflicting views on the impact of Brexit on the economy and trade with the EU.

In our @IpsosUK Brexit polling today there are two devastating figures: 1) Just 13% (!) think Brexit has had a positive impact on the UK's ability to control immigration / borders. Such a key factor in Leave winning. 2) 7 in 10 of those under 35 think it has been a failure. https://t.co/A0cZPrM0Sr

For those screaming at @andrealeadsom’s gaslighting and denial of responsibility this morning on @KayBurley @SkyNews this morning, here is @mrjamesob interviewing her and Pascal Lamy BEFORE Brexit. https://t.co/P9TJ2FQlww
And here is Leadsom, in June 2016, just before the referendum, insisting that UK businesses would have exactly the same access to the single market after #Brexit. Now she says "everyone always knew this was going to happen". ~AA https://t.co/bwg6HpX4xV https://t.co/J6aeICX2CF
Jeez. Even I can’t believe how much bull**** Health Minister Andrea Leadsom just told @SkyNews viewers about the benefits of Brexit. Will this lunacy never stop! If you think facts actually matter RT this widely https://t.co/cIEC4JEe0e
Andrea Leadsom car crash on #Brexit.

There are many parts of the UK that are flower growers." 👀~AA https://t.co/5AWMWcsOC4
Leadsom claims it was clear businesses would face higher costs during the referendum. In reality, people like her repeatedly claimed otherwise. https://t.co/5RWvw7ZTV8
