| I’d be wary of pinning every bit of bad news onto the blame Brexit tag. In this instance the decline of high street shopping is well established and has been going on for years. It’s a combination of factors, from running costs through to online shopping to shopping centres such as Westfield. These are much more likely to be clear drivers of retail change than the more intangible link back to Brexit. So I’m not keen on saying that “Brexit caused it” as that claim is so easily and accurately refuted. However. Brexit and especially a no deal Brexit will act as an accelerant. Not a cause but the catalyst that speeds and worsens the problem. And this accelerant is having an affect already. Even if this is simply driven by low confidence in consumers and businesses. |
