The governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney expressed the Brexit costs the UK economy an extreme lost growth worth £200m ($283m) a week. Carney made this announcement during the  World Economic Forum of business leaders held in  Davos, Switzerland, according to him, Britain lose about £10bn in GDP after the EU referendum in June 2016. Based on reports, this issue was mentioned during the meeting after a certain guest asked the governor to estimate the value in “Brexit buses”. In addition to it, Carney explained that the weekly damage brought by Brexit is equal to two thirds and three-quarters of £350 m ($496m).
