Another negative development to add to that list Jim is that the cost of lotsa European manufactured products/goods has increased by about 9%. Hence many UK manufacturers who purchase components, parts etc, add these additional costs to the UK consumer as well as considering the possibility of reducing wages! It's happening as we debate and it will certainly worsen as the UK pound devalues even more with the onset of this Brexit farce that is really gonna damage the UK 'big-time'. Also add that suggested £50B 'divorce settlement' before May even begins the tough negotiations to attain the 'best deal' for Scotland eh!
