Speaking about Britain’s troubles in the post-Brexit era the actor said: “Oh, that’s teething trouble, it’s obviously not going to go well immediately.” However, the actor changed his tone about the current post-Brexit crises such as fuel shortages and supply chain woes while the Prime Minister is on holiday in Spain. Britain is facing a difficult winter labour shortages, skyrocketing natural gas prices and global supply chain constraints.
These economic woes came to a head this month when Britain’s National Pig Association warned that up to 120,000 pigs face being culled within weeks because of a lack of butchers and abattoir workers.
The Confederation of British Industry said its latest data showed 70 percent of companies were planning to raise wages in order to encourage more British workers.
Several energy suppliers in Britain have collapsed since September causing gas prices to climb to record highs.
The price hikes will fall on more than 22 million UK households, who are connected to the British gas grid.

When quizzed by Sky News as to why he thought the British public voted for Brexit Sir Michael said the reason was “freedom” rather than as a result of racism or anxiety over immigration.
The actor added that Britain’s exit from the EU would be “all right”.
