'I was diagnosed with PTSD over Brexit,' Lib Dem councillor says

Antonia Harrison, who represents the party in Havant, near Portsmouth, said "something died in me… I just gave up" after Britain left the European Union.

Speaking at the party's autumn conference in Brighton, Ms Harrison told The Independent: "I have not been in Sudan fighting in a war, but it has had a profound impact on me. I am European to my core, and my identity has been ripped out.

Ms Harrison said her life was enriched by Britain's membership of the EU, having lived in Brussels and learned eight languages. "The day after the election, I told my daughter 'this is the worst day of your life'," Ms Harrison said.
