It's weird that, the UK has had slower economic growth in the last year than both of those countries. Wonder why?

If they have, it is not because they are in the EU. Their inability to control their economies due to being in the Euro Zone has damaged them big time.

Sod the foreigners, why not just ask those closer to home how they feel about paying for privately owned institutions to be saved at a cost to the public.........which funnily enough includes your good self.
Why do you find this brand of ''socialism'' acceptable?
You make it up as you go along.



Why do you think people flee from socialist countries rather than flock to them?

Well the reason is quite clearly linked to Brexit isn't it? I mean come on let's be real and straight forward about this for one day at least. Britain has had slower economic growth since the Brexit result than Greece, good grief, if that doesn't make someone unbury their head from the sand I don't know what will.

You have a very simplistic view of the reasons for rises and falls in the performance of economies.

You've still not answered a very simple question.

Supporting the banks was to avoid severe economic problems that would have badly affected ordinary people too - a 1930s style depression. But yes, you could argue that it could have been left to market forces to resolve things eventually.

That's what you're told will happen so that's what you (and the majority........so you're not alone) believe will happen. It's a crock.
7/8yrs now of 'austerity yet we're worse off now than we were then? Do the maths lol!

(For the record, the Federal Reserve caused the Crash of '29 and the subsequent depression. Not my words, Mr Greenspans.)

That's because it is simple. Since June of last year, we as a
European powerhouse have seen less economic growth than Greece. What is hard to decipher about that? Come on you must have some well prepared spin. Worth taking into account the positive move in the markets the day of the ruling for Brexit to be passed through parliament. Although you lot seemed to be very unhappy on the morning that everyone found out that we are actually a sovereign nation with a high court who rules to ensure British legislation is adhered to.

The Tories will be in power and Brexit will start off being a drastic failure, then a few years later the economy will show little green shoots, with the then need for increased immigration from Asia and Africa to fill the employment gaps helping it further, then it will go back to being a failure again.

The Tories will still be in power and on Question Time the old Brexiteers will shout out that it has been a roaring success. And the majority will be confused, feeling poorer, witnessing still more and more immigration from non-EU countries, whilst they are being told how great it has been.

Do you get a semi-on while you have these fantasies?

So expressing an intention to leave or stay in the EU is the only cause of changes in economies?
