Brexit - or Article 50: the Phoenix!

[robinthehood]

I see the EU growth forecasts have been reduced further as they believe the internal market (which they have relied upon) is shrinking and Germany's growth of an historic 2% has pretty much gone negative.

Project fear 😉😂

I wouldn't believe forecasts...

You looked outside then

I noted and posted the comments from a German economist purely as it a subject of interest - its entirely up to you whether you consider it a matter of 'fear'.

Did I endorse it, just a interesting comment from respected German economist? There are BoE forecasts of growth beyond Brexit out this week and yet today a BoE is quoted that growth is going to be lower - so take your pick.

Yes growth, just less of it.... still growth though. I guess it's how you spin it 😉

Yes, they have some things to fear when the cash cow dries up and the budget bleeds them.

Yes we are single handedly propping up the entire EU....

Are we! well you live and learn. I thought there were a few of us but some were in recession and the many snouts in the trough were still hungry.

Reverse for me, those Lions are what the EU has reduced our once proud country into, drowned in beurocracy, drained of self pride, dragged under by a millstone around our necks. Time to set ourselves free and do what we do best, face up to the world and lead by example.
Rule Britania!

Merkel says "No wall that keeps people out and restricts freedom is so high... that it cannot be broken down,"

Little does she say about new walls around US and Brexit. Maybe 30 years from now we will look at our ‘beautiful wall’ and wonder what could have happened if we stayed ....

And she speaks on behalf of one of the most protectionist wall building outfits in the world. She is correct that it cannot stand the test of time and will fail as it attempts to homogonise nations.
