So 98.5% of us will be financially worse off thanks to Brexit, exactly what many of us predicted. Way to go Brexiteers, we couldn't have done it without you, anything is worth it to get rid of all those pesky foreigners, right?
Anyway, if we stayed in the EU, the interest rate would off went up as the pound was too high.
BTW
how come your not windging to the business's when the pound went up,food prices never went down????“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

Hanging next then'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is. A single market without barriers visible or invisible giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the worlds wealthiest and most prosperous people' Margaret Thatcher0 -

Thanks Brexitards.
Money spent on domestically produced goods benefits everyone because it stimulates the economy - the multiplier effect.- The multiplier effect comes about because injections of new demand for goods and services into the circular flow of income stimulate further rounds of spending – in other words “one person’s spending is another’s income”
- This can lead to a bigger eventual final effect on output and employment
Another factor affecting the size of the multiplier effect is the propensity to purchase imports. If, out of extra income, people spend their money on imports, this demand is not passed on in the form of fresh spending on domestically produced output. It leaks away from the circular flow of income and spending, reducing the size of the multiplier.
So if more people buy domestically produced then - yes - THANKS Brexiters.0 -

This clearly demonstrates the illogical response of pro-remain advocates - prophesying based upon hearsay, which also amply demonstrates just who the "idiots" as you choose to term them really are.
*Hint*
By & large it is not the pro-Brexit majority.
BTW it is another 27 countries, not 26 AND I suggest you read more about discontent within the EU (if you do not have friends/family there as I do) before making such rash statements as " who don't see things the same way as you and your ilk".0 -
From the Indy today:
US Treasury's Lew urges UK and EU to ensure smooth Brexit
US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said Britain and the European Union need to ensure their economies remain “highly integrated” when Britain leaves the bloc, after he met financial industry representatives in London on Monday.
“The secretary reiterated that a transparent, smooth and cooperative process that results in a highly integrated economic relationship is in the best interests of Europe, the United States, and the global economy,”0 -
Taken from:-
http://ukpollingreport.co.uk/ on 24/10/16 re. the cross section of how the public split re. their voting pattern:-
'The relevance for Brexit polling is that there was a strong correlation between educational qualification and how people voted. Even within age cohorts, graduates were more likely to vote to Remain, people with few or no educational qualifications were more likely to vote to Leave. People with a low level of interest in politics were also more likely to vote to Leave.'0 -
Not suprisingly the supporters of Brexit are not reasonable, or good people, they are right wing scum like Donald J Trump, Nigel Farage, Boris turncoat Johnston etc. I'd rather be backing someone like Merkel any day!
Feel free to emigrate to Germany (if they will have you - my friends and family there would be horified at the prospect TBH).

You are joking, yes?!?! It's the Brexiteers who are jumping on every little thing (such as the Nissan announcement) as proof that Brexit was the right choice even though it will be at least two years before Brexit occurs... you couldn't make it up!Every generation blames the one before...
