    Of course there would have been a lot of risks in the economy had we voted to Remain

    I do think its utterly bizarre how many who voted Brexit are either unwilling to recognise or admit that adding a load of new risks and uncertainty on top an already unstable Global and British economic situation might not have been necessarily to the economic benefit of the nation.

    There were clearly other non-economic reasons why people voted Brexit, and that was absolutely their right, but it gets boring reading the same nonsense all the time about Brexit only having economic upsides for us.

    The issue I have with the heavy devaluation of Sterling isn't so much its impact but more its cause, a collapse in confidence in the UK's economic future, you can disagree with that as much as you like but that is an opinion clearly held by people with money at stake, who could care less about spinning political points to make a case, they just want to make money.

    Will devaluation held the deficit? Quite probably albeit at the expense of making all of us either with Sterling savings or earning wages in Sterling a bit poorer. Giving us all a nominal paycut would achieve much the same impact and I doubt many of us would be rushing to volunteer for that for the greater good!


    so you believe that rapidly growing foreign debts is in the best interests to the economy of the UK,
    and you believe that selling off the UK best industries and businesses is in the best interest of the UK.
    and you think that the reduction in the inward dividend flow into the UK for the foreseeable future is in the best interest of the ecomony of the UK

    so you believe is a good thing to sacrifice the future for a few bob today

    I'd suggest this disappears very rapidly, as it could get you into serious legal trouble.

    Reported to forum team, and it will be reported to the police if it hasn't gone by the morning.

    Imagine the hysterical shrieking from lefties on Twitter if a tory or right wing commentator had used "retard" in an insult.

    This is the world's smallest violin playing for Brexitards:

    Time wasters that report such things are the reason many sites are stopping comments. I always think the snowflake narcissists think the mods are there just for them and love haveingnthier busy days interrupted with tittle tattle and thin skinned safe space attention seeking

    Just to get Remoaner diatribes into perspective, remember the IMF said our growth will outstrip the G7, inflation is at long last turning towards target level, super low interest rates fell again, stock markets booming, consumer confidence at 5 yr high, exports up, manufacturing indicators very strong, retail sales booming, house prices up.
