That does not show "that Brexit will be a huge positive for the EU-27" though, does it?
Neither do your indices, since we remain part of the EU; we have not left yet.
So again, do you have anything confirming your opinion "that Brexit will be a huge positive for the EU-27" or is it just that; your own opinion?

Talking of the future as the Henry Jackson Society does can be no more than a forecast; an opinion.

Are you trying to say that the UK hasn't been a reluctant member the whole time it's been in? That it hasn't been resisting the "ever closer union" everyone else wants?

It's pretty obvious we're a nuisance to the EU, and money aside, they'll be glad to rid of us and our complaining.

They'll also love the many banking/insurance/clearing jobs coming their way. I can only see the EU economic revival gathering strength in the coming months and years.

Spot on. Your Henry Jackson piece was just opinion.

Recent economic indices however, showing the EU powering ahead and the UK stuck in the slow lane are....facts.

Glad we agree on this one.

Ho hum.
A "new" poster with a very familiar style, it seems.

You appear to ( deliberately ? ) misunderstand: you can not be certain about the future.

Oh, is that why they're so desperate to grab our cash?
Is that why the Danes, the Irish, the Dutch etc. etc. etc. are grumbling about their future without the UK?

Confidence in the City remains resilient with the number of jobs up by nearly a third in August, compared to the same time last year.

Immediately we have left?
When?
Because so far we have been threatened with so much ........... which has not materialised.
