A strong Eurozone economy is excellent news for the UK economy.

We had plenty of good economic news from the Eurozone lately.
Not so much from the UK.
So your statement is....incorrect.

As ever fact-free Remainers ignored the reports of UK manufacturing up at those sorts of levels reported several times in the last 10 months and posted here.


Also note some EU nations are growing form a very low base and sustained poor performance over years since 2010

How typical of someone dense enough to have fallen for Project Fear, not to mention the EU unemployment rate which is still acute in Spain, Italy and elsewhere.

UK construction sector moves back into reverse gear

Don't you tire of posting this same story only to have it rebuked a few weeks later with 'surprising boost for UK developers'?
As oft' stated, B2L investors went into hibernation as predicted due to big tax hikes feeding through. That was a key market for developers - once again you ignore reality. It's no surprise if Developers are feeling the effects of dumb policy


I've gone over this with you guys latching onto retail sales declines and how EVERY time they are subsequently overturned with 'surprise' numbers? Did you want me to post up the entire list once again?

System

I bet the government wished they'd not spent so long playing politics and fighting pointless legal cases. They could've been negotiating with an EU in the doldrums and the UK at the top of the G7 growth table.

The 'they need us more than we need them' mantra looks less likely by the day.

I will be reminding you of this statement when the good trade deal is done.


If you think thousands of Irish citizens and French farmers as but will merrily play along with an impending harmful trade settlement, you really don't understand the Human condition.
