    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.
  • Javid promising a significant economic policy response to a no-deal brexit.

    I'm hoping to be given a promise of a tax cut. That'll go nicely with the promise of a brexit dividend.

    Keeps the dullards on board I suppose.

    And a couple of years down the road there will be massive austerity to get the inevitable unsustainable debt down, like 2010 inevitably followed the tax cuts and spending of 2008.


    And all those on low income and the old, who voted Leave, will inevitably be the worst hit by austerity...I hope they remember then how they called everyone else snowflakes for not wanting to go over the cliff....

    No these people won't be financially effected by no deal - they look like hedge fund managers and the young, don't they?

    I think it may be unconscious. As in, it's so 'blindingly obvious' to the media luvvies that Brexit will be a disaster/Armageddon/disturb their pleasant way of life that everything they hear, think or say is through a Remainer prism without the need for conscious thought.

    Yes could be, there also seems to be deliberately thought out agendas and narratives as well though...

    So you believe that countries that stay in the EU are going to avoid this austerity and recession?

    :rotfl: Already the EU is shuddering at Italy and Germany's economies stalling and the ECB's running out of options for further stimulus so already it looks like avoiding recession is a big fat "no" but hey, they recovered quickly after the GFC ... or not since still unemployment remains stubbornly high and growth has at best been lethargic.

    Interesting reference as the public voted for boaty macboatface and didn’t get their democratic vote implemented.
    Maybe it was advisory only?

    Because there's not really any difference between a voluntary online poll by a research group for name suggestions and a national referendum, is there? :wall:

    One of the submersibles on the ship has been called Boaty McBoatface BTW but using that example out of sheer desperation to somehow deny Brexit goes to show that the denial really does get more than a little bit silly at times.
