They probably have genetic differences.Would the strips they wear always be red and blue?As for my political stance, I don’t have one.
Do you accept that we have had a SERIOUS economic hit?

Watch my lips.THERE WAS NO INSTANT RECESSION.THERE WAS NO PUNISHMENT BUDGETS.THERE WERE NO PENSION REDUCTIONS.
So you keep saying! But, getting back to the point, what I can't understand for the life of me is why the £350m NHS bus slogan is claimed to be such a clincher in the outcome of the result. After all, all the racist, selfish, thick, inconsiderate, what's mine's mine leave voters wouldn't really give a shit about the NHS, would they?
On the flip side, I don't see mass unemployment, mass lack of investment or significant corporate failure either. Has it been about as I expected? Probably better given covid and the opportunities of brexit still remain as do some risks but it's not the big disaster many of you expected/wanted in some cases.It still remains that if we don't like the outcome of brexit that's not the fault of brexit but the government in place.

BB once again not interested in actually discussing. Just wanting another argument. Best of luck.

If people voted to be better off economically in the short term there is a discussion to be had, if people went into the booth to determine self government and independence there is no argument and discussion to be had.

I caught something on the wireless earlier this week that said the UK was expected to have the fasted GDP growth across the G7 countries this year. So maybe some recovery is in sight?
Oh yes there was Syd, if you believe in freedom and independence there was only one way to vote, and that was to get out before things got far worse and the EU becomes what some always wanted and it will become a federal state. And politicians like Starmer and his entourage going back and forwards colluding openly with their mates in Europe were the nail in the coffin of a remain vote for many. Their actions were the opposite to the lies they were spinning, and were seen through by the electorate. You gobbled the lies and many more like you, that's why you lost.

So maybe some recovery is in sight? That will be the OECD forecast Herbert, they said it will be slightly less than predicted last quarter (tho I guess the latest energy issues and the opening of more travel routes might affect it again).The UK will have the largest growth - because it had the largest fall. The countries which took a smaller hit will have lower growth. All fairly standard and mentioned on here several times previously.

So a fair analysis shouldn't compare our actual GDP growth to Germany's over that period. It should compare the CHANGE in our GDP growth to the change in comparable countries. Ours went down by about 0.75%. All the other G7 countries (whether doing well or poorly in 2015) went up by 1% or so. And that lasted until 2019. So from straight after the Brexit vote, our economy suddenly started performing 1.5-2% worse than expected. And that continued for 3 years. That means that by 2019 our GDP was about 5% lower than we might reasonably expected if we'd have experienced the miniboom that the rest of the G7 had. That's about £100bn in 2019. And that comes on top of losing about £60bn in 2018 and £30bn in 2017. £190bn in total. Eye watering amounts.
BST. I've just had a thought. Are you that 'Insulate Britain' motorway Eco-warrior bloke who was on GMTV today? It's just that you share the same annoying condescending attitude that makes me think there can't be two people in the world as patronising as that. Right back to the main topic. Why do you ignore my point? What I said was I can't understand for the life of me why the £350m NHS bus slogan is claimed to be such a clincher in the outcome of the result, when the blatant scaremongering employed by the Remainers was, in my opinion, far more influential in making people decide to vote remain.Yeah? No?
