        No deal Brexit voice proclaiming ‘cost too Britain’ in the years to come getting louder......scaremongering or might their be just some substance to it ?.....just asking.... The loudest voices for it are those that will be ‘untouchable’ in terms of individual financial loss.

        #Projectfear mk2 is being ramped up. The same voices from before the referendum: Blair, Major, Clegg, the BOE, IMF, Gina Miller, etc. Money funding anti-Brexit including Soros, Blair, etc. If that lot of elitists want to keep us in, it must be a bad idea.

        I’m personally not for or against any of the people or organisations mentioned (regarding Brexit)....I’d would like facts regarding the UK leave not hearsay, and facts that are not personality driven....just my opinion !

        I think it’s safe to safe there are few facts, but it’s mostly guesses, like the 500,000 job losses the day after the brexit vote, or the 350 million to the nhs, its all speculation until it happens.

        I accept your above statement. So ‘we’ move forward into a ‘new world’ on one of the biggest dissensions Britain has had to take since WW2 on guess work and the unknown.....devils advocate question......Um !

        More speculation than guess work. You can’t predict something that has so many factors that can counter each other, it’s also quite possible that the majority of the population will see little difference. If it was easy facts then there would be little counter viewpoints

        We better not trust them. They’re experts and we all know that the attitude today is that someone without any expertise or qualifications in a subject knows more than people that do.

        Your conflating 'expert' with an 'economic forecaster.' Remember the truism: 'The only function of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable'

        I wonder what could have happened 2 years ago that could possibly be related to this good fortune? Anybody got any ideas? No? Must just be luck I suppose.

        Lol. Where were we ranked before deciding to leave the EU? The rise in our economy was not because of our decision to leave the EU. How could it be? The main countries our businesses have been dealing with in the past 2 years are in the EU!!!

        We were ranked 6th in 2016 and our economic growth over the past 2 years is linked to the 📈 in FDI that happened after the #Brexit vote. Our largest single trading Partner continues to be the USA while U.K. trade with the EU continues to 📉 as it has done since the year 2000.
