They were doing it, I am absolutely correct on that one. 6 hours ago, Confusion of VIs said: Pre the referendum forecasters were expecting the UK to match US growth, in 2015 one even said the UK was entering a olden decade. But that is delusional. It's those same ideas that are used in the doppleganger studies. Do you feel that any country in the EU is entering a golden age at the moment?

msi Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 UK exaggerating Brexit dividend from City reforms, says watchdog The UK government is exaggerating the benefits of its landmark financial reforms and being “disingenuous” in describing it as a Brexit dividend, according to the Conservative chair of a key parliamentary watchdog.

I wonder what the BoE will have to do to sort that out, and what the effect will be in other areas of the economy Brexit is to blame for inflation, claims Mark Carney https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2023/06/16/mark-carney-interview-brexit-inflation-interest-rates/ Sorry guys, meant to post it in this thread.

Huggy Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 The BBC are also pondering this. It surprises me that in one of 20 similar threads, Vodafone increasing roaming charges by £15 for a fortnight garnered 3 pages of excitable comments, but all of this Brexit 'bad' news barely raises an eyebrow. Must be the heat Is Brexit behind the UK's inflation shock? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-65962027 "Meanwhile, the end of free movement means 330,000 fewer workers in the UK, according to one estimate from economists at the Centre for European Reform. That is 1% of the workforce, but it is hitting some sectors harder than others - transport, hospitality and retail are all seeing more acute staff shortages. Such employers tend to have to offer larger pay rises to attract and keep staff. While that is good news for those in work, who might have scored a bigger pay rise than they would have done otherwise, those costs are often passed on to customers."

Getting job seekers to do this work has been tried several times, once even giving the farmers the "workers" for free. Each time it failed with either the recruited staff refusing to do the job or the farmers deciding the speed and quality of the work done was not good enough. It is not surprising really, as the people doing this need to be physically fit hard workers prepared to work anti social hours and follow the work around. The obvious question is why would people like this be signing on at a job centre. I did explain all this before to kzb but he seems to have the memory of a goldfish.

Social Justice League Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 We have a corrupt system that needs people on the dole but then vilifies them for it. All about control and making people feel desperate. Human beings are actually disgusting animals, when you get right down to the bottom line. A nuclear war is needed to clear the decks imo.

If the current WW3 moves from financial (and I hope it doesn’t) to actual then some will still blame numerous culprits as identified by MSM. It’s a big world out there, bigger than the Brexit side issue….won’t matter which puppets we have in power in the UK our path is already laid out. Countries that have and utilise their natural resources and/or produce stuff will strengthen. Those without natural resources and consume stuff are on borrowed money and borrowed time. So not to worry….a few globalists (East and West) are looking to sort it all out for us, directly or by proxy….I hope they fail otherwise 🚀🚀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
