Brexit watch

[Bez]

To be fair, after they factored in the economic upturn caused by a "no deal" the overall figure including tax revenue losses and the fall in house prices, rise in inflation and contraction of GDP was £30billion a year net loss....

So the OBR now calculates that a no deal Brexit will create a £39 billion economic bit and would cause a U.K. recession (this is not the pessimistic version).

Crazy crazy crazy, and Boris is waving around a kipper and again telling blatant lies.

We are selling our Country down the river.

Based on IMF forecasts - a completely dicredited organisation, when it comes to economic predictions.

This weeks Panorama is a must watch on the Iplayer..... David Davis is quite unbelievably useless. The EU were just so well prepared and professional compared with the revealing insights we get of the UK gov.

So the Government is now about to spend £2.1 Billion on preparing for a No deal Brexit that Boris recently advised was "a million to one". Madness i tell you. Could have just used this money from the magic money tree on healthcare/education etc.

The 'panty-wetters' are getting predictably annoyed about this ( ). I wouldn't fret too much about the money, I believe it may be coming from the pile they are currently shredding in the Department for Overseas Development.

- The Leave campaign said none of this stuff would ever happen. Imagine being slave-minded enough to still be sucking up the lies over 3 years later . Beyond comprehension

The Remain campaign told us we should have experienced an immediate and profound economic shock 3 years ago. Imagine being slave-minded enough to still be sucking up to their lies 3 years later - Beyond comprehension

Check the exchange rate, 2nd worst performing in the world for 2019. Really there are no good figures published anywhere for a no deal Brexit. I'm not saying that as a remainer but as a fact.

My new British Passport arrived in the post yesterday. Very sad to see that "European Union" has been removed.

Angry and sad to be honest

One assumes if their forecast was all nice and rosey then you would be using them to say things would be all nice and rosey...
