Perhaps it does, but then economics might not be your strong point. https://www.economist.com/britain/2022/06/09/britains-productivity-problem-is-long-standing-and-getting-worse?utm_medium=cpc.adword.pd&utm_source=google&ppccampaignID=18156330227&ppcadID=&utm_campaign=a.22brand_pmax&utm_content=conversion.direct-response.anonymous&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI4LGwgqyQgQMVUhKDAx0u2wEOEAAYASAAEgJn-vD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds -
Public support for new Brexit referendum revealed
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Putting aside the fact the UK is a nation of mixed cultures and languages and has been for centuries of recorded history, Welsh, Irish, Scotts and their respective languages. The UK has for centuries been home to numerous diasporas, European Jews, and the Huguenots being two example. https://jewishmuseum.org.uk/schools/asset/interns-choice-the-jewish-naturalisation-act-1753/ https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10146427/1/PhD Whole 4.5 (1).pdf https://www.museumoflondon.org.uk/discover/languages-london Always a pleasure to provide a teaching lesson for a ‘teacher’. Please get back to me with a quotation of me stating immigrants to the UK spoke their own language ‘all the time’. If you can’t produce evidence of me making such a claim I’ll accept you made it up. -

Immigrant communities have existed in the UK for centuries and have always spoken their own languages. I was at a BBQ party last week, most of the twenty people attending were speaking Thai. There’s nothing new in any of this. -

There was no ‘dream of creating a multi cultural society’. The UK is a multi cultural society and has been for decades before the EU appeared. -
“I think what my book does is shows that he is somebody who, for whom — he’s buried in details. He’s somebody who is very technocratic, really obsessed with the intricacies of policy. He’s a very activist president in that he micromanages a lot of the dealings in the White House” Feel free to ignore that if it’s at odds with your idea of ‘sleepy Joe’.

Mitch McConnell freezes for second time during press event
