OK I'll have another go - did unemployment rise - yes or no ?

Yes unemployment went up slightly, hardly worth running to the hills, although many remainers will love that 0.1%.

Many EU countries the employment is far worse than the UK's. I suppose that is brexits fault.

 

 

Right so we've finally established that unemployment went up for the first time in over 2 years - there that didn't hurt did it ! CG1 Blue you can stand down - your superior has tidied it up for you.

 

I'm sure the 31,000 people that now don't have a job and will be entering one of the most worrying times of their lives, will appreciate your statement that its' hardly worth running to the hills for - selfish to the end eh ?

More worrying is the productivity of UK businesses continues its slide.

We are still waiting for your reasons on why the EU is so great and why we should remain shackled to it.

They have been listed on numerous occasions - or google them. You could start with trade deals and medical research and go on from there (how are the new trade deals coming along, any signed yet ?) ….but be warned you're going to be busy! 

 

So despite my 10th request you still cannot explain why the pound is getting trashed and not flying ? 

 

Can anyone else in the leave camp help him out  (11th request ……)

Wow I may have found my man - Jip99 I have made 11 requests to ascertain why the pound is crashing and not rising in light of the forthcoming brexit dawn.

 

As you have accused others of not answering questions, can you please answer it for me - you're my last hope ….

No problem.

 

 

You are asking the wrong question.

 

You fully understand the reasons for speculation in Sterling that is causing a drop in the exchange rate.

 

Sterling cannot rise, to it's realistic level, until the uncertainty, speculation and scare-mongering has worked it's way out of the system. That will only begin to happen sometime after 31 October.

 

I don't think that you will find any Brexiteer who said that Sterling would 'rise' as a direct, or immediate result, of Brexit.

 

I hope that helps.

‘Sometime after October 31st’.

 

How many rears after?

"rears"

 

Freudian slip ??  ????

 

To answer your question........ IMO  .... the rate will start to recover in the first year.   How long it takes to get to pre-Brexit is a different answer, and that may be "never", or it may be 2/3 years  -  depends on many factors within the global economy, not just the UK.

 

Let me be clear, "never" is one of those potential risks to Brexit that was identified and is worth taking for exiting the EU.  Most Brexiteers would probably say 3-5 years for things to settle down. The key exchange rates are GBP/USD and GBP/EU.......... post-Brexit, the latter is more likely to be affected by what happens in the EU.

I guess you are the glass is half empty type of person. Now unless you have a crystal ball which you seem to be insinuating that you do, what circumstances have these 31,000 people lost their job. I suppose you will say its the B word, as many remainers blame everything on Brexit.

Well hats off for at least giving an opinion.

 

Though your belief the pound will return to pre-Brexit values is fanciful.

 

The UK would need a market and a functioning economy for that.

An excellent analysis of the Telegraph poll and how it was rigged 

 

https://www.theneweuropean.co.uk/top-stories/peter-kellner-on-telegraph-no-deal-brexit-comres-poll-1-6213098

 

Seldom does life so precisely resemble art. Today's Daily Telegraph front page headline proclaims: "Public backs Johnson to shut down parliament for Brexit". Its lead story begins: "Boris Johnson has the support of more than half the public to deliver Brexit by any means, including suspending Parliament, a poll has suggested".

 

In fact, this finding comes straight from the Sir Humphrey Appleby playbook on how to rig a poll. In one episode of Yes Prime Minister, he explains to his sidekick how to show the public want to reintroduce national service.

Nothing biased in that report then......... or other polls.

 

 

Only a fool would take comfort from ANY poll that was produced by the media........... do you take comfort in polls, Tebee ?

Not by stupid xenophobia, the opposite of the EU project, but a lack of respect for the vote would cause troubles that would end up splashing us.

Note that the exit now minority will cause troubles too, but in a new context of competition, they will give us an additional advantage.

Leave now. We will remain bound but to pretend to return you will have to accept the lesson of humility that the next years will give you.

Well we have an accord on the need to get out of your bloc ASAP. Some of our politicians are working towards that. Others are in league with your EU plot to Remain.
Interesting that you think lack of respect for the vote would cause troubles that would splash you. Why didn’t anybody in the EU feel that way when you disrespected other countries votes against the EU?
We won’t be coming back ‘cos it’s very unlikely your EU will still be around for very long.

3 years than pools go up and down between 45-55 and 55-45. Another pool soon probably will give the opposite result.

That's around the time the Unicorns start to hatch. I do hope BoJo gives her the first one (Unicorn) that is for keeping above all this with her usual dignity. She should summon Farage and get him arrested and put in the Tower -with a snarl  "no-one least you Mr Farage makes fun of my dear late mummy, and besides which you and your horrible people are threatening to break up my lovely United Kingdom/ Take him away!"  and then she throws a milkshake over him and cackles.....as a stout Yeoman of the Guard pulls him out of the State Room.

Every vote or opinion poll with a result of leave is rigged and the people involved were stupid and misled.

Every vote or opinion poll with a result stay is honest and intelligent.

 

Entirely sums up liberals/socialists, only they are ever right.

I'm sober and more importantly unbanned - it was a one-finger salute pic along with Farage's racist refugee poster that got me a 3 dayer. But not the lovely Grace Petrie song which I accompanied it with and I dedicate with love to all the Brexiters on here and to Scott who has a hard job to moderate the rivers of nonsense that flow through these parts.
