          Your first isn't a fact then; again you're making a false equivalence and extrapolating what fits your narrative. Estimates are speculation.

            Fact is we have the slowest growth in the first Quarter compared to any in the G7. Why do you think that Is?

              Because pseudo-economist contractors are spending their time on forums instead of delivering value for the end client?

                I doubt we're that important.

                This Bremoaner rag claims its due to inflation:

                UK growth slows by more than thought in first quarter as inflation bites

                here's a nice comparison
                It's official: The UK has fallen to the bottom of the G7 for GDP growth | City A.M.

                    I just get the feeling that being a Bremoaner is a bit like the wife being on the rag for the next few years. Groan.

                    You know what they say about assumptions!

                      2. Sharp rise in inflation
                      3. 1st quarterly fall in house prices since 2009.

                      All this in a period when the economic cycle world-wide is on the up.

                      All these facts are easily googleable.
                      And we've never had dips in the economy before, no ?

                      Why is this a result of the Brexit vote ?
