Okay - I was wrong on Brexit

A hefty sum, but do they get more since leaving the EU ( % terms)?

If you have a better example for an economy that has left the EU please post it here...

How about Sweden's economy joining in 1995:

There is no example of a major economy leaving the EU. Greenland would be a microstate (taking a population view) if it were a sovereign state.

With its heavy economic reliance on Greenland it's hard to transfer any lessons to the UK.

It would be awfully quiet here if only UK resident Remainers commented.

[WTFH]

We are, as yet the Brexit response is to ignore questions and change the topic when challenged.

It would be nice if actually contractors who voted for Brexit were the ones to make the comments, as there's a chance they might be smarter than most of the responses we currently get.

Like a safe space for Brexiteers?

I don't see an immediate economic boom for joining...

Three countries joined in 1995 and all three had flatline growth.

But Greenland leaves and GDP picks up.

Hmm.

Stick the Greenland GDP graph over the UK one and tell me where the massive difference is.

For the time being you'll just have to stick with us lot. What's the saying? No point crying over spilt milk, but you can moan insistently on CUK instead.

Isn't that RoI? Sorry, wrong lot.

Indeed. This forum, as I have observed before, is full of provincials, permies, public sector bods and the un/under employed, who think that what happens in "that London" will not affect them in the least.

It would be nice if no-one commented on Brexit.

ESPECIALLY those who are not in the UK.

The irony being, it probably won't.
