Zero-hour contracts many employed payment in sheltered tents outside the Amazon warehouse. You've never had it so good under the Tories.

That's what happens when you have access to an endless supply of low skilled labour. Open door policy forever!

Back to Victorian times.

And yet they never do. Look at 2008. It seemed to come as a surprise.

See this in the crypto world all the time. When something increases 1000% it's divine intervention. The company is doing something right. It can't go wrong. Everyone is happy. Then a whale comes along and sell's his or her massive stake and crash bang wallop. Now everyone says, my life is ruined! Swines!!

Mark my words, the same will have in the UK housing market when that demand just melts away. Slowly and surely drip drip companies leave as do the people that support them. I'd liquidate my GBP position if I were's yous

Thankfully in my part of the UK house prices aren't anything like that. Oh and I have my house money in cash at present. The current house came (including plenty of DIY) with the wife. Long term, it can only be a good thing for housing costs to return to a sensible level.

Yep, understand leading and lagging indicators having written papers on the Balanced Scorecard and implemented it in companies. You may be clutching at very big straws though to be claiming unemployment rates is a leading indicator for Brexit. Nice try though

UK wage growth those past 10-years is even less than that of Greece. Alarm bells should ring when the country struggles to reduce debt growth let alone pay it down when near 96% of the working population is employed. Country will implode if it rises to 10%.

Sounds like an adjustment to the Barnett formula is needed.
