"Could almost double"

I think it is going to be great with a free trade deal with the USA.

[sasguru]

Yes, I will thanks.

Also Germany may be making a surplus but it's economy isn't growing and it still has significant debt. But thanks to the Irish, Spanish, Italians and Greeks being in the Euro they can take this monetary pain for the mother land.

Greece is growing at twice the Uk rate, at roughly 3%.
An interesting experiment has been conducted.
For the first time ever in history the Latin economies have had to deal with a mega-downturn while having a strong currency they couldn't devalue.
Now they've come through that, it will be interesting to see what happens.

On the other hand the UK had a massive forced devaluation in 2016 and still can't post its average post-war 2% growth rate

I think calling it "free" is kind of dishonest.
There'll be nothing free about it.
It will involve the UK lubing up and bending over.

C'mon, Irelands GDP jumped by 25% the other year. That's completely normal.

Once this Brexit stuff is over Larry Grayson Jnr is going to get told that Ireland's tax laws are no longer in line with what the EU wants.

Someone is on the Spesh this evening There will be nothing 'free' about a trade deal with the US. We'll be a minnow and will be well and truly screwed by Trump and his team.

[sasguru]

... this evening

That's where you went wrong.

I think you all know we are leaving this time.

And all your little tiny cries won't stop it this time.
