The U.K.'s Economic Outlook Is Getting Rosier

you're thinking too short term. Over 10 years it'll be fine.

Anyway. I'm not into BTL. I'd rather have a nicer pad and enjoy the investment without the hassle of scratters.

Does it matter how people voted?

And people are really bored of this Brexit nonsense. Especially on CUK.

Some of us are still really enjoying it.

Yeh - things looked good under Gordon Brown's chancellorship.

Then all of sudden they didn't.

For the whole of this millennium, this country has been living off unsustainable debt of various kinds. All we're seeing is people piling up card/unsecured loans and spend-spend-spending. Interest rates will boost the pound until the merde hits the fan as mortgage rates rise.

When will the next crash be? Who knows?

Google review for Centre for Economics and Business Research...

You would be better off putting options into a hat and picking one blindfold in my honest opinion. I say these consultants are to forecasts what a pin is to a donkey.

When will the next crash be? Who knows?

I'd say 2025. We need a recovery first before we can crash otherwise it would be 2019.

And despite Brexit will screw us over it won't be a crash, it will be slow and painful like toothache.

If anyone on CUK does anything exciting, like swap sides or has an original thought, just let me know.

I've completely swapped sides - I'm all for a hard Brexit. I'm serious - it'll be good for people like me.

Well that needs sorting. I'm off to join Vince Cable and co.
