That must rank pretty high in the OECD rankings.
This probably reflects our recent success in exporting traitors, saboteurs and enemies of the people, but our supply is now dwindling.
I'm sure the downturn won't be long coming. Stick in there.Comment

The predictions were never bad for EEA membership which is exactly what the transition deal is.
There will only be a downturn if and when a "Hard Brexit" becomes clear.
It's complete nonsense to suggest that the predictions were wrong having bottled out and deciding to remain within the EU for the forseeable future.I'm alright JackComment

All this wishy-washy stuff (EEA, EFTA etc etc) isn't Brexit.
Personally I think Brexiters should get their wish and we should walk away nowHard Brexit now!

No sign of that
It's abundantly clear that had David Cameron popped off to the EU and handed in article 50 as he said he would, there would have been economic armageddon, which is precisely why he didn't do it. The economic armaggedon has been kicked down the road prevented by waiting 9 months and sending letters to companies promising to "not really" leave the EU for many years.
