Still better that than Greece whose mates Germany and France took him to the bar then pinned him down and beat the shi7e out of him - relentlessly - all in the name of the bar's rules.

And the name of the greater good.

So Brexit is like kicking the feet away from someone who is just staggering to their feet after the last beating?

And then presenting him with his bar bill?

we have lasted years without serious inflation and had wage stagnation before Brexit was even considered.

It seems our chickens are coming home to roost & brexit effects are only one of them.

Maybe you are correct in 3 years we will all be pimping ourselves to the lowest bidder in mainland europe

Isn't that what May & Davis are doing for the next year?

And unless they are very successful, we contractors will not have an option of easily pimping ourselves out to any bidder in mainland Europe.

Well, the counterfactual is always difficult to demonstrate, but the impact on sterling and thence inflation is clear. The impact on investment decisions will take more time to play out. Other factors are of course available.

It's very hard to separate the end of the economic cycle and the impact of brexit.

No - that doesn't help at all as it somehow implies that in the last 12 months the Uk economy has gone to tulip - and it's not
