Flunked the irony exam did we?

I wasn't entered for it, presumably to spare me the embarrassment of failure...

That geography O level exam clearly wasn't failed in vain, Scoots...

I live in Bavaria, not Germany,

Usual spooter denial stuff, wait till Bavaria loses the independence vote!


Geography and facts of Bavaria - | Bavaria

Bavaria, home to nearly 13 million inhabitants, is located in the southeast of Germany and is the largest of the 16 federal states of Germany.

Thank you, that did make me laugh.

I does me best...

[woohoo]

If the Eurozone project had been run sensibly from the start (stop sniggering at the back) Greece wouldn't have been let in to start with, but someone screwed up, and we are where we are. Thankfully the Germans are picking up most of the bill for that one, and going forward they're going to need very deep pockets.
And the irony of Scotland holding an independence referendum so they can be ruled by Brussels instead of Westminster is completely lost on you.

Germany does very nicely out of the Eurozone, artificially pegging the nominal Deutshmark low. About the only thing I agree with Trump on is that Germany is a currency manipulator.

The imminent break up of the Eurozone has been predicted frequently by Ambrose Pritchard-Evans over the last 20 years.




Still waiting for Greece to leave. I think however if there is a "real Brexit" Scotland will be holding a second referendum

I feel your pain, I hope your fragile self worth can stand the Eu breaking up.

So Germany's growth forecast sinks to a similar level as the UK's, whereas Germany's economy has grown much more over the past years than that one of the UK.
The overall EU forecast is still better than the forecast for the UK

[woohoo]

wishful thinking, it's now the only hope for Brexit that the EU somehow implodes

German recession wouldn't bring down the Euro area economy

However it isn't going to save the UK. The EU will still be there in 5 years time, the UK probably won't be. It will break up.

...unless of course Brexit doesn't happen i.e. Brino

I never thought West Germany would absorb East Germany. But it did. It can absorb the rest of Europe.

At the second attempt...

[woohoo]

Unlikely, I'm not planning on moving out of the Germany so expect it to chug along as per normal.
