Let's hope responsible broadcasters, like the BBC, cease to use their services then.

And believe everything UKIP says?

Nowhere in that does the IMF admit "they fabricated Brexit doom and gloom". For one thing Brexit is still years away, if it happens at all.

The IMF is rather embarrassing. And usually wrong.

2016-07-20 IMF Called "Clowns" After Admitting They Fabricated Brexit Doom And Gloom

"The IMF has serious credibility problems. It has been seriously wrong for years. I hope that one of the things that the new government does is push to have some credible people running this institution... rather than the clowns currently running it," exclaimed UKIP MP Douglas Carswell, pointing out Lagarde's legion of fools flip-flop that the British economy will grow faster than Germany and France in the next two years - only weeks after its doom-laden warnings about Brexit.

As The Daily Mail reports, after saying that leaving the European Union could trigger a UK recession, the International Monetary Fund now expects the British economy to grow by 1.7 per cent this year and 1.3 per cent next year.

That is weaker than the 1.9 and 2.2 per cent growth forecasts before the referendum, but the UK is still set to be the second-fastest growing economy in the Group of Seven industrialised nations this year – behind the United States – and third-fastest next year, behind the US and Canada.

Of course, this is not the first time The IMF has unleashed comedic genius on the world...
