    Honestly sas, you really are the biggest lily-livered surrender-monkey around. And given the calibre of hare-brained alarmist chuckleheads that comprise the remain camp round here, that is some accolade.

    I'm doing well. My EU business in selling tin foil hats on the Algarve has seen double-digit year-on-year growth. My analyst on the ground hasn't got to the reason behind it but I have my suspicions.

    That's why U.K. GDP is growing faster than the EU. It's a debt fuelled spending splurge made worse by the QE that was switched on immediately after the Brexit vote.
    Reminds me of the Thatcher years when credit got out of control twice, each time causing a recession-

    More verbal diarrhoea from the master.
    DO explain why you think Trumps policies of borrowing to spend on his voters will make the US economy better in the long run?

    Nice move. You've backed both outcomes.

    Sadly that is all bollocks and you know why, because experts from the IMF said it and as every self respecting Brexiter knows, experts are not to be trusted

    A new system of EU-imposed taxes on the way. Good luck with that.

    Luxembourg is of course excluded as are any that bought Juncker Bonds...

    No, retard, it's not 2% higher than any other developed country, due to devaluation it's 25% LOWER, because GDP for comparison purposes is measured in USD or EUR, $1.60 (rate that would have been in event of No vote) to 1.20, and it will fall 20% more in the coming years.

    Next referendum will have 2 questions:

    1) Do you want to join EU? Answers: YES/YES
    2) Do you want to remove right to vote from Brexit cretins who got this country into deep tulip? YES/YES PLEASE!

    Lost 25% of what? If you mean currency devaluation then firstly, it's not 25% and secondly, most major nations would love to devalue their currency. Japan has been trying for years.

    And gdp at 2% is higher than any other developed country in 2016.

    Do you read the news? Have you seen that EU members are starting to accept the UK holds the cards in negotiations. Do you accept that Trump is much less pro-European than Barmy was? Everyone else does.

    You must have lost a lot to be this upset. The EU is flecked.

    Here's some easy reading for you.

    Mind you they seem to have dumbed it down since I read it aged 4. Chicken Licken appears to escape rather than being eaten.
