Just imagine what position we'd be in if we weren't brexiting!
Brexiters: 4th
Bremainers: 2nd
So... doesn't really mean much in Brexit terms. Nice to see that the country apparently is doing pretty well though, despite GB9 and PG dragging the economy down with their stupidity.

Does that include Scotland?Originally posted by scooterscot View Post"We were getting forecasts of continued growth not long before the Crash of 2008. Therefore predictions like this come with the usual health warnings.
Britain's booms are heavily dependent on consumer spending. If that falters, so does growth and the economy. Since we just love to use the plastic, there is a limit. The business cycle suggests a downturn may be due in the next year or so."
