Yeah, and celebrate the British decency shown over a footballer kicking his pet cat. Unlike those monsters in his home country. Reason indeed.

manxman1980 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Surely, as a Brexiteer, he should be well aware of the pesky EU legislation that needs to be removed? Or was it all a ploy to get out of the EU before the tax rules for the wealthy changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The emperor has no clothes on. Problem is the emperor is the 52% who were conned by this shower of shite. A good opportunity for the voice of reason to write to him and request that the eu law allowing donkeys to be thrown off castles be abolished in the uk. And here’s another thing. Why are so many of the Brits featured in the TV programme “Bargain loving Brits in the Sun” feel the need to establish dog, cat, donkey (you name it) sanctuaries in these foreign climes and devoting their time to fund raising?

Not as many since brexit restricted the Brits’ freedom of movement. All those donkey sanctuaries are closing now. Brexiters must hate donkeys.

And...just bc he says it, doesn't make it true. Fake news, if ever there was any. Who told him that, BoJo? And by what metric? I heard the same claim about Canada the other day. It depends what metrics you are using...unemployment, GDP growth, etc. And yes...the baseline effect matters. Business/finanancial news is notoriously full of spin to motivate equity markets.

opusManx Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/feb/11/jacob-rees-mogg-brexit-opportunities-britain-economy "Ignore the talk of the greatest growth since the second world war: that’s just a function of the economy having collapsed so badly in 2020. Note instead the Bank of England’s forecast of 1.25% growth in 2023, falling to just 1% in 2024. David Smith, economics editor of the Sunday Times and no remoaner fanatic, puts that down partly to Covid but partly to the “adverse fiscal consequences of leaving the EU”, which left the country “with a budget hole that has had to be filled with higher taxes. We now have a high-tax economy strangled by red tape and hampered by trade restrictions.” Edited February 12, 2022 by opusManx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
