What is that "mate" of mine Sadiq Khan trying to achieve ?

 

You lost you demented little cretin, get over it and concentrate on your job you terrorist sympathiser.

I was surprised to see Neil falling for it as he used to be a decent Journalist but he has gone the way of many others after the dollar.

Falling for what? He’s not only decent, he’s the best. IMO. Totally impartial. 
Where is this debunking evidence?

When he interviews he’s great at playing devil’s advocate  

But he ain’t impartial by any stretch of the imagination. 

Has it been debunked or are people just telling porkies?

Thought as much 

Sorry for spending every waking hour on this forum.

Neil is a great at interviewing politicians but impartial he is not.

If the EU is “struggling”, I fail to see how we benefit from that.

Our largest trading partner doing less trading.

We need everyone to succeed. It’s the only way we can.

Sure, it gives a warm feeling in the belly as you slurp down a €2 Fosters and you can snort derisively at the swarthy waiter.

But for the grown ups, it’s not great.

 

And a French bank telling folk to make money on the FTSE - how quickly will that bring the cost of living down? Looking forward to that happening 😊

Is this that the best you can offer on the debunking… 12 hours and you offer that.

Nobody wants the EU to struggle, you seem to think that all brexiteers want to see them struggle, most of us have stocks invested in EU based businesses and some folk have property and therefore would prefer a healthy booming economy in the EU zone,  you seem to think that brexiteers wear UJ shorts and all head to Benidorm, think your the one who’s slurped to many fosters over in Benidorm and it’s addled your brain.

I’ve driven through benidorm once. That was plenty. I won’t be back.

So are you saying nobody ever posts about the EU economy on here, especially when there’s a negative angle? Followed usually by comments like “ thank fuck we got out”?

If a booming EU economy is preferred, then maybe us leaving has caused instability that you could say isn’t great.

It’s good news, one of the reasons I stated for leaving EU was to achieve a better balanced economy and more manufacturing whether Brexit has helped I dont know but my gut feeling was it would. Anyhow the usuals be searching google to debunk this news as we speak. 

Edited September 11, 20232 yr by Mounts Kipper

We did the exact same thing in 2020.

I will say here that I work in manufacturing, so see all sorts of data on a daily basis.

I could go negative and say that we've leapfrogged France because they're performing worse than us.

I could go positive and say we're performing better.

(For certain, the USA isn't included in these reports for some reason, but would obviously nudge us down a place if they were)

One of the remainer arguments was the "reduction" of the London stick exchange as folk moved investments elsewhere.

A negative impact on our economy.

Now someone suggests invest here and it apparently doesn't count!

Bizarre. 

Not that the service economy is the be all and end all of course, we do need more manufacturing. 

Like cars for example...

Not easy to find a copy of the MakeUK report.

But they're like that, they pester us to become a member most months. No-one in our sector is a member, so dunno how they get hold of our manufacturing numbers.

But it's a funny old world.

Here’s an extended version. Interesting read for a Monday morning. Something for everyone.

I’ve been to Italy (north, they do nothing but steal purses and complain in the south) and their manufacturing sector should be our next target to emulate.

Our factories are a long way behind theirs in terms of automation and output. In fact, uk factories buy a large number of their machines from Italy.

Whilst it’s good news that we’re outperforming France, that’s the least we should be doing.

The Italians do benefit from an enormous amount of EU subsidies for their factories.

Any investment we need will now have to come from our government and (for the main part) overseas.

Hard slog ahead, but Italy has to be the target, not just bouncing around with the frogs.

The report does show that the 7th spot is achievable.
