I don’t think the article makes that assertion. It simply says that the economy has recovered past pre pandemic levels but that Truss fucked it up badly. If anything it is merely stating that th economy is resilient. Not that it is fine and we’re still pretty low down in the G7 figures perhaps lower than we ought to be because of Truss.
its the word wonderful that stood out. Brexit is a disaster, truss was a disaster and the last few years have been pretty miserable. These right wing idiots are deluded if they think brexit has been justified. It may well be that some city spreadsheets are looking better, but that isnt any use to anyone.
I would imagine the argument against what you’re saying is that if Brexit was a disaster then the economy would be in free fall rapidly without signs of stopping and we’d be in a multi year recession by now. But that hasn’t happened. In fact it’s slightly up. Small numbers but up. Germany however is in recession. Who’d have thought that?
So maybe disaster is a bit hyperbolic too? If we want to take the pressure out of debate and all?
oh the economy is fine now? is it fuck

It’s less fucked.
Germany is the worst performing G7 now.
