Snapshot of Eurozone inflation falls to 5.5% in sharp contrast to UK. Economists put reason for divergence down to Brexit and Britain’s energy price guarantee.

It’s impossible to prove where the UK would have been, a 100 year pandemic makes the brexit effect just noise. The synthetic counter factual models are smart but stupid.
You do realise that your 4% forecast is also a could and maybe yeah?
Here are the actual facts on GDP per capita. Maybe you understand pictures more easily than words

So I asked you, how much is Brexit costing per year, and you’ve given me what was spent to prepare for Brexit. Can you see how these are not the same thing?
I am getting a little tired of your constant dishonesty, I’m trying to be charitable with you, but I don’t really see how it’s possible to misunderstand such a simple question if you are as smart as you claim to be.
Well of course because it’s predicated on a model of where we would have been had we not left the EU. It’s extrapolation in that sense, but it’s more than you have isn’t it?
Still not relevant to anything though, because as I said the measure is against where we would have been had we stayed in, not how well we still stack up in some rankings.
It’s clearly relevant to our nearest economic peers…it’s actual data, in the measure that the OBR forecast, and not educated guesses.
I’m tired of your dullness, goodbye
Well it was certainly interesting to engage, I’ll know exactly what to watch out for with you on your future posts.
Have a lovely evening :)
