So you are basing our economic collapse on having the same quarterly growth as the Eurozone and being ahead of Germany? You didnt read the link did you? [ "On 17 March, the OECD published new forecasts for the world economy. It says that there are recent signs of improvement and upgraded its GDP growth forecasts for most countries. The OECD warned though that the outlook remained fragile and uncertain. The OECD forecasts UK GDP to fall by 0.2% in 2023, the lowest figure in the G7" Still looking for the Brexit bonus here folks. So after having the highest growth in the G7 for 2 years we now have a forecast that this year we might have the lowest - and also forecast that from 2025 we would go back to having the highest. Looks to me that we are bumbling along just like any other major economy. At least we are not in a recession like Germany.

Well said.
But Brexit is one of the things preventing recession.
£90bn+ boost in sales.

When was an economic forecast ever right? They are always wrong. They never apologise, because it's never their fault. Then they revise their forecasts. They all have political leanings, the civil servants that come up with these figures, and it shows.

Japs have pledged £18bn UK additional investment. This is what I'm talking about with China. If our PM went over to meet President Xi and spoke kindly to him, we would walk away with similar opportunity. The Far East is a land of golden opportunity. They are all very smart in that region, be they North Koreans, Chinese, Japs, Singaporeans, though I might have to leave out Filipinos. According to the Chinese they are to China what backward Africans are to the Brits. The only sticking point seems to me that we are dictated to by Biden the lunatic.

We don't need an FTA with China we already export £37.6 billion to it. Up from £16.8 billion in 2016. An FTA would allow cheap Chinese tat in without tariffs. That would not be good.
