I point the finger of blame far more at the Bank of England than the government on recession, says Nigel Farage....

I blame everyone except me.
Anyway, where would the UK be without a recession ?
There are no homes, inflation is at 100% and now that we have eaten each other we will all die of want.
The only question that remains is, if unemployment is so bad, why can't I get some sod to put up my fence ?

It's COV-ID, so many lost jobs, most working yet now on 20-30% less, seems only train drivers getting more  Tongue in cheek yet so many pubs and food places have closed with no replacements, taxi drivers charging more. On a more serious note who is earning more than before COV-ID, I ask, as we keep being told about wage growth inflation?? |

But once my fence is up I want new guttering.
And a bit of plastering.
So if there is so much unemployment, how come I am spending half my life on the phone trying to hire builders ?

I live in London suburbs and see vans driving around, builders, fencing and gutters so perhaps a regional thing? We needed someone to sort out the drainage and got one in 24 hours and had the problem sorted in about 55 mins and cost £100. |

fack borkie, im no a builder , but if I lived closer , I would stick yer fence up and do your gutter . I draw a line at plastering though . Is our old friend `streetwalker` not close enough to you ? Plenty builders about , they just dont want the little jobs though. |

What's the betting in a couple of months there will be a backtracking, that they miscalculated and it's actually zero or +0.1%.
It's happened a few times.

Don't know anyone can suggest were out of recession after buoyant January sales Especially when it driven by a drop in petrol prices. Let's see what happens when the quarterly figers come in |

But the Bank said it was waiting for further evidence in areas such as wage growth and the number of job vacancies to show that inflation - which measures the Thats why they haven't made a official notice the recession is over . It's not over until. They say so vinny |
