And, here's the whole article. It's not exactly party time just yet, by a long, long way.,,

It's another article, rather than the whole one.

The naysayers on here predicted doom from the get go, and have subsequently changed the metric each time their chosen one failed to collapse, and they're now shifting the date of the apocalypse like an end of the world cult.

They seem to lay a lot of store on the people that created the earlier collapse, and have subsequently had to regularly alter their projections upwards.

That's not to say that there won't be a downturn, but brexit would be one component, and it won't be isolated to the UK. We're better off without the anchor of the failing EU holding us back.

It's exactly the same subject. Just that your bit conveniently missed off the bits about continued uncertainty and pessimism amongst the majority of CFOs

The slowdown has started and will continue into 2017.

I 'missed' a few bits to keep it shorter, if that's the convenience you refer to. You choose to cling to some future Armageddon, that is liable to be global, rather than brexit generated.

The key is to play with the cards dealt, and not got bogged down in a mire of negativity.

The economy has had ups and downs without brexit, and will do again. Being fixated on one part risks missing opportunities. As does a reliance on those that failed before.

I'm in the gym.

I'll just repeat that regardless of the global economy, the U.K. Economy has been damaged, and will continue to be damaged by Brexit for the foreseeable future.

You keep repeating that, but as yet, many of those engaged in it don't totally agree. Either way, just repeating it is fairly meaningless, it is what it is and will be what it will be. Non brexit issues caused far bigger dips. They just need dealing with, and we're in a better position to do that without the EU yolk dragging us down with it.

The evidence is there. And you'll see more of it in 2017.

Bad luck pal. I don't plan on viewing anything til the Stan Jrs go back to school. The holidays are for holidaying!

 

[DMD]

The evidence is there. And you'll see more if it in 2017.

And other evidence contradicts your opinion.

Simply trotting out doom and gloom achieves nothing at all. We've had plenty in the past, and will have plenty in the future. It's inherent in the system. Being in the EU is not the answer.

Dull deltmown! The Christmas break must be tough for people like you. Does the ex phone on Christmas Day?

One bit of attention, and the boring **** lapses into fantasy land.

Is that what she said to her partner when she hung up?

 

[armchairblue]

What did you mean by "mixed race issues"? You've been asked several times to explain that.

You've said previously that you prefer to associate with people of your own kind, hence my reference.

Do you often post drunk and make flippant remarks/forget what you posted?

YOU have the issues with yourself,which is why you throw the race card about so
frequently.

Some CFOs being more optimistic than they were a few months ago isn't really evidence of anything.

It's evidence they're more confident for a start.

 

[NSIS]

It's evidence they're more confident for a start.

It also says that 90% say they face economic and financial uncertainty. And that appetite for risk remains diminished.

 

[Star of David Bardsley]

It's evidence they're more confident for a start.

Yes, as much as it's evidence they can fill out a form or were breathing the day they filled it out.

There's a report out today, not that it's news really, that OAP numbers are going to shoot up relative to other age groups. Any ideas how we can fix that one?

 

[DMD]

It also says that 90% say they face economic and financial uncertainty. And that appetite for risk remains diminished.

Of course the future is uncertain. It'd be madness to describe it as anything else. It's why we need to be out ASAP without self serving people trying to hinder things and move on without the additional baggage of the EU. It's going down if it tries to carry on as it has been.

The future is always uncertain, but we can choose to fear it and assume all is bad, choose to welcome the opportunities that come with the uncertainty and try to make sure we're in the best position to take advantage of them.

You seem to be more certain than them of a dire future, so should be able to capitalise on it.
