    You can try to avoid the truth as much as you like, but it will always find its way into the light of day.

    From the link you tried so hard to ignore because you don't like the message;


    The Bank of England admitted it saw “no evidence” of a sharp economic slowdown and the pound gained in strength as a result.

    Positive job figures showing unemployment falling and record numbers in work were heralded by new Prime Minister Theresa May.

    Average earnings in the year to May were up 2.3per cent, official figures revealed, and mortgage brokers reported a brisk trade from foreign investors...

    ...The FTSE index of the UK’s top 100 companies soared to an 11 month high, closing above the 6,700 mark for the first time since August.

    The Bank of England, whose governor Mark Carney warned in May that Brexit was likely “to have a negative impact in the short term” reported that no such impact could be detected.

    The Bank’s network of “regional agents” said UK firms were trying to maintain “business as usual” and the Bank said: “As yet, there was no clear evidence of a sharp general slowing in activity.”

    The Express, like The Mail, are trying to put a positive spin on the matter.

    Take the FTSE100 as an example. Multinationals benefitting from a ****ty GBP. That's not actually good news for us. How are Lloyds and Easyjet doing?

    Both papers are designed to appeal to far right simpletons who will lap up and believe anything and everything they're told.

    Read the financial press, Bloomberg, media outlets without a political agenda etc and you will get the facts.

    By the way, how has the pound gained in strength? It's currently 1.18 against the euro and 1.32 against the dollar which is shocking!

    Also "Average earnings in the year to May were up 2.3per cent, official figures revealed, and mortgage brokers reported a brisk trade from foreign investors..."

    Wasn't the referendum in late June?!

    You ignoramous. You have clearly never read Bloomberg's lefty diatribes, but rather slip out from between uninteresting's buttocks once in a while to nod in agreement to anything he spouts, like a sycophantic lap dog :emoticon-0157-sun:

    More memes please darling <hug>

    The figures, from the UK's current account published by the Office for National Statistics, say that, before the application of the rebate, the UK's gross contribution was £19.6bn a year - about £376m a week.

    The UK made a net contribution to the European Union of about £199m a week last year, according to new official figures.

    Just think of what you could do with that money.
    Fund the NHS for starters, spend a bit of the Taffs to keep them quiet, but a few beers, endless things or send it to the EU to waste on utter crap.

    What would you do with the money, remainers?
