Can you imagine the hue and cry we’d have heard from the airlines and holidaymakers if we had closed everything down before it was obvious to even the thickest in society just how bad things were getting last year?

Early last summer, I was questioned by a friend worried by the ‘good figure’ of 20,000 deaths; I said “Add a zero”.

Isn’t hindsight perfect!

Yer, sorry about the 'Fake News'. Had paged over from a C-19 conversation that was making my blood boil. Good to see someone's awake.

But Johnson won't like it. He does not want peace/ co-operation. He needs to keep the EU haters and racists (devotees of the SUN, DT, DE, etc) engaged and fuming in order to keep himself in the job and cultivate his ego glory.

Not likely, they’ve been needlessly difficult and the troublemakers throughout negotiations. Haven’t they?

52 % voted to be worse off

The impact of Brexit on the UK economy will be worse in the long run compared to the coronavirus pandemic, the chairman of the Office for Budget Responsibility has said.

Richard Hughes said leaving the EU will reduce the UK's potential GDP by about 4% in the long term.

He said forecasts showed the pandemic would reduce GDP "by a further 2%".

"In the long term it is the case that Brexit has a bigger impact than the pandemic", he told the BBC.

His comments come after the OBR said the cost of living could rise at its fastest rate for 30 years, with suggestions inflation could hit almost 5%.

Speaking after Wednesday's Budget, Mr Hughes said recent data showed the impact of Brexit was "broadly consistent" with the OBR's assumption that the leaving the EU would "reduce our long run GDP by around 4%".

This can't be right we were promised prosperity and sunlit uplands not a shrinking economy and seas full of sh*t.

Hey-ho, it's going to get worse ..........

"The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) had assumed leaving the EU would “reduce our long run gross domestic product by around 4 per cent”, adding: “We think that the effect of the pandemic will reduce that (GDP) output by a further 2 per cent,” its chief Richard Hughes said.

OBR chief Richard Hughes

Hughes’ comments to the BBC came only hours after the OBR responded to Rishi Sunak’s latest Budget by saying it expected inflation to reach 4.4 per cent while warning it could hit “the highest rate seen in the UK for three decades”.
