Most reputable economists reckon we will lose out but that will be the price of sovereignty!!! Also d'you think the 'have nots', who appear to have played a big part in forcing through this Brexit vote, will have alll their aspirations fulfilled 'now that they have their country back' - as many of these people put it!!! I don't think so and instead of pointing the accusing finger at the EU, they should be pointing it more appropriately at the UK govt!! Nuts!!
Just wait til the food and petrol contracts start expiring,the food costs go up in the supermarket, the petrol costs rise, the imported gas, and other fuels we use in our petrol stations rise. Even goods made in the UK will go up in cost, because many raw materials are imported from the EU, or further afield, where transactions are made in dollars. And you can see today how the pound is v the dollar.
More importantly our wages have been stagnant since 2008,so i can see a lot of things going up in price 10/20 per cent as the pound slides.
Then we will see how these 'have nots' react, No wonder boris has run a mile.
