I get the impression they’ve mistaken the small recoveries shown by the markets since the vote result as a sign that all the gloom-sayers were wrong, without realising they were predicting dire things after we left not if we voted to leave.
Anyway, wonder if the government’s worked out how to not do it yet?
Feels a bit like when I was in school and the teacher would tell us at the start of term that there was some EXAM FROM HELL that we needed to prepare for… but every day would pass and there’d be no mention of the EXAM FROM HELL. And eventually we’d start believing that the EXAM FROM HELL would never actually happen.
There are Brexit Brexits, and there are Unbrexit Brexits. There are Brexit Unbrexits, and there Unbrexit Unbrexits. As I understand it, May is in favour of the third option and Corbyn is behind the second.
The interesting thing is what the Brexiters will do in two years time when they notice that there are still an awful lot of people in the country who don’t look like them.
The Express headline yesterday was crowing that the fact house prices had risen meant Brexit had clearly been a success. Utterly depressing that pricing a generation out of owning their own homes is now considered cause for celebration.
