The editor in the report explains that "These figures are not official but history shows they have been very accurate. That makes them an accurate warning about the impact of Brexit." Try reading the link and watching the report yourself before you dismiss the evidence in front of you.

This report may only show a snapshot of the past few weeks, but that makes it all the more concerning that there has been such a big slump in such a short space of time.

Nigel Farage well before the vote explained that the economy was still in a downward spiral and that the pound, for example, has been in the toilet for the last 12 months. Every politician worth his salt said brexit would initially spook the markets as it has but that it is up to the Government and the BOE to relay fears and come up with a plan, which they are doing.

I am not sure what point you are making by posting the link?

Because some people denied that Brexit would spook the markets, and dismissed all the predictions as 'Project Fear'. The pound has been on a downward trajectory for a while, but it just fell off a cliff!

The report in this link is a warning that a recession could, potentially, be on the horizon. And I don't remember many politicians on the leave side admitting that could happen.

I love the way my innocuous satirical 'We're All Doomed' response to T.S. has been removed yet his response to me stating that I am 'unreasonably old' remains for posterity.

It's because I'm more handsome than you, and I have a larger penis.

I very much doubt both, but your 'face' obviously fits better than mine on here.

Incorrect Kirk, there are more people posting who agree with you "in general" than who agree with me and "my side".

If you FEEL outnumbered, it's only because your troops are weaker . There are "more of you".

..the worry has been for me so far as the economy etc are concerned as that we won't really know any negative impact of Brexit for a long time, many months...these are not things that bring on 'overnight' or first few days or first few week changes that are indicative of anything long term....

Even if (when) the negative impact long term does start to become obvious, those who supported Brexit will still swear you they're blue in the face that it isn't happening. Either that, or they'll brand it yet another "coincidence" that has nothing to do with Brexit and would have happened anyway.
