Amazing, truly remarkable ignorance, arrogance and insensitivity all in one sentence. You really are a piece of work.

Only a complete fool wouldn’t realise that what was meant was GDP growth rate.
I wasn’t aware you needed things spoon fed to you. Oh well.
Let me make it 100% clear then. The RATE of GDP growth in Germany has halved in the first quarter.

Ah, but the problem is that the self-appointed leaders of the NSC Brexit intellectuals' society have spent the past two years trading semantics on here, picking up and shaking typos and opaque comments about Eurozones and recessions with all the pompous joy of a QC nailing the murderer in court no 1. Generally, they are allowed to get away with their own slips of the tongue, even when one of them announced the other day that the EU is running a deficit with the UK. But occasionally, when the sun is shining...

There’s a difference between stating something (and making an assumption that people would understand) and making lies (as per the recession from the Clamp).
With respect, you do yourself you make yourself look as bad as them if you really think the 2 are comparable.
There’s no point with this thread really. No one has changed their mind (contrary to what nicko31 has claimed he is experiencing in his ‘life’). You get the usual people on both sides making the same statements, and the remainers trying to be sanctimonious as though they occupy the intellectual/moral high ground.
I only stop by every few days as there is no reasoned debate on here - and people wonder why politics is the way it is!!!!

Oh go on! You clearly didn't MEAN that German GDP had halved but I just can't accept you were intentionally 'making an assumption' that people would understand what you actually meant.
It was a mistake. A simple typo. No problem with that. Led to the briefest flurry of ribbing. I rarely join in such things - hate name-calling and too conscious of my own frailties - but I must say your reaction surprises me.
(PS. I haven't followed the Clamp recession thing but if somewhen said that we were in a recession when we palpably and obviously aren't can it really be characterised as a lie, an attempt to mislead? Just asking.)

The government has announced that it is publishing a White Paper on Brexit in advance of the June summit. There is ABSOLUTELY NO TRUTH in the rumour that it will be sponsored by Andrex.

Perhaps they should print it on Andrex.It would be more user-friendly than Cameron's shiny a**e-wipes.Shame he can't be prosecuted for over-spending the Remain campaign by £9m.

yep, bye bye EUSo, god knows how many posts on, we are all agreed that the EU introduces some good legislation, sometimes.
(Except for [MENTION=22389]bashlsdir[/MENTION] obviously)
Now let's draw a line under that and get back to the question of the day. What is everyone's preferred option, Customs Partnership or Max-fac (the technology one)
And, since the EU have already said no to both, even the one that doesn't exist yet, does it make any difference ?
Today's the day the cabinet report back, so it will all become clear won't it ?

'I ****ed up' was the phrase you were searching for.
People need to realise the difference between not being on jobseekers and being employed. Over a long enough time line as sanctions and forced employment kick in, the number will fall. It's Tory rhetoric and as usual the Leavers suck it up, just as they sucked up Leave lies.
I see that GDP halved in Germany in Q1 2018. Must be Brexit.
Of course, it wouldn't happen in Germany
Maybe it’s the weather, or whatever ridiculous excuse the U.K. posted for their dismal downward figures.

Ha. You really have become the laughing stock of NSC. I'd almost admire if you made stuff up but you just plain get things wrong. Oh dear. Dear oh dear.
And afore ye trot out your fallback "You said we are in a recession" line, I never did say that. I said we are heading for one. We are. The signs are there. Some sector are already heavily in recession. Building trade for example.
Please keep posting your material. It's genius, as is the support you get from NSC's finest Far Right arsehat PPF/Das Reich
