The affects ot COVID and economic performance will vary across countries in any event, some countries industries will be more resilient to the effects of lockdown, in some respect this is why the EU will always fail when faced with a crisis like COVID.

If this gas crisis is the next one for the EU the risks are clear to see…….some countries will need to share surplus with others, and at a time when energy prices are soaring. EU politicians/technocrats can talk about EU solidarity all they like, that doesn’t cut it locally when the shit hits the fan.

By the way I hope they do find a way through it, the U.K. won’t be unaffected, our politicians however now know all too well that they can’t offset the blame for getting it wrong. As it should be.

I'm sure all those who are going to suffer from our economic shitstorm over the next few years, significant parts of which have been exacerbated or caused by Brexit, will be re-assured by that.

Just lucky that yourself and your fellow Brexiteers managed to get us Johnson and Truss/Sunak to manage our way through it

I didn't relaise JRM had actually come up with Brexit opportunities, so we can add Henry Hoovers suction power and signs in the dartford tunnel to the list with the happy fish?

No wonder mock the week was cancelled, current politics have gone beyond parody

Sure, but there are political ups and downs here, and then there’s the EU……..

https://abcnews.go.com/Business/wire...-bank-87115885

“So along with the rate increase, ECB President Christine Lagarde is expected to announce a financial backstop aimed at capping borrowing costs for governments and companies in eurozone countries that are less financially solid than the others.

It’s a hassle unique to the ECB because it oversees 19 countries that are in different financial shape but use one currency, which has plunged to its lowest level against the dollar in 20 years.

“The Fed and the Bank of England don’t have this problem,” said Maria Demertzis, interim director of the Bruegel think tank in Brussels. “The borrowing costs for each country when they issue debt is different, because the underlying outlook is different.”

Great idea wasn’t it……..

Interesting story about an EU member in the Eurozone which the UK was never in.

Maybe, you meant to post this somewhere else

Surely you're not suggesting whataboutism on whataboutism because that would be really desperate

Maybe I'm a little unusual, but if I had done something really stupid, I wouldn't keep returning to the scene of the crime continually shouting 'CAN YOU SEE HOW STUPID I'VE BEEN ?' at everyone on a regular basis
