No 10 Parties

[Borin' Baggie]

Someone needs to say it, so I will.

We wouldn't have ended up with Boris as PM at all if too many MPs on all sides hadn't made it their primary aim to frustrate Brexit. The now largely unemployed Uber-Remainer MPs need to own the monster they helped to create as much as I do.

Two responses spring to mind:

1 - when you believe something is so stupid and obviously self-damaging as Brexit, it's extremely difficult to shrug your shoulders and say "Oh well, let's make the best of it".

2 - where the whole of Parliament went wrong was going for the election in December 2019. Boris trying to run a minority government was the best thing for Britain, would have exposed him sooner as the charlatan that he is and would have led (in the end) to a more intelligent approach in negotiating the beneficial Brexit that some people believed was possible, indeed expected. Every single opposition party failed to see what was screamingly obvious to we ordinary folks, that Boris would win by a mile.

The irony of all of this is we have the fastest growing economy in the G7.

Whilst the after work drinks ( I love some people’s definition of party, they must be dull) was stupefying incompetence by Martin Reynolds and the tories there are bigger issues on the horizon that need resolving.

There is little talent in Westminster these days (across all parties). Anyone setting up a new centrist party   Could be onto a winner.

Well that is a horrible misuse of statistics.

Have a look at the OECD growth forecast for the next two years and come back to me.

You're referring to the OECD growth forecast that predicts us to have the second lowest rate of growth (ahead of Japan) in 2023 out of the G7 (joint 4th lowest in the G20, level with Brazil and ahead of Japan, South Africa and Australia) post-recovery?

Also, I would like to point to your attention that the graph I used, from the Financial Times, has it's metrics sourced from the OECD (hence the source being listed as OECD). 

Do you know why our GDP growth rate for 2021 and 2022 is projected to be highest in the G7? Because it fell the furthest in 2020, it needs to gain the most to recover to what it was in Q1 2019. The only sensible measure is time taken to recover to Q1 2019 GDP, the fastest was the US, France is second as per their recently released growth figures for Q4 2021, and the UK is expected to be the second slowest ahead of only Japan.

I refer back to my previous statement, you are misrepresenting statistics. You're not the only one, renown liar who has been sacked from two jobs Boris Johnson has also misrepresented the exact same statistic.
