I'm not disagreeing with any of that report. That sort of thing is why I nearly voted leave. So I agree with them in that respect. Sort of blows your premise out of the water. In fact, I'm pretty sure that's why Jamie Martin did, although I'm happy to be corrected.

We still have decent job growth, investor confidence and consumer confidence, problem is that this is being funded by startling levels of state debt that has been built up by both Labour and Conservatives. It seems you didn't get the memo. Attachment: IMG_20160901_112631.jpg (80.89Kb)

What about Deloitte who constructed the 'leaked memo' feeding anti Brexit propaganda to the Times? How many millions have they trousered from the EU? The pro EU Times happy to publish EU propaganda as fact which the BBC follow up on with glee. More examples of corporate cronyism. Edited by Penge Eagle (25 Nov 2016 8.17am)
