Post-Brexit doom-mongering could lead to slowdown, warns Wetherspoon boss

[AtW]

"The Brexit-backing chairman of JD Wetherspoon has lashed out at Chancellor George Osborne, the IMF, the Bank of England and a host of other organisations, blaming them for a potential slowdown following the EU referendum vote.

Tim Martin called into question their honesty and economic judgment during the referendum campaign, also singling out the CBI, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and PwC, who he claims were too negative about the impact of a Leave vote.

"In my opinion, the above individuals and organisations are either dishonest or they have a poor understanding of economics, since democracy and prosperity are closely linked and the EU is clearly undemocratic."

Remoaners want to talk a recession up so they can say they were right.

The effect on the global economy due to Brexit is akin to the effect on the global climate due to humans.

It's all smog and mirrors, sunshine.

He sounds like a cretin to me. Panicking now he's being proved wrong and wanting to blame everyone else and everything but his lack of judgement.

He is happy because more people will be drinking his cheap crap booze when the recession hits.

Very few pubs have got as good a selection of decent beer as spoons.

It's the piss stained customers, poor service and the peculiar blended stench of fish, coffee, vinegar and beer that puts me off.

I've only ever been in one and it wasn't too bad until the evening drew on...Apparently every pub has a different carpet: Wetherspoon's Carpets

Cheap, certainly. Crap, certainly not. 'Spoons does a cracking range of cask ales and reasonably priced they are. In fact I had a pint recently that set me back £1.65.
