    So the Eurozone will not grow as much as the Eurozone said it would grow.

    And also the Uk will not grow as much because reasons?

      Ah so this is the German press talking up the EU.

      Now why would they do that?

      And actually Italy has the worst predicted growth figures.

        Actually it's a whining Dutch immigrant sharing the German press article.
        credit where it's due, and all that.

          I could have linked to the original article form the EU but that's too complicated for your tiny minds:

            So at this rate the UK will fall out of the G7 within the next 10 years.

            I'm alright Jack

              From the article quoted:

              "Given the ongoing negotiation over the terms of
              the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, projections for
              2019 continue to be based on a purely technical
              assumption of status quo in terms of trading
              relations between the EU27 and the UK."

              So if we remain in the EU our growth is predicted to fall. Based on this evidence we have absolutely nothing to fear from leaving the EU.

                  Economic forecasts eh? Renowned for their accuracy.

                  Still waiting for that recession that was predicted.

                    You only have to look at UK growth since the referendum to see what the future holds.
                    Assuming a BRINO , it's going to be 1.x% rather than the UK post-war average of 2.x%.
                    And that's the real outcome of Brexit, not chaos or destuction, as some are predicting, but rather a slow release of air out of the balloon that is the UK economy.
                    You won't even notice it at first, 5-10 years down the line, you'll see how shabby the country will have become.
                    Hard Brexit now!
