30th January, 2018.
OK, OK, maybe I didn’t.
Strictly speaking?
It’s not the news ‘saying’ it, either.
It’s the news channel, or a news channel, Buzzfeed, reporting on a leaked government report: showing three models of Britain’s economic growth, post-Brexit.
Growth that slows, in various degrees, depending on the deal we get.
Apart from any bespoke deal we manage to get.
Which obvious. We can’t guess how a bespoke deal will affect the UK … until it’s done.
Right now?
I’m thinking …
Well, lots of things: including the idea that going back to bed is a good idea.
But, frankly?
I voted remain.
I’m no economist, but I had a vague idea we’d be better off as part of a group doing some good ol’ left wing, collective bargaining.
If these models are accurate?
If they turn out to be accurate predictions of our country’s growth outside the Union?
I’m thinking this news reinforces my reasons for voting remain: slow growth means less chances for my nephew, as he grows up.
That’s not something I’m happy with.
