Hasn't Hymie not seen today's Express where one headline is "Desperate Brussels plots power-grab as bloc could slap EU citizens with shameless tax rise. The EU could force ordinary citizens to pay more into the Brussels bloc amid a financial crisis. Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo suggested that the EU could impose more bloc-wide taxes on citizens, as Brussels struggles for money." because they are running short of funds. Not a word about that from Hymie.
roobaba "Yes Togo, BUT Britain was much further behind other EU countries to start with, so our economy had A LOT more catching up to do." - what a crass thing to say. We may compare figures in GDP tables but growth is always based on the country concerned and the figure clearly show we have grown faster than the others. The relative sizes of our economies is irrelevant and incidentally our econonomy is larger than France and Italy anyway so by your logic they are miles adrift. Why do you always denegrate your own country? Is it because you didn't win in 2016?
//BUT Britain was much further behind other EU countries to start with, so our economy had A LOT more catching up to do.//
From the article that I provided.
//Admittedly the UK figure is flattered by a strong 2022 bounce back from a very weak 2020/21. Conversely, however, recent strong US growth has been powered by an unsustainable fiscal expansion (more on that later), while the ECB was slower than the US and UK in raising interest rates, not that this stopped Germany from massively underperforming. The legion of UK pessimists expects that structural economic weakness will drag the UK back to the foot of this growth league table – not that they imagined we would top it in 2022/23.//
Do keep up. I did say that the link was best accessed by those with the requisite comprehension skills.
