Because the Bank of England acted to ensure that didn't happen. As the pound plunged they printed a few billion quid to shore up the economy. They literally ensured their own prediction didn't come true, and then dolts criticise them for the prediction not coming true. I wonder at times if people actually have their eyes open.

We joined on a free trade deal - not a mad polictical union that is about to set up its own army and become a federal Europe - imo the free trade deal which is expensive at £16 billion with rebate they tell us how to spend 7 billion plus the CAC in which the French thrive upon and is detrimental to our Farming, and fisheries - remain fanatics too young to remember we survived without the EU quite comfortably before joining......

Stop making stuff up to suit your narrative, any actions they took had no bearing, they admitted they'd got it wrong, none of this it didn't happen because we did this and that what you are now claiming, maybe you should apply for a job doing their PR.

I often try to empathise with the Brexiters on here, but to begin a sentence with this:

is a truly impressive lack of self-awareness.

Perhaps the surest sign of just how unserious the notion of Brexit has always been is that the people who fancy themselves to be the responsible Brexit types, the ones with the Big, Bold Ideas and Swashbuckling Vision - @Old Blue 2 et al - have never once stepped in to dissociate themselves from word-slurry like this, and to set the record straight.

Can you please define 'Project Fear' ; as opposed to factual information which shows the direct effects of leaving the EU.

I wish you wouldn't do it to yourself Joe, but Britain has had the 4th lowest economic growth in the EU - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_European_Union_member_states_by_GDP_growth - ahead of only Belgium, Italy and Greece.

Sounds like blind hope to me. I hope you are right but way too many things are stacked against us for it to be so. The EU have 27 other countries to absorb the blow. A little push with their economies and they will almost negate that deficit. 39 billion will help soften the blow and even if we leave with a no deal. An amount will still have to be handed over as we committed to all the EU's spending policies. So it is payable.

Wishful thinking does not and should not take the place of sound thinking based on the facts. You see the start of businesses moving to cover their arses and that had a microcosm of what is to come, our banking industry will be up and leaving. Can you imagine a no deal brexit and then a Corbyn government, they will all run away. We will be in a vicious cycle of a downward economy.

Let's be clear we'd be better off staying in the EU than accept this shambles of a deal the Tories are trying to blackmail the country into accepting, without doubt that is the case.

But the people voted to leave, and if that is the best deal May could get then we should leave with no deal, during these negotiations we have vastly undersold our hand, I'm actually embarrassed at the level of shafting by the EU that has been allowed to happen, not a backbone amongst them in that Tory cabinet.

The EU's number one priority is to keep us in the EU, it is best for them that we do so, so they can govern us, why do they fear us leaving and being able to make our own laws and trade with who we want when we want?, because they know if we leave they still have to make sure that trade is as frictionless as possible, all the EU are concerned with is their interests, and that means good trade relations with us.

I think The only major economist who backs a no deal Brexit has some interesting things to say about manufacturing and agriculture in that scenario.

It's a sad thread when it turns Blues on Blues being serious now I voted Out - but I cannot see Brexit happening in any form - no deal will never happen - a deal with the EU will never happen atm -
most arguments on here are the same - even going back before the vote - do I think the UK could do without the EU = yes, but the elected MPs 70+ % think otherwise......
