Ah the British tabloids. Coming from a pro-Brexit tabloid, they are not going to tell you that the outcome is perhaps not so good. Not to mention that the report in question was compiled BEFORE the referendum... The resulting uncertainty has made it much less relevant now.Britain BOOMS after EU vote: Ignore the doom-mongers…it’s good news all round

This is not surprising at all, because few people understand how the EU functions and what it actually does (and does not). It's not just the EU, few people understand how their national institutions, government, justice, parliament work. Few people know the faces of their elected politicians.Roger Vickerman, professor of European economics at Kent University, said that any loss of ERDF funds would hit hardest in areas of the country like Cornwall and the north of England that voted heavily to leave the EU.
"The most significance is on areas that voted most strongly for Brexit – one of the more delicious bits of irony," he said.
WOW... another Progressive Liberal who won't accept that the majority voted to leave. Don't you have any respect for the democratic vote? If the vote was rigged or voter fraud is/was detected, then I could understand people bitching and complaining, but nothing of the sort happened. The Brexiters won it fair and square."no one — literally, no one — is making a bullish case for the post-Brexit economy."
I read this line over breakfast and thought... well, some exiters on NamePros are making a bullish case.
Statistics show Brexit is causing a recession in the UK

Then I read this: Racism unleashed: 'Explosion of hate' follows Brexit vote ... and thought:
Some Folks Need Therapy. Alien Therapy.
If human immigration drove a "United Kingdom" out of the European Union,
Real Aliens may drive exiters back into the caves.
Where is he saying he isnt accepting the Brexit vote? He is simply stating that there have been indeed consequences to the british economy since the brexit vote, even though leave voters dont wanna accept it.WOW... another Progressive Liberal who won't accept that the majority voted to leave.

Whatever happened to the famous British fair play? Besides, I think it's too early to find out what the consequences of the Brexit will be.... which BTW, hasn't officially happened yet. That will only happen when they trigger Article 50, which I have a sneaking suspicion will not happen

What you said makes absolutely no sense at all. Please translate it into NORMAL English.The Brexit vote was a conservative construct, put up by a conservative Prime Minister to appease conservative members. It was not Democratic in the usual ballot petition sense. So millions thought it was a conservative party referendum that would determine if the issue would be taken up. Which helps to explain why over 4 million Brits petitioned for their votes to be counted when they realized "what just happened". So Brexit was democratic with a small, conservative, d.
Be that as it May, Brexit is a political illusion, there is no sustainable exit strategy from globalism.
The UK consumes 280% more global resources than it produces. The conservative argument that migrants should go back and develop their own country ignores the fact that it would take the resources of 2.4 Earths to do so. As it is now, developed countries consume more resources that the planet produces.
So be honest, conservatives believe in globalization, but just of the world's natural resources --to support lifestyles were some 40% of those resources are wasted by a form of crass consumerism that loves to sit back, get fat, and watch people in resource stripped countries and communities fight over the remaining crumbs with comments like your usual "look at those animals" stealing and killing each other.
