And double the 0.3% in the Euro area.

You just don't get it do you, (or maybe in denial)

Am I?
They're quite good.

 

[its yourself]

And double the 0.3% in the Euro area.

The Euro area wasn't in recession.
The UK is still stagnant over the last two years
You have helpfully admitted you don't understand economic growth though and I'm grateful for that.
I'll have to explain the basics again.

Except that the euro zone was in a "technical" recession.

Zero growth.
Not decline like the UK.
The UK is starting from a lower base.
I'm amazed that we have to do this yet again.
Brexiters seem to suffer from the Kennedy brain worm problem.

Yes exactly as I said.
Well done.
Look at the graph.

The UK economy is still smaller than when Sunak took over.

It's a smidge disingenuous to use a pre brexit figure I think.
Uk still trails post brexit.

 

[its yourself]

As Brits are finding out brexit means brexit.
I wonder how many of them in that
Málaga queue voted to stand there for several hours.

The supremacy of EU laws over members elected government laws is indisputable. That figure has just surpassed 100,000 pieces of legislation that members have to comply with whether their electorate want it or not. What self respecting country would accept that?

So the UKs biggest export area is the EU again?
Or not?

It's a scary old figure but the UK helped write those laws and it wouldn't have passed without our approval. As we've seen post-Brexit, those laws and regulations have remained in place and don't look like they're going any time soon, so clearly UK government must be pretty happy about ithem.

Oh, apart from allowing uncapped Bankers bonuses. They got right onto getting rid of that rule.

The UK?

What a stupid comment. You don’t understand

But we have no choice other than to accept them, even if against what our
people want. The reduction of individual country veto powers since we left would make the situation worse.

Thinking back to a pre-Brexit world it was commonly understood that the UK had sufficient allies in Central and Eastern Europe that we pulled significant influence in the qualified majority voting. Look: the evidence is in front of us for us all to see. Virtually nothing has been repealed since leaving, therefore no law or regulation was contrary to British interests (as seen by UK gov - not necessarily by 'the people')

The UK has to implement every dot and comma.
So it can sell into NI.
As has been shown multiple times now.
Vassal state.

Yes, but the decision is ours, not another authority on whom we have little influence . That what they decide may coincide with what we want is not good enough. We are still in transition and have suffered a disappointingly poor government over that period. Before anybody starts on about how long does it take, remember when we joined there was no immediate benefit at all. We had to be bailed out by the IMF 3 years after joining.

Look: the evidence is in front of us for us all to see.

Yes, that we have a firmly pro-EU political establishment who have been dragging their heels and doing everything possible to thwart a meaningful UK/EU separation since the referendum.

That's why so little has been repealed.

To suggest that every rule and regulation right across the UK is only there because it brings benefit is pretty ludicrous actually!
