Brexit.

[Avondhu star]

British borrowing more, saving less.
http://www.bbc.com/news/business-40454385

last year's growth in spending was driven by debt.
Brits are not getting payrises.
It is time for a new economic system..

Living on the streets by March 19 ... I've got  a few months then

If the thing goes ahead the pain won't be distributed evenly across society. Economic damage usually hits weaker members of society like unskilled workers, single mothers, kids from poor families, old people with no property, the mentally ill etc

You need to secure a decent wine supply. ...

If? surely its set in stone, Brexit means Brexit... out on our ear, skid row, back to the middle ages, internet scrapped, coal mines opened up, people only living till they are in their 50's, single mothers put to work and their kids taken off them, as for property, it will be wooden huts, no hols, and no health care or education

About time. Do you realise how difficult it is to get a good chimney sweep? Some of those under nourished young kids wil be ideal for the job

The UK will reverse course on Brexit once flight cancellations start to hit British holidaymakers, Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary has said, predicting French and German airlines would seek to "screw over" UK carriers and steal their business.
"By September 2018, when your average British voter is sitting down to work out where he's going on holidays in the summer of 2019, the two options he will have will be: drive to Scotland or get a ferry to Ireland," Mr O'Leary told MEPs in Brussels on Tuesday.
"It will be a couple of months before British people understand that they don't all want to go on holidays in Ireland or in Scotland, and I think the British government will be forced to come to its senses."
"We should be optimistic. The British, I believe, will change their minds because it's going to be very bad for them over the next six to eight months," Mr O'Leary said.
He said Brexit will be "one of the great economic suicide notes in history", and predicted Lufthansa and Air France would "see a competitive opportunity" to "screw over" UK-based carriers.
He said Ryanair was already reallocating aircraft from Britain to European regional airports to ensure unfettered access to EU and transatlantic routes under an EU-US open skies deal.
"The UK is going to have to find a way, within the next 12 months, to get back into 'open skies' or to have a bilateral with the EU27, and I think that's an impossibility," Mr O'Leary told a European parliamentary committee on the impact of Brexit on aviation.
"There's no goodwill in Europe towards Britain," he said. "The French and the Germans, whenever they can get the opportunity to stick one to the British, like nothing better."
Mr O'Leary said the Brexit was a "shambles" and the UK government "haven't a bull's notion what they're doing" in the negotiations, recalling a senior Brexit minister telling him that an open skies deal with Pakistan could make up for the loss of access to European airspace.

Those would be the Republican ones?.As in the people who would like to be part of a United Ireland?,

Those ones?,

but you look down your nose at every opportunity at people in the south and like to point out our economic failings ,despite NI resembling a failed state with a budget defect in 2015 8 times that of Greece,so why would you want to part of a United Ireland? and more pertinently why would we want you.

You are getting me confused with someone who wants to be part of country with economic failings.... I'm Irish, I've a healthy lifestyle and happy with life...

You obviously haven't lived in the north, the poverty is madness! Only get internet after 12am as it's cheaper, food parcels a plenty (unlike the south). Free health care, rubbish and they are stopping you from having have fun!! !

Britain has for the first time explicitly acknowledged it has financial obligations to the EU after Brexit, a move that is likely to avert a full-scale clash over the exit bill in talks next week.In a written statement to parliament touching on a "financial settlement", the government recognised on Thursday "that the UK has obligations to the EU . . . that will survive the UK's withdrawal — and that these need to be resolved".The text, released by Joyce Anelay, a Brexit minister, was immediately seen by Brussels as a potentially important development
