I honestly think you have one now unless you can persuade me otherwise.

We could do with someone who thinks more of the UK
than he does the EU and WEF though. |

He is probably right with thinking the UKs best interest is a close relationship with the EU,maybe even more so today. You can talk all billybigbollix like johnson and others but in practice it isn't feasible and was shown.

Germany's expected growth rate for 2026 is projected to be between 1.4% and 1.5%. Goldman Sachs forecasts a growth of 1.4%, while the Ifo Institute and other sources predict a growth of 1.5%.
France’s economy is projected to grow by approximately 0.9% in 2026, with quarterly growth moderating to 0.2% in the first half of the year. Annual Growth Outlook (European Commission, 2026). righty ho |

Approximately 3.6 trillion USD
France National Debt France's national debt is a significant concern, with a debt-to-GDP ratio of 115.16% as of 2024. This means that France's total debt is approximately 3.6 trillion USD, which is a substantial portion of the country's economy. €2.69 trillion Germany National Debt Germany's national debt has seen fluctuations over the years, with the most recent increase in 2024. The general government debt rose by €57 billion, bringing the total to €2.69 trillion. This increase was primarily due to the central government's borrowing, which included repayments on assistance loans granted during the coronavirus pandemic and to support the energy sector. The debt ratio, which is the ratio of debt to nominal GDP, fell by 0.4 percentage point to 62.5%. This decrease was offset by the nominal GDP growth, which reduced the debt ratio by 1.8 percentage points. debtclock.io  |

Given those two countries bad economic performances Cider are you saying that it isn't Starmers fault the UK is up the creek too?

the actual evidence suggests otherwise. |

I take it you are saying both Starmer is actually doing an ok job in relation to similar European countries and it would have been a lot,lot better if the OBR brexit losses are even half correct?

By:
So far 70 MPs have called upon him to resign. Another 11 are needed for a motion unless Cabinet ministers tell him to resign.

By:
Nothing to do with Starmer. You are claiming that a close relationship with the EU is in our best interest. But the EU is failing. If you've got the flu, the answer isn't jumping off the nearest bridge.

Source,the independent,the eye watering fee being lost each year due to brexit.
1/ £90 billion a year in lost tax revenue 2/ Average briton worse off by £2700-£3700 per annum in terms of GDP per head 3/GDP 6-8% smaller due to leaving the EU. Okay you saved £12 billion per annum. You would of course castigate him under any circumstance but without the above you have proven he is doing okay with your example Cider. |

The independent is the exact opposite. All those figures are bow locks.
And as I posted last night, the average Scot is annually £3K better off than then average Brit, due to 'wealth redistribution'. We'd only need to put a stop to that nonsense, job done. |

The Parliamentary friends of the main PM contender are riding shotgun for prime position but do not want their leader to pace-set for others to come through and collect the main prize. In the meantime the useless git is still in office at the country's expense.

I don't get why the odds for new leader April-June are as low as they are. Surely that's now virtually impossible with recess + long election process to come.
