Leaving aside the freedom of expression issue, do the MEPs have nothing better to occupy their time than censor witty cartoons?

Theresa May has issued a firm rebuke to Boris Johnson and insisted her Government is being "driven from the front" after the Foreign Secretary set out his own vision for Brexit.

The Prime Minister also refused to guarantee that Britain will spend hundreds of millions of pounds on the NHS after the UK leaves the EU in a further snub to Mr Johnson.

A sharp fall in migrant workers coming to Britain as a consequence of Brexit could push up wages and cause a spike in inflation in the short term, according to Mark Carney, the governor of the Bank of England, writes my colleague Richard Partington.

Setting out his view on inflation days after the Bank’s rate setting panel indicated it could raise the cost of borrowing for the first time in a decade, the governor said the rapid deceleration of migrant labour could lead to shortages for employers, pushing up wage growth and inflation in the short term. However, in the long-term, higher levels of immigration do not have an impact on wages or inflation, he said.

In a speech in Washington, he said: “Abrupt decreases in migration could result in shortages in some sectors that have become reliant on migrant labour, and contribute more materially to inflationary pressures.”

In the longer-term, “Brexit could therefore ultimately have only a modest impact on prices in general equilibrium.”

Would you consider a 25% reduction a crash?

[leedskier] 18/9/2017 08:25

Since the early 1970's (before then house prices were pretty constant) house prices have periodically corrected.

add

only in the tiny mindset of a young journalist without experience of the British economy over the last 40 years, would such a correction be described as a "crash".

They're all shameless liars bluster, it's their basic stock in trade.

[blusteradjuster] 17/9/2017 18:09

Johnson is a shameless liar.

More importantly, he has little appetite for detail - even worse than Cameron - so couldn't be an effective leader.


I'd say a bullsh*tting berk couldn't get the top job here...but then I look stateside..
