Re: Brexit Discussion (New thread-Follow First Post Rules!)

Pierre is absolutely right. Particularly the point about increasing the BoE's ability to make meaningful interventions when necessary.

I also wonder how many people understand why it is necessary to have at least 2% year on year inflation. Of course the main problem we face, Brexit or not, is productivity. If that rises, then 2% inflation generates proper wealth.

If as a result of a second referendum we stay in the EU then we keep our opt outs/rebates (unless those Brussels "whatsits" try to skew Article 50 to punish us). Btw, I do hope that the Remainers in this thread do at least share a large chunk of my opinion of the EU Commission as represented by Juncker and Salmeyr.
