Nah Notch seems like a decent guy - sometimes he does get caught up in what he says but on the whole he's a good poster.
So even the clever bankers, the ones that are forecasting doom and gloom over Brexit, were fooled and got it wrong then?
Which notchy is that?

How can those forecasting the effects of Brexit (March 2019) be wrong?
Anyone forecasting anything can be wrong.
Especially if they put it on the side of a big red bus
Which is why the Brexers take care to avoid answering such questions as
"How will trade with the EU27 work?"
"In what way will Britain benefit from resigning membership/"
"Where are these untapped markets you speak of that we currently can't trade with, but will after resigning?"
"Which of the available options do you want?"
"How will the Irish border work?"
"Is there any way in which Britain will be better off after resigning?"
"Will we have to meet EU standards if we wish to export to them?"
"Will leaving the EU cut immigration from China and India?"
"How many additional Customs Officers will we need to recruit and train before Brexit?"
I get that. But should we not wait for a period AFTER Brexit has happened before deciding whether they are wrong or not?

I suggest you pick another news source that's preferably not the Daily Mail. I doubt you have a sub to the FT. But hey whats £800bn? It's about 10% of the assets and it will only increase if we crash out.

True, but Barnier tried prising Euro trading away a few years back. He failed and has hated the UK ever since. I wonder why he was chosen for Brexit negotiator......

I have absolutely no clue as to what relevance the FTSE market capitalisation and the total spend on EU membership have to do with one another.
The FTSE 100 market is still valued higher now than it was pre-referendum.
Check out your pension fund, and then come back to us...The FTSE is barely above 2016 levels, and lower than it would have been.
And whilst you're at it look at the sterling vs euro/dollar exchange rate and how much extra you've paid in higher inflation, let alone those extra holiday expenses...
Then put those costs up against the 39p a day that membership of the EU costs you!
(although that of course is the average cost, so most people pay much less)
