Repeatedly asking the same question over a period of time could be construed in that light, certainly.
Typical brexer…..spouts untruths.
Jan 2013 Cameron said: If I win next election I might think about it…..
The real date was:
The European referendum act was approved by the House of Lords on the 14th December 2015.
pound tanked Dec 2015 onwards
It's far more about the trend than the minute by minute indicators:Its already dropped back before the Beeb ran the articlea little trough here an a peak there led to them being about on 0.01% ahead for a few minutes.
London loses position as most valuable European stock market
Paris is now Europe's biggest stock market, overtaking London for the first time since records began in 2003.

They're more black than blue. A bit like the battered UK economy, sovereignty, global reputation, politicians integrity and citizens' well-being.
I actually hadn't heard that phrase before
Attributed to Ancient Greece it appears to be from a volume of moral writing by a Quaker in 1951.
And it might explain why i'm busy planting over the last 10 years; another sign i'm getting old.

Didnt the pound drop about 16% against the Euro in 2016 ?
A cylinder missing from the engine would be a better comparison rather than just one unreliable wheel.
That makes it the minimum standard. Anything else would be above and beyond that standard.
By slightly adjusting the Reporting period in the original source, a different picture emerges.
It shows that there had been a gradual increase until 2016. (it would be normal for the 2017 data to relate to 2016 real trade) That marks a high point for such trade, followed by an immediate reduction, a recovery, then a general decline trend in trade.
The next data release might reinforce that general reduction in trade, or it might show another recovery. "We wait with baited breath". 'scuse the pun.
You have to forgive notchy...
He has been known to get things wrong, such as the brexit vote
What he probably meant was that the rate he quoted was just before the vote in 2016...
As we all know after the result the pound crashed and hasn't recovered and hence why the UK is doing the worst in the G7 economically...
There was an example of a brewery about to go into administration due to brexit...
Here's another one that has been bought out by a company with it's foot in the EU...

"A British cheesemaker has sold his business to a larger rival to regain access to customers in the European Union after Brexit left him with an estimated £600,000 black hole in lost EU sales."
"Its new owner, fellow family-run north-west England producer Joseph Heler Cheese, has maintained a presence in the EU as a result of its larger operations and distribution hub in the Netherlands, which Spurrell hopes will make supplying European customers viable again.
Spurrell said he was thrilled to be returning to the continent after an absence of two years but still cannot believe how the government wrecked small firms like his with their decision to go for a hard Brexit.
“The sad thing is that small businesses like ours cannot have access to the EU,”
Brexiteers tell us that things will get better in 5/10/50 years time, but what they don't understand is that what is lost will be lost forever!
I think it did. Project fear it was called. Of course, markets didn’t crash, planes didn’t drop out of the skies etc etc. but it shook the markets and that’s what they wanted. It takes time to recover from lies like that….
We'd just about recovered from the financial crash of 1995, then came Brexit, and it's been downhill ever since.
And you're getting confused with Y2K and Brexit. Y2K was an international time frame dilemma which the world prepared for well in advance.
Brexit was/is a self inflicted national disaster with international repercussions.
Project fear has been proven to be a reality...
Exactly how long do you predict the recovery from the facts to happen?
From my example...
"Recent analysis of trade statistics by the Economic and Social Research Institute shows that trade from the UK to the EU was 16% lower than if Brexit had not happened."
Do you believe that can be reversed?
no he didnt say he would think about it he said there would be a referendum .
"Jan. 23, 2013: British Prime Minister David Cameron promises a referendum on Britain’s membership in the EU if the Conservative Party wins the next general election. He does so to try to garner support among euroskeptics within his own party"
