1/ What percentage of jobs will be lost?
No idea, alteady some jobs have gone eg the Head office of the European Medicines Agency headed back to within the EU. This will be linked to the slow down in the economy and this will depend on whether we get any sort of trade deal or notā¦ it took Canada many years, yet we have Boris trying to get something in 11 months when he is not even bothered by getting one?
Universities will see redundancies in many tech research centres as funding from EU is lost and signs are this will not be replaced by UK funding
2/ How far will interest rates have to rise?
Depends on BoEā¦ but would not be surprized if see a riseā¦ maybe over 5%ā¦ thankfully I doubt we will see a Thatcherite 13%+ā¦
3/ How will prices of staples (food, energy, services) be affected?
Increase for all goods we get from the EUā¦ including those that come from outside but are transported through the EUā¦ but again depends on any deal. The problem is we have a cunt in charge who is not bothered by any dealā¦
4/ What will change in the NHS as a direct result of Brexit?
Perhaps the most difficult. For those that say itās all a moan, we first need to remember that our health service receives less that HALF of the funding per person than those In France or Germany and those countries such as The Scandinavians who get the best healthcareā¦ because they are prepared to pay more tax to fund better health careā¦ we on the other hand have a culture that thanks to Thatcher believe tax and spend is a bad thingā¦
But my worry is that in order to get a trade deal with the US, we open up the opportunity for the better off to have acces to the US health insurers that fund the best care, best drugsā¦ the NHS wonāt be for sale, but will remain under funded so the option to ātop upā with US company insurance will be availableā¦ a two tier system, yet Boris can still claim the NHS will remain as it is todayā¦
I suspect ultimately, we will see US style
IDNs (integrates Delivery Networks) that will build new hospitals etc but for a private members ā¦ think a major expansion of the ten BUPA employer linked systemā¦ only it means that if you get cancer and are not part of the new private insurance schemes, you will only get NHS funded treatmentā¦ which is already lagging behind the rest of the worldā¦ and will get worse as the funding becomes less in real termsā¦
5/ How badly will travel to and from the continent be curtailed?
Well we will need a visa waiver for Ā£7, and we will only allowed to be in Europe for 90 days in any 180 day period, and working there will require more paperworkā¦ Sad situation for young folks in many industriesā¦
I suspect they will do a deal re the biometric passport channel but who knows what shit the flag waving cunts will ānegotiateā
6/ Give a rough figure for your anticipated decrease in GDP.
No idea until we see outcome of any trade negotiations In 12 months time. Sadly we are a service economy from a tax raising perspective and many of these jobs can easily be shifted overseas as not linked to manufacturing plant etcā¦ so even with a trade deal, I suspect a decline for some yearsā¦
The Government has now itself stated for the first time (fucking funny that) that some businesses will sufferā¦ never mentioned that during the referendum or GE campaignsā¦ but then again if you believed the shit they did spout, more fool you.
