Economists, meteorologists, IT people, and many other experts have the same challenge as doctors and airline pilots - people don't notice when you get it right, only when you get it wrong.
If you think economic experts get it wrong all the time, your bank account and pension are in serious danger, because the banks, insurance companies, and pension companies all base their work on economists and actuaries forecasts and predictions...

Don't tell me you trust so-called 'pilots'. How many times has a plane piloted by the ordinary man, the decent man, the man on the street crashed? Now how many flown by these so-called 'professionals' crashed? Exactly.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
As someone said the other day he is too polarising and would not be able to unite people behind him.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
If nothing else we have heard Theresa May and Liam Fox say they are definitely committed to Brexit. It will be very interesting to see how the vote turns out.
Wonder how the EU feel now!!

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Theresa May has been groomed for the PM post for quite a long time.

She was also a "reluctant" Remain campaigner. As long ago as 2010 she was saying the UK could control immigration without hurting the economy.
