Well you probably got that figure about right.

Nothing to do with brexit

over 21,000 more doctors and 17,000 nurses

Nothing to do with brexit, although the massive difficulty in filling vacancies certainly is.

Nothing to do with brexit, and I must admit neither is our sky-high infection rate, nor the fact we are 4th in the world for confirmed cases (https://covid19.who.int/).

Based on % of population that is a bare faced lie. In the last couple of days you also said you didnt say anything about vaccinations, another lie.

Unforunately the NHS lost more than 3 times that number, and the government have said they are way off track at hitting their targets.

Pleased to see this

LONDON — Spain has scrapped its post-Brexit visa requirements for British touring performers in a win for the U.K. industry.

The Spanish government announced that British musicians, dancers and theater performers and their crews will no longer require visas to tour Spain for fewer than 90 days in each 180-day period.

For that to have any relevance please add the stats about the prior state of the economies of those particular countries. It's very easy to to have a predicted high growth rate when your ecomony was previously down the pan.

Unfortunately, this is once again cherry picked statistics from the Brexit crowd. The same report also stated how much of these countries GDP had been lost during 2020. 

The UK was 9.8%, Germany was 4.6%. So in the next year, the German economy is expected to be 1.4% smaller than its pre-pandemic size, whereas the UK is expected to be 3% smaller. 

Now reading further on, the UK is also expected to have higher growth in 2022 and 2023, but that still only closes up the gap caused by 2020. When you consider that per capita, Germany is about 17% richer than us, so comes from a higher base. It's very possible that lower German growth rates in 2022 and 2023 will still result in a widening of the income gap between Brits and Germans.

Well spotted. The UK cannot return asylum seekers. So the number has increased three fold. Is that another brexit bonus?

Therein lies one of the problems with Swindo. He posts a link thinking he's making a great point for his side, but fails to read any of it, so by the third small paragraph it points out how **** brexit is.

Thanks 1902.

It all too complicated for SC and his ilk. Easy prey for fraudsters. Perhaps we should give him a 9.8% benefit/pension cut followed by 6.76 rise.

Maybe then the penny will sink (pun)

Unfortunately Swindon our experience suggests otherwise. Possibly due to the number of times this forum proves that the evidence you post can't stand up to a stiff breeze.
