Well b back 3,208 Posted November 19, 2021 over 21,000 more doctors and 17,000 nurses Unforunately the NHS lost more than 3 times that number, and the government have said they are way off track at hitting their targets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Van wink 2,994 Posted November 19, 2021 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.

1902 1,167 Posted November 19, 2021 (edited) 58 minutes ago, SwindonCanary said: his reply was just " brexit means brexit " = look at the question 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.

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) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
