    America has a population twice the size of the UK, Italy & Spain combined, If they were getting 5000+ deaths per day it would barely even equal the same sort of deaths per million population of 3 of the "worst" countries

    Yeah but brexit!

    The pharmacist had 8 bottles of antibac left. I just bought it all. She looked at me like there's something wrong with me. 

    Yeah, there's a very good reason for that.

    If we finish there then fine, we'll be the other side of the red line unless something changes dramatically though

    Nonsense, finishing either side of the red line is fine margin stuff. An extra win or draw possibly, nothing to do with drastic change.

    That was based on the idea that we immediately left with no deal,

     

    Sorry but that's not actually true. The IMF (and George Osbourne for that matter) stated that the UK would be plunged into a recession, if the UK voted to leave the EU, based on the assumption that talks between the UK and EU would go on for a few years. The 'UK recession' prediction wasn't made on the assumption that the UK would leave the EU immediately - that was never going to happen.

    The assumption of EU/UK talks taking a few years was correct. The UK being plunged into a recession wasn't.

    Didn’t a lot of the so called experts predict we’d go in to a deep recession if voted to leave? Or were they referring to once we actually left?  I genuinely can’t remember.
     

    I remember the BOE overreacted by dropping rates and introducing more QE. That’s what did the most damage to the pound.

     

    If we voted to leave. We were also told they'd be a need for an emergency budget.
