More bad news for the traitors:
 

Quote

French and German factories are “going downhill fast”, economists have warned, as closely watched data showed a deepening recession across the eurozone’s manufacturing sector. German manufacturers suffered steeper declines in new orders, purchasing activity and employment last month, with a key gauge of its activity hitting its lowest level since March. Meanwhile, French factory orders fell at a pace that was only surpassed by months during the pandemic or global financial crisis. As a result, the eurozone’s manufacturing sector continued its long slump last month, pushing its recession to a “gruelling” 26 months. Dr Cyrus de la Rubia, Chief Economist at Hamburg Commercial Bank, said: “Things are going downhill, and fast.”

By contrast, Britain’s factories recorded their best month in two years amid a rise in homegrown demand.The S&P Global UK Manufacturing PMI rose to a 26-month high of 52.5 in August, up from 52.1 in July, meaning the sector has expanded for five out of the last six months.

"Traitors" ?

Fucking lunatic.

Quite, the only traitor on here is supporting Trump when my grandfathers - and his going by the D Day threads - fought facism and totalitarianism and he wants it to make a return. Imagine shitting on your grandparents sacrifices. That’s truly a traitor.

Germany’s structural challenges are massive. Without cheap Russian gas or nuclear power (or fracking, despite its abundant shale oil, ironically located in AfD-friendly Saxony), it has brutally expensive energy costs, undermining heavy industry. Its auto giants are being destroyed by restrictions on petrol cars. And it has no digital industries to speak of. 

France is in almost as bad shape. Its economy just about eked out a 0.2 per cent expansion in the latest quarter, despite a hoped for “boost” from the billions spent on the Olympics, but the confidence data suggests it will soon be shrinking again. Its credit rating has been cut twice in the last year, and the markets have started to worry about its ballooning debts, pushing up the cost of the 5 per cent or more of GDP that the government has to borrow every year to finance its extravagant welfare system.

you forgot to include the rest of that copy and paste paragraph you used without crediting:  

 

Output, new orders and employment all rose but new export orders decreased for the 31st consecutive month. Rob Dobson, director at S&P Global Market Intelligence, said "The trend in export orders a key cause for concern, with new business from overseas having fallen continuously since early in 2022". 

UK manufacturers are experiencing difficulties in securing new contract wins overseas due to weaker demand from Europe, a slowdown in mainland China, freight delays, competitiveness issues, high shipping costs, global conflicts and political uncertainty. 

Many of these issues are also impeding imports which, while benefiting domestic suppliers, is causing supply chain-related production constraints as witnessed by a further marked lengthening of supplier delivery times.

Meanwhile, lefty Starmer begs for an EU reset, while France and Germany rapidly go to the "far right". I'm surprised he hasn't threatened to bang them up for a couple of years. Starmer really can't read the room, apart from his own little unionised and islamic broom closet.

The EU is finished, mate and we got into the lifeboat in the nick of time.

I know, let’s tether ourselves to someone intelligent, knowledgeable and factual instead. And coherent. Definitely coherent.

Le Pen is not in power in France, and AfD won't get to run the Thuringian State parliament in eastern Germany, due to proportional representation combined with other parties willing to work together to block Facist Nationalist groups.

You really are something special. 
 

The fact that you go on constantly about my post shows  how much of a sense of guilt you have about what you’ve done. The more times you repeat it the more it proves my point.

Germany is doing better than the UK and has been for decades. The same goes for France. 

There are plenty of old saying about debating with idiots. Here’s one for tonight,

Here is the graphical representation of the Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for France, Germany, and the UK over the last 12 months. The red dashed line at the 50 mark represents the threshold between expansion (above 50) and contraction (below 50) in economic activity.

I would be very grateful if you could educate this idiot on where this shows France and Germany doing better than the UK and why these countries are lurching to the right and strict controls over uncontrolled immigration, if the freedom of movement and common currency, both being a requirement of membership of the EU, are so beneficial. 

I'm not holding my breath. All you and your lefty buddies on this site have left, is personal insults and no arguments, much like Starmer and his grotesque cabinet.  Those jackasses can't even define islamophobia or what a woman is.

Just to help Starmer:

  1.  Islamophobia is the irrational fear of, hostility towards, or hatred against the religion of Islam or Muslims in general. Islamophobia is primarily a form of religious or cultural bigotry; and people who harbour such sentiments often stereotype Muslims as a geopolitical threat or a source of terrorism.
    Although, I personally see nothing irrational about such fear in the general public.
  2. A woman has 2 X chromosomes.
    This one is quite easy.

Go on then Einstein, drag yourself down to my level.

14 years of misrule, incompetence and almost criminal levels of negligence by the previous government and not a peep from GM. Starmer has barely had time to change the wallpaper at no 10 and GM is already all over the new government like a cheap suit.

It can’t have been easy for him seeing his party get such a well deserved kicking for so long. He must have been desperate to get the opportunity to do some kicking for himself and he certainly wasn’t to do that to Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss or Sunak, so now it is open season for him.

It will be fun to see the Gammons’ blood levels rise as we seek closer ties with Europe under a government who govern for the country and not the personal pocket liners who only care about themselves.

God knows how GM is going to cope when his American hero gets beaten by Harris.

No.

The German immigration minister has suggested that the EU might make use of the Rwanda facilities to deport illegal immigrants arriving in the  EU, under the auspices of the United Nations.

Daily Telgraph clickbait feeding their own ideological cretins.

Its also stated that EU law would have to change to enable it.

But of course the usual Tory idealogical cretins and Johnny Dimwit think it’s a fait accompli.

And suggested that if it ever happened, it would happen under UN supervision. No way that the ‘no surrender to the IRA’ brigade would have tolerated that.

It would have needed another £10bn to send even a handful of rejected refugee claimants and tax rises to pay for it, which the same bankrupt (bar the Mail) non dom owned tabloid outfits would have screamed about. 

Pity about that £40bn economic black hole that a hard Brexit causes.

Oooooooh look a Brexit supporter cherry picks one graph that they think shows that the UK economy is out performing some major European ones and posts it to the internet pretending that they have finally found the gotcha tat proves Brexit was a success.  While everyone else groans and points them to the bigger picture where all experts agree that the Brexit decision has had a significant, ongoing and long lasting negative impact on the UK economy, look even the governments own Office for Budgetary Responsibility spells it out and has done consistently since the referendum.

https://obr.uk/forecasts-in-depth/the-economy-forecast/brexit-analysis/#assumptions

I know you won't listen and you'll be back in another week or two to post yet another amazing Gotcha because we did better than an EU economy at something, sadly some people can't be reached they have wedded themselves so heavily to an idea that they will never accept they were wrong/hoodwinked by rich establishment types.

Yeah right:

The European Central Bank has cut its growth forecasts for the eurozone economy as Germany teeters on the brink of recession. The central bank downwardly revised its projections as it cut interest rates in the single-currency bloc from 3.75pc to 3.5pc.

Mind you, since Labour got in, the UK's growth prospects have screeched to a halt. Surprise, surprise.

for something to screech to a halt implies it was going somewhere quickly, UK economic growth has been sloth like for over a decade blaming any recent blip on the current government seems a bit childish when they have only been driving for the blink of an eye

UK growth in July 'flatlined' for the second month in a row. Given that the Tories were in Government up to July 4th, and any change of policy following the GE would hardly have registered by the start of August, I think your statement is more than a little disingenuous.

Less than a blink of an eye?
