GDP growth generally.

Ah okay, well most likely yea, the UK has a large working force in todays and next gen adult working force to help sustain/grow the economy

something which germany doesn't

Because Germany is slowing but won't admit it.

hehe

you're not wrong

To be fair, I am waiting for Post-Brexit data, as trade deals aren't final till the end of the year, and first quarter is going to be a poor predictor for future growth - as there will be fear mongering and panic.

Q2/Q3 in 2021 will give much better data.

The UK could top Canada, but that all depends how post-Brexit actually goes.

And how shit Trudeau is.

Yeah, im not trying to big up the UK but the fact that there's actually potential after brexit for growth is success for us, and we'll see how the decentralisation goes

I think it all depends on whether the UK can get rid of trade protectionism and regulation in agriculture, and other things that make the EU sloppy and inefficient.

EU is ready to give that all up for CETA, TTIP, somehow they don't want to do the same for the UK

i have a feeling ireland is gonna ask for a referendum and try to leave the uk. to stay in the EU

That would mean putting borders between UK and Ireland

yes but the official language of the EU is irish

Thought it was just English, for convenience

At least, European countries learn British English, not Irish specifically

Official language of the EU is English

Since basically everyone hates the French so the plan to make French the official language couldn't work

its irish

Irish is the only official language of the EU that is not the most widely spoken language in any member state. According to the 2006 Irish census figures, there are 1.66 million people in Ireland with some ability to speak Irish, out of a population of 4.6 million, though only 538,500 use Irish on a daily basis (counting those who use it mainly in the education system) and just over 72,000 use Irish as a daily language outside the education system.[31]

what are you on about mate

lol. you obviously havent read any of the conversation

its pretty simple to understand

Irish is not "the" official language, it's one in over 20 official ones (the most prominent ones being English, German, and French). Why you worded it that way doesn't make sense, and what you said after that doesn't back up the claim of it being the EU's main language.

rofl

yeah ok...

keep thinkin that

You just said that Irish is 'the only language that's not the most widely spoken in any member country', and it's a fact that the three languages I listed are the most used ones in the EU. This doesn't make Irish *the* language of the EU.

lool

and you took part of the words out

to twist it

lol!

Irish is the only official language of the EU that is not the most widely spoken language in any member state.

@PSychoKunt

I didn't twist anything, the hell you talking about? I damn near quoted you verbatim and retained the idea regarding Irish. No, I was referring to your earlier comments about Irish being *the* official language of the EU. You literally said "yes but the official language of the EU is irish." <:peepodumb:538083903835996176>

lol you left out words from my post. lol

Nope

Already explained what I was getting at. Also the last quote is absolutely verbatim.

good lord your dense i have proven you left words out
