Did anyone else listen to The Long View of Brexit? The episode was comparing Brexit with the Reformation, the split of England from the Catholic church.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

Yes, I heard it this morning.

The upshot is that, one way or another, the wheels continue to turn.

One of the points that I found interesting in it was it talked about the Brexit division along educational, geographic and age lines, however UK political parties dont follow those lines.

The UK had a democratic vote that's the only thing that matters, you whining about it is not going to change the result.

I thought maybe we could have had a debate around a different view of Brexit, but it seems its just the same "we won you lost" comments that we have all seen before.

He doesn't I tried elaborating on how a modern democracy does not operate on a clear cut winning and loosing vote.

Just stop wasting your time, he is obsessed with blinding himself with 'we won, you lost.' Oh and how he believes that the referendum was legally binding.

North West

The only thing that the referendum "clearly showed" was that the country is split down the middle and that a compromise deal is the only outcome that will bind the nation.

Demand that half of the nation (either half) be completely ignored is pretty stupid and those demands are being made by both Brexit supporters on the one side and the House of Lords on the other.

The referendum was advisory and the government now needs to read the result and act in the best interests of the country as a whole.

I disagree with what you have said as I do recall you giving a full explanation of why you left the UK a few weeks back if not a month back, and the reasons you gave then are different to what you have said here

so now, I smell a rat!! somehow things you say now and definitely not the reasoning you gave then

anyway, I am surprised you can spend so much time on this forum when you should be out sunning yourself or enjoying the surf life (that is; if you are where you say you are)

Well Osbourne would have done an emergency budget if he hadn't been sacked. You can hardly blame him for not releasing an emergency budget now that he's not chancellor!

That's what referendums do: simplify a complex problem to an 'aye' or 'nay' question. You don't get a nuanced debate at all, unless the choice is simple enough to grasp, which membership of the eu is not.

Good news for brexiters a cut in interest rates ever cloud ehh

Britain's economy is shrinking at its fastest rate since the financial crisis, indicating that an interest rate cut from the Bank of England is a "foregone conclusion".

That is the verdict of financial data company Markit, which said its monthly all-sector Purchasing Managers' Index saw its steepest month-on-month decline on record after big falls in activity in services, manufacturing and construction firms.

Markit also said on Thursday its latest purchasing managers' index (PMI) for the services sector showed a drop to its lowest level in seven years. The index dropped from 52.3 in June to 47.4 in July. A reading above 50 signals growth.

Chris Williamson, Markit's chief economist, said the numbers pointed to Britain's economy contracting at a rate not seen since the Bank of England last cut interest rates in 2009.

"The unprecedented month-on-month drop has undoubtedly increased the chances of the UK sliding into at least a mild recession," he said.

Do you know what, take no notice of these studies/projections. I live in the real world and work in the home improvement/building sector and have never known things to be as busy as they are at the moment. I can't give work away because everybody else is so busy too. And this is usually a fairly quiet time because people are on their holidays. So mild recession? Bring it on cuz I am knackered

if you believe that that has come about within 4 weeks just because of a Brexit vote you'll believe anything. Do you not think that because growth was unexpectedly high during the last quarter that we would have seen it drop back a bit anyway?

Newcastle and Gateshead

as with most things your see a little or no difference in some areas of the country and some sectors and they will claim brexit is the best thing that happened...

and you'll see huge difference in some areas and some sectors where because of recession and job losses the government can't (or won't because its not where priorities lie) replace the money that would have gone into the places of most need.....

i've always said that what this will do is make the government forensically look at spending and say "do we really need to spend in that way?"

so for example... child benefit for those families who more than 2/3 children, pensions and replacing the triple lock with a double lock instead (just inflation or earnings) ect ect....
