Nothing to do with the adoption of the Euro then Pickle?

The point is the "accelerating" collapse of the domestic market not only in Greece but all over the world was rooted in reckless and ill-judged borrowing by SOVEREIGN governments and fuelled by the FINANCIAL SERVICE INDUSTRY the leaders of which, at the time, were located in the City and Wall Street. Everyone made money out of it while the going was good, not just those nasty German car exporters with their nice, relatively weak Euro. And then, following the collapse of the bubble in 2008, it was actually largely the EU with its capacity to borrow cheap and keep inflation down, that made sure exporters' interests, and that of domestic consumers, were secured. So it made sure demand did not in fact accelerate in its collapse, but actually grew at a steady rate until 2020.

But hey, you can always bullshit about how I'm such a DRIP and get a cheap laugh around here.

Surf’
Yes mate I hear you
Also worth noting that with the collapse of their domestic markets accelerating, a decline in our exports would not be exclusively down to us and would have happened in or out of the EU

As long as the premium cheese segment is growing in Poland, folks is Milton Mowbray ought to be very pleased indeed.

I don't disagree with any of that. My point was -0.3 followed by +0.4 pretty much equals +0.1.

-42% followed by +46% doesn't by any means equal +4%. Of course most will understand this, but there are fuck-wits like Swiss who don't understand that, for instance, a 60% collapse in Greek GDP followed by 10 years of 6% rises is a total disaster, not a symptom of economic health.

You probably won't. UK food exports tend to be of a premium quality. No surprise that Poland is way down the list of importers.

Re: EU Referendum 23rd June 2016 declares Cameron

Actually Pointy, the Stilton I recently bought at Lidl has "Long Clawson Dairy" on it, which turns out to be in Milton Mowbray so I make you right there. Must have been them selling off stock from 2019 and if I see it again I'll let you know.

Surface
I take your point, but for a degree of clarity, is it not typical for January to decline from December, what with Christmas and the continental demand for our fresh produce
Also, my understanding is that progressively our exports to the EU have been declining over recent years percentage wise in favour of other markets

Re: EU Referendum 23rd June 2016 declares Cameron

You haven't seen Irish Stilton in your shops and that's a fact. If you haven't seen Kerrygold in a shop before, you're a blind cunt - it's one of the most popular brands in Europe, including the UK.

I call bullshit.

Hammer and Pickle 11:06 Tue Apr 13
Re: EU Referendum 23rd June 2016 declares Cameron

I've seen Irish Cheddar, Stilton, beef, lamb and butter that I've never seen in the shops before. Good prices and excellent quality. And no sign of anything "Made in the UK" in months.

That's the tangibles right now. What is difficult to assess at the moment is the extent of the loss of trade long term. However, there are no indicators that it is going to return any time soon especially as the policy on both sides of the Channel seems to be to find any other market and supplier other than one in the UK.

For the time being, this is going to be the price of having this parliamentary majority and this government in office in the UK.

That EU exports figure isn't nearly as good as it looks Kaiser:

If Dec2020 = 100 then -42% =
Jan 2021 = 58 then +46% =
Feb 2021 = 85

Still 15% down on the year to date. I expect further recovery next month, but we aren't out of the woods yet.

Give it time, Kais. Once we've all dealt with covid then the true Brexit will rear it's ugly head.
