Gluestick Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Interesting analysis released to day by Civitas.See Here:Well, we already knew according to ONS (UK's Office of National Stats) that in the three months running up to the referendum vote, exports to Britain from other EU states were £23.8 billion more than UK exports to EU states...A moment perhaps for all the sabre rattling hard-liners which include Tusk, Jean Claude the Boozer and not forgetting the myopic Hollande and the delusional Mutti Merkel to think again?

NormanH Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Civitas is a neo-liberal non- think tank, so I would ignore its propaganda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluestick Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 [quote user="NormanH"]Civitas is a neo-liberal non- think tank, so I would ignore its propaganda.[/quote]So are:IMF: World Bank: OECD: UN; anything funded by Soros et al.Do we ignore all cogent analysis and dismiss these as "Propaganda"?Or bother to analyse the output and drill down into it in order to provide valuable critique?Clearly, Norman, it is an non- disputable fact, the EU states export far more to the UK than the reverse.Or is this too a Neo-Con, Neo-Liberal, or other biased presumption, or worse, myth?

woolybanana Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I fear that Norman's rattling days are long over as his sabre is distinctly blunt these days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JandM Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Does the report give the same information in terms of percentage of the respective GDPs for the UK and for the remaining 27? I didn't analyse the entire document but I didn't come across it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluestick Posted October 29, 2016 Author Share Posted October 29, 2016 Easily found on Eurostat.Here:However, remembering the profound words of Benjamin Disraeli:"There are lies; damned lies; and statistics!"One must collate base stats from a variety of credible authorities and arrive at some average idea.
