Britain’s economic problems can, of course, be laid at the door of Brexit. We know this because it was asserted on a BBC podcast which went viral over the weekend – and no one would question the BBC’s objectivity. But maybe there ought just to be a scintilla of doubt in the heads of the staunchest remainers given this morning’s news that eurozone inflation has reached 10.7 per cent – even higher than Britain’s latest CPI figure of 10.1 per cent. Markets had been expecting Eurozone inflation to stay a little below the 10 per cent mark.

I think Bread was referring to the thread title Bruce
The statement that ‘Brexit is driving inflation higher in the UK than it’s European peers’ So I don’t think that its gloating.

Foxy, Bruce makes a good observation, there is always someone worse off, and, that creates solace, and gives perspective, that should be enough drive for most folks.
