Leave Campaigners still lying to the public
Commenting on the report by the Bank of England's Financial Policy Committee, Lib Dem Treasury spokesperson Susan Kramer said, "The Leaders of the Brexit campaign, including Andrea Leadsom, have been quick to claim that any hit to our economy was a minor blip and already in the past. The Bank of England's report shows that those who lied during the campaign are continuing to treat the public like fools even now. They need to stop pretending all is well and start acting in the interests of the country.

Where do we go now?
I first became aware of politics as a 15 year old in 1959. I well remember that famous Macmillan poster which went something like; "Life is better under the Conservatives. Don't let Labour ruin it" And they didn't . Nearly 80% of the electorate cast their vote then and the party of 'Super Mac', which had been in power since 1951, got just less than 50% of the votes. Scroll forward to last year's General Election and a very different picture emerges. Just over two thirds of the electorate bothered to vote and just over one third of them gave the same Conservative Party a working majority at Westminster. That works out at around 25% of those entitled to vote.
