INNOVATIVE THINKING FROM MATTHEW LYNN

Matthew Lynn in a piece in The Spectator Coffee House blog (HERE) claims that Britain is doing all the innovative thinking in the Brexit negotiations. In a strange sense Mr Lynn is for once correct. If demanding fantasy and completely unrealistic solutions to complex problems is innovative then he is certainly right. Unfortunately, the truth is we are being "innovative" on the wrong topics, at the wrong time and in the wrong way.

NIGEL LAWSON & MATTHEW LYNN

Nigel Lawson was on the Today programme the other morning and he made the claim that we would be £10 billion a year better off after we leave the EU (see a report HERE). He dismissed the interviewers interjection that borrowing is set to RISE after we leave, in other words the opposite of what he was saying. I am surprised that an ex chancellor does not see the benefits of belonging to the largest, richest and closest free trade bloc in the world.
