17 years without a raise? Welcome to Brexit Britain

As BREXIT is still ongoing, the future not looking good. After U.K Treasury published its report,  it look like there is going to be a weak outcome for growth. Britain have fallen out the top 5  world’s economies. From the report it looks like Britain would be unable to have a pay hike until 2025, that means 17 years without any pay raise. The ORB (Office of Budget Responsibility) predict that in 2025 it’s annual wage would be $740 below its pre-crisis peak from prior year. But Treasury chief Philip Hammond  have said to have set  $4billion to prepare BREXIT up to the next two years after it’s departed.

EU to Britain: Offer Brexit cash now or we won't talk trade

It looks like BREXIT is far from done. Talks are still on going. It’s still unclear about what would happen after BREXIT. It’s looks like the issue of Ireland hasn’t come to an agreement, therefore without any progress, the EU won’t discuss any future trading relationship.   Britain had hope for a conclusion, so it can move forward onto the next phase. Secondly, Businesses are worry, according to the article “Key trade, regulations and legal agreement under the Britain’s economy will be invalided is no deal is struck”. And while business are clamoring for clarity.

MPs vote for Theresa May to release 58 secret studies into Brexit's economic 'damage'

There's more daily news on Brexit. Today it is a vote for Theresa May to release the 58 secret studies that the UK gov. executed.
