Jesus Christ, get over it ffs! I'm assuming you're a uni or college student and you've still not come out of your 'safe space' since the referendum vote?! "My team didn't win - change the result or I'm just going to sit here with my arms crossed looking at the ground"
Most 'remain' voters I know are just getting on with it and aren't like "it's raining outside, that's brexit for you " etc etc
Based on your post you have absolutely no financial understanding - how about leaving your safe space and reading about the national debt, thinking of how that can be reduced and what some inflation might do for that, what it might do for consumer spending, what globalisation does to jobs and wages and why western countries are attempting to weaken their currencies.
Right, so there was absolutely nothing that could be done about the national debt without leaving the EU, and globalisaztion is going to be stopped dead in its tracks after we do? And you want to lecture us on "financial understanding"?

Oh dear, somebody else who won't leave their 'safe space'
These arguments have been covered already on this thread. How about you look to emigrate?
Does increased inflation do anything for us, seeing how large our deficit is ..?
Well inflation essentially erodes debt, so it reduces the debt in real terms. I know what you mean though, the national debt is massive, and we've still got a deficit increasing it further. Inflation is only expected to peak at about 2.8% though later this year before falling back, so it's hardly going to have much impact in the grand scheme of things.
The deficit has been shrinking in recent months which is obviously a good thing (mainly down to increased exports as a result of the weakened pound), but there is an awful long way to go.

Haha, I'm a uni student in my safe place, that's hillarious!
I left my safe place 20 years ago when I quit my safe job, set up my own company and packed my bags, left home for the first time and moved to Germany! Within a year, I'd bought my first brand new Scooby! I'm most certainly not a safe place kind of person! But nice try to belittle me and my arguments though!

So D Tusk has now set out the guidelines for our exit from the EU.
This is going to be a very interesting round of discussions.
We will still be members of the EU while the discussions are going on, so this is going to be an opportunity for us as citizens of the EU to see how the EU treats a section of its citizens at a time when the EU has lost us, and is saying that it wishes to reconnect.
Even though Britain is destined to leave the EU, what we have here is a situation in which we will be able to witness how the EU deals with a people who at least until 28 March 2019 are still in the EU, and this is going to be a lesson to all of the EU how it treats its citizens.
It is time for Brussels to earn some respect from its remaining citizens, rather than treat Britain with confrontation.
Any confrontation with the UK is in my opinion a confrontation with all of the EU. One day another member might opt to take the same course as us, and if the EU cannot treat the freedom to choose (which we have) with respect, then what respect does it have for the other member countries?
Article 50 was put there specifically for the reason to give a member country the choice of leaving. It should never ever be punitive.
Spain making trouble over Gibraltar again!! Nothing new there then, they make things difficult for UK officials by creating long tailbacks from the spanish boarder, causing grid lock of the small roads network & police time having to controlling traffic to keep the runway clear of queuing vehicles.
Plus with the Strait of Gibraltar being the busiest shipping lanes in the world as its Connecting the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea cant we have a say who uses these shipping lanes???

and by doing so prove exactly what it wrong with the EU, when a group 100 people can stop what is best for 1 million how is that working together?
These latest retail sales figures show that the post-Brexit surge in consumer spending has come to an abrupt end.
It is not surprising to see consumers reining in their spending. Inflation has caught up with pay growth,
we should see these retail sales figures as the start of a period of much weaker consumer spending growth - which will act as a drag on the overall progress of the UK economy over this year and next.
This is the clearest indication yet that the expected slowdown in the UK economy has begun
