Brexit Facts4EU.Org reveals the official facts, and they’re positive for the United Kingdom

On Thursday (25 May 2023) the German statistical office released its latest figures for economic growth – or rather decline. Germany – the EU’s economic powerhouse and its No.1 economy by far - has entered recession. By contrast, two weeks earlier the UK’s Office for National Statistics released its figures for UK economic growth – no recession.

Not only that, but as we reported on Wednesday the IMF was forced to revise its growth forecast upwards by 0.7%, after only six weeks since it projected the UK would be the most sluggish economy in the G7.

Given the Rejoiner doom-mongerers’ constant false propaganda about Brexit Britain, Facts4EU felt it only right to give readers the cold, hard facts. The UK economy is still growing. Germany’s economy is contracting.

Brexit Facts4EU.Org Summary

Economic growth in the last six months – Germany versus the UK

Germany Q4 2022 : -0.5%
UK Q4 2022 : +0.1%
Germany Q1 2023 : -0.3%
UK Q1 2023 : +0.1%

Alex will be known to many readers as an ex-GB News presenter and a frequent sight on everything from Question Time to Talk TV. We start filming next month, if we can get some extra funding.

What each statistics office said

To quote the UK’s ONS :

“In Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2023, there were increases in all main sectors where services output and production output both increased.”

And to quote Ruth Brand in Wiesbaden yesterday, the President of the German Federal Statistical Office stated :

“After GDP growth entered negative territory at the end of 2022, the German economy has now recorded two consecutive negative quarters.”

This is the technical definition of a country being in recession.

The German economy is now 0.5% smaller compared to the same quarter a year earlier (price and calendar adjusted).

Observations

We have no desire to see the economy of our German friends in trouble. The reason for our report is because of our Rejoiner friends in the United Kingdom. These British fifth columnists simply don’t want the public to know the facts.

They talk of forecasts from totally discredited organisations such as the IMF, the OECD, the OBR and the Treasury. What they conspicuously fail to do is quote facts. The facts defeat them every time, which is why we keep churning them out.

If you care about the truth getting out there, please, please help us to keep going.

We must get reports like this out there

Reports like the one above take far longer to research, write and produce than many people realise. If they were easy, readers would see other organisations also producing these daily. However, there’s little point in the Facts4EU.Org team working long hours, seven days-a-week, if we lack the resources to promote them effectively – to the public, to MPs, and to the media. This is where you come in, dear reader.

Facts4EU.Org needs you today

We are a 'not for profit' team (we make a loss) and any payment goes towards the actual work, not plush London offices, lunch or taxi expenses, or other luxuries of some organisations.

It's quick and easy, we give you a choice of two highly secure payment providers, and we do NOT ask you for further support if you pay once. We just hope you keep supporting us. Your membership stays anonymous unless you tell us otherwise.

Please don't assume that other people will keep us going - we don't receive enough to survive and we need your help today. Could you help us? We rely 100% on public contributions from readers like you.

This week Jeremy Hunt was asked if he was “comfortable with the Bank of England doing whatever it takes to bring down inflation, even if that potentially would precipitate a recession” he replied yes.
.
BBC have covered recession in Germany. Brexitears trying to blame others. Even Nigel Farage admits that Brexit has failed but blames others.

2. Mike S , Saturday, May 27, 2023, 06:35:

1 Sparky, still on the, "Brexiteers blaming others" mantra but still refusing to acknowledge the remoaner/rejoiner ownership of deliberate sabotage from the remoaner/rejoiners since the day after the referendum. As for the Nigel Farage part, you've been told repeatedly as regards to that & what he ACTUALLY said & not what you want to believe & claim he said so, I won't bother now. Your untruths are becoming very boring.

Sparky likes to throw mud to see how much of it sticks, it's easy to wash off when reality bites

4. Ashley Great Britain , Saturday, May 27, 2023, 07:13:

Yeah I agree. Sparky is a good push merchant as are most rejoiniacs.
-
Maybe sunak can sling Germany a few billion to help them out. There's plenty £'s left after giving to France and over seas aid.
-
I drove through one of our little used back roads yesterday. There's an area 20 meters long with massive foot deep wide craters in it. There's also a sign saying ( Failed road surface )
That should read ( Failed council service )
It appears there's no money or inclination to re surface.
We spend as much time looking out for holes as we do looking ahead. Third world infrastructure is upon us.

Did you listen to all the interview and what he said after he replied yes?
For context
-
"Yes, because in the end, inflation is a source of instability. And if we want to have prosperity, to grow the economy, to reduce the risk of recession, we have to support the Bank of England in the difficult decisions that they take.”

“Brexit has failed” is a quote from NF interview on Sky.
.
Brexit news this week, “Big UK companies seeking a “foothold” in the single market to ease the red tape burden helped Germany reach its highest-ever level of foreign direct investment (FDI) last year.”

7. Gazzablack , Saturday, May 27, 2023, 07:46:

Yes Brexiteers are blaming others for Germany being in recession.
I can see how that would make sense to you..
.
So Hunt would accept a recession in order to bring inflation down.
Well then, Germany must be doubly blessed, it's got both.
.
Your misquoting Nigel out of context again sparky.
That's not clever cupcake, it's just dismal

8. LuxuryBalloon , Saturday, May 27, 2023, 08:16:

The German economy was always going into meltdown after Putin turned off the gas taps. And the PM and Chancellor have managed to avoid a recession by reverting some of Liz Truss’ disastrous policies and implementing a pro-growth strategy.

9. Sparky , Saturday, May 27, 2023, 08:17:

To be fair to NF, he fell out with the Leave Campaign led by Johnson, (strong campaigner) Gove and Cummings (brilliant strategist) mainly because he felt there was not enough emphasis on immigration and NF wasn’t really part of it.
.
Vote Leave led a campaign with a lot of wishful thinking and lies, the web site is still available and is laughable looking back at what they said and what people voted for, it’s just pie in the sky.
.
The stuff that Nigel wanted was not a vote winner and Johnson and Cummings led a much softer, Cakey campaign. Brexit was a campaign not a strategy.

1. Sparky ,"This week Jeremy Hunt was asked if he was “comfortable with the Bank of England doing whatever it takes to bring down inflation, even if that potentially would precipitate a recession” he replied yes"
.
Aren't you missing the point yet again !
The Bank of England can choose to raise base rates to tackle inflation if it decides this is the priority. Obviously they have to consider the effects on mortgages and personal and business lending and economic growth. This gives maximum control of the economy with no delays.
.
Germany can not do this ! It has to get the agreement of 18 other countries and the ECB. There is no such thing as an economic policy which suits 19 diverse economies. Usually they take years to agree anything.
.
Isn't it obvious which system gives a nation more control of it's economy !
