There are some great opportunities out there in science, medicine , environment and new technologies , all of which we have the skills sets to support that growth .
We need to catch up with England and get some freeports working as they can help regenerate deprived areas.
the good news keeps coming and coming for manufacturing in the UK

green shoots of recovery hopefully in the manufacturing sector
thought it fitted in line with my chain of thought considering we were told we were going to lose all our manufacturing base back in 2016 because of Brexit . In fact the manufacturing sector in many cases expect to grow especially if get over covid . Of course there will be winners and losers but at least I thought i'd share some good news god we need it after a year we've had
I'm still waiting for the pound to crash , empty supermarket shelves, mass unemployment, shortages of drugs (oh hang on) ?
Long way to go yet before we know its impact

of course will take another 10 years before we feel the real impact whether it was worth it or not but in the mean time I get cheesed off when people pick up any bad economic news and point it at Brexit
we are stuck with it whatever way you voted lets get on with it and try to make it a success . Shame Trump was ousted by the dark forces of the world he was sticking his neck out to bring manufacturing back to USA . If he got another 4 years there manufacturing economy would have boomed and we would have followed suit . China wins unfortunately keeping a stranglehold on growth in the world
By "dark forces of the world" I presume you mean the US electorate who cast 7 million more votes for his opponent or the Electoral College that handed him a defeat by 74 electors. Unless you have evidence of the work of "dark forces" that hasn't been ridiculed by provable fact or in a court of law.
Everyone indulges in wishful thinking if the party or cause they voted for failed to win. It is also legitimate to highlight the consequences of that vote just as it's fine to big up its perceived successes without either side needing to get "cheesed off"!
Good grief!

Leave campaigners have begun raising funds to open a Museum of Brexit after the long-awaited project was granted charitable status.
The trustees are seeking to generate £400,000 to buy a home for the museum – possibly in a pro-Brexit town such as Dudley in the West Midlands – plus another £250,000 to set up the institution and a strategic financial reserve of £350,000.
The project is being championed by prominent Brexiters who say they want to set up an institution that will tell the story of Britain’s departure from the EU “before items and stories get lost”.
Although all those involved in the project are keen Brexit supporters and the museum has had no public endorsements from pro-Europeans, the trustees said they were only able to secure charitable status by persuading the Charity Commission that it would be neutral.
so with the news of the UK emerging from covid in the construction and manufacturing arenas very strongly will the news of foreign workers heading back home in record numbers be a hindrance or will this see a trend in re skilling the local work force be the answer or be a threat to the UK economy ?

sometimes i wonder how to take these figures when we are still in un chartered waters with covid but still far more encouraging for employment in the UK for the next 2 years if these figures prove to be right
All kicking off in Ireland. What did Bojo the clown say again about that border. What a disaster Brexit is.
Not my words, but pretty apt in my opinion.
"This country is the unhappiest I’ve ever known it. It’s won nothing. It’s lost. And it knows it but it can’t admit it. So it rages. It lies. It waves its flag. It demands loyalty. It craves respect. It gets neither. It turns on itself. It breaks itself apart in its anger."
I'm not fully across the riots in N. Ireland but shirley the loyalist aren't protesting for a united ireland, as that's how i seem to understand it
