Some good aspects of the supposed economic downturn include:
- more tourism: more coming here to spend and see our beautiful land
- a boon for exports: this country can start to re-invigorate its manufacturing.
- disparity with the Euro: we can possibly put an end to the idea of ever joining the "dirigiste" economic ideals of the Euro and Eurozone
And isn't it strange how in a "downturn" that construction on major projects continues in London and a bank like HSBC has increased its profits this year
