‘From rhetoric to recession’: Dutch press say Britain is now facing economic realities of Brexit

Labour shortages have made inflation more persistent, Joost Derks said, putting Britain's economy in a slippery slope.

Dutch newspaper Boerenbusiness says Britain has woken up to the realities of Brexit with the seventh anniversary of the vote on the horizon.

Joost Derks said leaving the European Union “has not brought the United Kingdom the hoped-for economic prosperity”.

“The tight labor market means that inflation is more difficult to control than on the mainland”, he said.

That has resulted in the Bank of England having to raise interest rates which are likely to stall the economy recovering, putting the UK in a more perilous position compared to its European neighbours.

A view from 🇳🇱: Post-Brexit labour shortages mean that UK high inflation is more persistent. Inflation falling more slowly means the BoE must raise interest rates further. Higher interest rates mean slower economic recovery.

Derks says 2023 will be a “rocky year for the UK economy”.

“The Bank of England (BoE) expects a deep recession to last into next year, while investment bank Goldman Sachs predicts that the economy will shrink almost as fast as Russia’s in 2023.”

The pain, he says, will be inflation, although there was some positive news on that front today.

BoE governer Andrew Bailey says inflation is likely to fall quite rapidly in late spring as he indicated “a corner has been turned”.

“The other thing that has happened really in the last couple of months is that particularly energy prices have started to come off and gas prices quite a lot actually since the beginning of the winter.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
