I partially heard on the radio yesterday that the Brit economy has risen by 3-point something since the Brexit vote. Since I didn't hear the whole thing, this needs verification and more detail. Anybody?

Blair always struck me as a particularly slimy butthole.

The Tories have been left-radicalized for a while now. That was first proven when they replaced Thatcher with John Major upon her expressing negative opinions of the European Union. And if their ramming “gay marriage” through Parliament isn’t proof enough, I don’t know what is.
