Duck Trump, what a waste of airtime and skin .
Let’s not get distracted. How about we talk about the latest Performance of Manufacturing (PMI) and Performance of Services (PSI) indices.
A 17 year low and crumbling still under this Government’s cuts.
Even the prediction of unemployment was wrong.
-eg. the downtrend in job vacancies is accelerating
” “The prospect of deeper employment cuts, as seem increasingly inevitable, means the rise in unemployment could occur faster than we’ve allowed for.
The attendant impacts on job security, wage growth, spending intentions, and housing market activity have the potential to insert another layer of weakness into the economy over the second half of this year.”
I repeat – fuck Trump.
