what exactly is codswallop - GS forecast or the news of Trump's plans for import tariffs?

 

it's not only Goldman who are thinking if the import tariffs come in it will hit our exporters quite hard

 

The United States is the UK’s largest trading partner and last year Britain exported £60 billion of goods across the Atlantic which would be hit by the additional taxes.
Trump has pledged to impose 10 per cent tariffs on all products imported into the US and 60 per cent tariffs on imports from China in a move that threatens to trigger a global trade war, pushing up inflation and damaging economic growth.
 
The National Institute of Economic and Social Research said it had calculated that the impact of the UK’s economy would be a 0.8 per cent drop in GDP growth next year — amounting to a £21.5 billion hole in Rachel Reeves’s tax and spending plans. (this  -.8% est is worse than Goldmans playing with the numbers effort, clearly other people are worried too)

Christ not another black hole for the Labour astronomers to go on about.

10% is a lot - if he follows through our firms will suffer, but I mean the 60% proposed for China, surely that can't be right. Americans won't be able to go on Farmertec for a crappy kit saw

Make sense, dammit... the Jonathan Pie clip linked, or the Shie LeBoeuf film?

Calm down we don’t want that left wing anger bubbling over now.
