It seems that the narrative is changing from, ‘we're all doomed because of Brexit’ to ‘it would be better if we'd voted to stay’

Remain supporter and former Tory Treasury minister, Lord Jim O'Neill, has said that the UK should prepare for an optimistic 2018, because global growth is going better than predicted - reports the BBC.

Talking to the BBC's economics editor, Kamal Ahmed, Lord O'Neill said the gloomy predictions of the possible effects of Brexit could to be dwarfed by the likely upgrades to the UK's growth rates.

He also said that he had not changed his mind over Brexit and said that the question now is how much better would we be doing if we'd elected to stay in the EU.

"I certainly wouldn't have thought the UK economy would be as robust as it currently seems," he said

"That is because some parts of the country, led by the North West [of England], are actually doing way better than people seem to realise or appreciate.

"As well as this crucial fact, the rest of the world is also doing way better than many people would have thought a year ago, so it makes it easier for the UK."

So, is this what we'll now be hearing from Remoaners - OK the economy's not tanking, we're doing OK but if we'd stayed we'd all be living in mansions by now and driving Rollers?

That won't get the Remain or re-join side very far, will it?
