Taking into account the Brexit deal negotiated by Boris, the BoE has amended - down - its growth forecasts for the economy.
In 2020, a 0.1% reduction to 1.2%; and for 2021, a half percent drop to 1.8% - are now forecast.
So our own Central Bank now formally tells the nation that the current Brexit deal will slow down our economic performance.
A view they were previously unwilling to give - without details of the Brexit terms.
One good thing they added though - was the opinion that the ending of Brexit uncertainty would have an initial (though unquantified) benefit.
Presumably this expert analysis will make the selling of Brexit - which the ex-Speaker yesterday described as a major error - a bit more difficult.
Surely too - the opinion of the BoE/HM Treasury cannot be ignored, without good reason!?
