From Breitbart/Reuters:
Unemployment Falls in Three Months After Brexit Vote to 11 Year-Low
Britain’s unemployment rate fell in the first three months after the Brexit vote to its lowest level in 11 years but there were some signs that a slowdown in the labour market could be coming.
The unemployment rate edged down to 4.8 percent in the July-September period, compared with a median forecast of 4.9 percent in a Reuters poll of economists.
But the number of people in work rose by 49,000, the slowest increase since the three months to March this year, the Office for National Statistics said.
Britain’s economy weathered the initial shock of the Brexit vote in better shape than the Bank of England and almost all private economists expected.
The Eloi never know what is really happening. Great news from our friends across the pond.
