The FTSE Index is not a good yardstick to judge our Economy, it does boost our companies that sell abroad, i.e Shell and others like them, they make the money but it is re invested back into into the infra structure abroad, the money does not come into this Country and most of the big Companies abroad have shares in our major Companies so they get most of the benefits
The £ dropping against the $ and the Euro may improve our exports as the goods are cheaper abroad but we are having to pay more for raw materials to make the product, like a shop selling goods for more than they purchase them, it becomes unsustainable, and it relies on how long business`s can sell their product at a loss.
As for unemployment I am sure most of us realise that the figures are " tinkered with" by different Governments, one just has to look at any High Street to realise big named stores, banks, building societies have gone .
The rows of empty shops tell the real truth behind unemployment.
And bring on Brexit lets cut off another avenue of our Business Economy.
