The number of unemployed Britons fell by 52,000 to 1.64 million in July as the country’s labor market showed no signs of adverse effects from the vote to leave the European Union. The unemployment rate remained at 4.9 percent in the three months to June, according to official data released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) on Wednesday. Average earnings grew 2.4 percent compared with a year earlier, with total pay excluding bonuses rising 2.3 percent, the ONS reports. https://www.rt.com/business/356235-uk-unemployment-falls-brexit/ |

Jobs increased from April to June. The referendum was at the end of June. |

There are rarely adverse effects from events before they happen. Chronology yo. Also, obvious propagandist is obvious. |

Well, the UK is still a EU member, so it is correct to talk only about psycological impact on British economy, which was present both before and after the referendum. Though, with different strength. So what we really can say is that both business and population does not care much, there is no expectation of contraction of business activity. |
