3. Maugham has attempted to engage with self-appointed naysayer-in-chief Snowdon.

He points out what I mentioned above - that Snowdon's focusing on the wrong report:

I'm sure you'll let me know, Chris, when you find the paragraphs I've tweeted in the publicly available HMT forecast...

It's the predictions that are old news, not the text, although a lot of the text is exactly the same too. http://velvetgloveironfist.blogspot.co.uk/2017/10/money-for-old-rope-with-jolyon-maugham.html …

So there's Snowdon immediately shifting the goalposts when challenged, from "Oh, this is old news, he's citing quotes from a published command paper from last year as some sort of scoop, aren't remainers just the thickest? Do chime in my friendly Leavebots" to "the tune sounds roughly the same and we voted Leave anyway, so we don't need to waste precious intellectual capacity actually thinking about anything."

But Maugham's having none of it:

But (most of) the snips are not predictions, Christopher. They are objectively verifiable facts. Why don't you tackle them?

Snowdon's response if you click through to view this whole tweet thread below is all too predictably *fingers in ears* "La la la can't hear you" (with echoes from bots and blow-ins):

If a simple 20-odd tweet thread can rattle Leavemaniacs' cages so severely, imagine what might happen if these conclusions gained wider currency!
