Geologist is not longer on the SOL. It's on the CSOL list which is used for 457s though. I'm hoping the mining industry picks up again in the next year or so; it's certainly more lively than it has been over the past 2 years. Just hope it's before our economy collapses.
There's not going to be a collapse. The people who made those predictions are now slowly backing away from them. I'm still waiting for WWIII, the emergency budget, and a plague of locusts.

Nobody serious was ever forecasting economic collapse. We will probably just enter a period of slower growth and rising prices. Well, prices are already rising but inflation is still below wage growth.. for now.
We'll have a better understanding in 5-10 years. Too early to truly say one way or the other.

Many experts were seriously predicting recession by the end of 2016 if the UK voted to leave, yet it remained the fastest growing economy in the G7. It's obvious that these were scare tactics, or perhaps the economists were simply incompetent?

Neither. Economics is a social science so is far from perfect and liable to error. Economists make educated guesses.
A recession doesn't equate to economic collapse either. It's an inevitable part of the economic cycle.
You're not 'sick of experts' by any chance, are you?

No, I'm sick of experts who allow political agendas to cloud their judgement. They were so far off with this, and a number of other major predictions, that the public are quite rightly beginning to question their integrity.
