so on a sacle of 1 to 10 how stupid was it to hold a referendum and for what reason? to protect the tory party from ukip. and of course one other thing too tories wanted to remove our eu human rights.

yeah right. which ever way you look even if we are out, within a week we will be back at their door begging to be allowed in. what a way to run the country.

I think it’s a great thing for Brexit. If nothing else to see the break up of the Great Britain. It’s time these arseholes who have caused havoc around the world come to their demise. I will celebrate at Scotlands Independence.

you really are one unbelievable individual. it like claimig that it is a good thing to see the break up of the uk, despite the facts that we are heading for havoc and the poorest will suffer most. we already have people who cannot afford to buy food and this will be a million times worse and you thing brexit will be a great thing. it is just unbelievavle.

Tens of UK based companies are either closing down operations, cutting down staff levels or moving into EU countries prior to Brexit. Just do a quick search and you will see how many companies are moving away from the EU.
Brexit, is the ONLY reason the same reason that has driven the pound down.

When you make these claims why don’t you give sources for your information?

This I got from The Independant ................

When you read the reasons why ..... it’s a case of Chicken Little shouting ‘ .....the Sky is falling!’. The most commonly word used is ‘could’ not ‘will’, that says something too, they are taking precautions based on speculation. But few of the manufacturers are moving their operation’s, they are predicting that they COULD stop investing in event of a no deal, which is different to actually leaving. It is a case of be prepared but let's wait and see! Fair enough they are taking precautions ...... just in case but nothing that cannot be reversed.

...... except the banking and financial sector. They can literally move their business over a week end because all they shift is numbers! Banking and the financial markets are at the greatest risk ........... but they do not represent the real wealth making economy.

Which companies are leaving UK, downsizing or cutting jobs ahead of Brexit?

Dozens of companies have cut jobs, beefed up their European operations or issued warnings on the impact of the UK's departure from the EU (and that is what most are doing, so the headline is a bit misleading.)

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/brexit-companies-leaving-uk-list-job-cuts-eu-no-deal-customs-union-a8792296.html



Try watching Max Keiser and Tracy Herbert on RT (The Max Keiser Report) ....... he is an ex-market trader and, if you can stand his squeaky voice, gives some very good analyses of the markets and money. She I think, is smarter than he is. But worth looking at to find out lots of things you don’t normally see discussed in the media. He also has guest appearances by economists, traders, fund managers etc. :wink:

That is what I did and The Independent was the first one up. :wink:

08.22 added .......

When I lived in the UK we had a Vauxhall plant near us which is/was a major employer in the area. Every May/June the management would start rumours to stir up the Unions who would then walk out on strike. It took them years to realise that whilst they were on strike, the company did all the major shutdown maintenance and plant upgrades with local contractors.

Whilst the workers were on strike they were not getting paid, but had it been a plant shutdown for the purpose and the workers were sent home the company would have to pay them. This way the company saved millions!

Just shows you the power of rumours and speculation when people are too dumb to understand what is really going on?
:wink: :lol:

Robin, if you can remove obvious prejudices you harbour for the EU and ask your self this. If you were a manufacturing company based in the UK wirh your largest market next door would you feel comfortable ? Come on mate is common sense. Brexit, if and when , will go down in history as the biggest blunder commited by the UK ever. All those who want out do not do so for any economic reasons, simply put they loath the EU more so with Germany being the top dog.
