Who the f**** needs Europe. We have all we need here.

London is security, and how many people do you speak to in NYC will understand German?

They don't need to, most middle class germans speak good english

Where is there any evidence that the major finance houses will move? There is none.
It's a stick we cannot hit Brexit with, there are many other real threats to the UK.

In my opinion the negotiations are done, it's over apart from minutiae.

What is the basis for your opinion? I presume you have good hard evidence, as you have demanded of others earlier on this thread?

No, it's based on my experience of large transactions, but I fully accept your point

The decision has been made to leave, that is the end result. The major EC economies need inter border trade, that is the other given.

I am convinced the key phone calls have been made.

Re the movement out of London is that there has been none

But you were completely dismissive of others earlier on and now it turns out you have no more evidence than they do.

If you are on about Finance Houses moving away from the UK, it's Infront of you. They haven't .

Like I said I voted to remain. But scratching at straws does nothing.

Your evidence that finance Houses won't leave when the transition period is over is that they haven't yet? 4 months before it has happened. I imagine finance house can move pretty easily. Its not like they are factories with a huge tech transfer to do. Basically get everyone to take their laptops

And Vis a vee you cannot argue they will be.

It is what it is.

What a pointless article. Brexit doesn't mean we stop importing food. We import the majority because it is cheaper to grow them in foreign climates, especially in colder parts of the year. We could grow our own if we wanted to but we grow things that is suitable for our climate (and export a lot of it). We get most of our food imports from Europe because we are in the EU but we could easily get a lot of it from other countries. We don't currently because the EU is cheaper and because there are tariffs on non-EU countries which we will no longer have to stick with. After Brexit it may be cheaper to import oranges from South Africa instead of Spain etc.

It's an interesting topic and some in-depth analysis would be good to read but this article is not that. It's just clickbait.

Brexit airhead - you have no clue about what we have lost and gained nothing but higher food prices and less choice - so you can have your sovereignty; feel more English do you ? good for you. I don't ; I'm European.
