[Merged]Brexit stuff (part 2)

[Forumbore]

TL;DR "Leave voters were older, poorer, less educated, and far more likely to think the country was getting worse than Remain voters, new research shows." Which means the Brexiters here must be outliers. Because hopefully they're not poor.

No

The people at the bottom end of the social spectrum voted to leave because they are the ones who bear the brunt of immigration - housing (how many of you affluent middle classes are being crowded out of your nice little houses by migrants?) . Schools - state schools in poor areas are having to take on the migrant children even employing special teachers for children that speak little or no English (how many comps, private schools, grammars in nice areas are being crowded out?) - Jobs migrants are competing for lower and mid skill and trade jobs keeping pay low and forcing non degree workers down the ladder to unskilled jobs. After all little Sebastian or Annabel fresh from Uni and applying to PWC, M&S, Atkins etc won't be competing against EU graduates will they? And healthcare - surgeries in areas overrun by migrants are struggling to deal with patients.

Funnily enough these fools who people like you seem to think "do not know what is good for them" have their own view about "what's good for our economy"

You mean that utter carp sasguru was trying to peddle a week or two ago?

He never did comment contructively on my reference to the Flynn Effect

No, SueEllen's post.

All these snowflakers going for media studies and art courses and thinking they know better than people who did proper exams.

Generation Snowflake. Because young adults having a fixed worldview is a brand new thing and has never happened historically. No, really.

It's the first time they've needed play doh and chocolate when the world bites back.

Of course they do. That doesn't mean it isn't stupid, ill-informed or wrong.

Oh... you've gone. Never mind then.

Nor does it mean that it IS.

Yes, our impartial "moderation" kicks in again. How very North Korean.

You don't say.

Obvious sock puppet, got arsey, Cojak kicked it out. No partiality there.

Brexit: Banks in 'advanced talks' over mass move to Paris, says French regulator | The Independent

Looks like a big move of banks from London to Paris is on the cards.

Does that mean Frankfurter loses out then?

Or are they doing what they said they would do a couple of months ago and open small offices with a handful of staff to give them a presence but keep their ops in London?

You're clearly an expert, so which is it?

Onviously the banks have yet to decide how much they'll relocate, but it is unlikely that the EU regulations will allow them simply to bypass them and set up token offices. These will be sizeable operations. Fintech invstement is already shifting to the EU.
