So you admit you completely lied about UK productivity being up? I suppose it is a Brexiter modus operandi.

UK GDP growth edges up to 0.3% in Q2 - Financial Times

Not to mention your link is from 2014

Sorry my mistake; since 2014 the number of Financial Services jobs has dropped from 2.1 Million to just over 9,000, and they're about to go now too it would seem.

Well worth a listen to the Australian High Commissioner on R4 Today saying in his view the mood is too pessimistic about brexit, and that Britain can have a strong future outside the EU.

UK GDP growth edges up to 0.3% in Q2 - Financial Times

You do know that is the smallest growth in the G7, when last year we had the highest?

He managed the basic arithmetic with 2.1 million and 9,000. Regrettably he lacked the O level English comprehension skills to understand why that sum was logically irrelevant.

I'm glad there's plenty of work for low-level operatives like you - it's obvious from your posts you won't be doing any tasks that require a high level of cognitive ability.

Au Contraire, being technical and not a PM/BA type warrants a high level of cognitive ability, this is demonstrated by my interview success, time off bench and day rates over the last 10 years.
