          As you well know in the run up nobody thought the British people were actually stupid enough to vote for Brexit. And now that they have everybody's encouraged that it's not going to happen any time soon if ever, and even if it does will be a very soft Brexit making little difference.

          Come back and gloat when any part of Brexit actually happens and something positive comes out of it. At the moment all these threads you're starting just remind everyone that being in the EU hasn't and isn't holding back the UK in any way.
          Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

              UK pay: British workers see biggest fall in wages - TUC - BBC News

              Workers in the UK have suffered the biggest fall in wages among the world's richest countries since the financial crisis, research has suggested.

              Between 2007 and 2015 wages in the UK fell by 10.4%, a drop equalled only by Greece, the analysis by the TUC found.
              So, immigration and the EU have made us all better off then?

                GBP-USD:

                2007: peaks of over $2 per £.
                Now: $1.32

                Even bigger drop in wages.

                  Most people are paid in pounds, so that's got feck all to do with it.

                    Dollar earnings is the way to compare how well country did in the WORLD - especially so given that most things are priced in dollars.
