    No you're the one being comical. And naive.
    So you really think if the EU migrants leave, wages will go up?
    What's more likely to happen is larger companies (the volume employers, the ones that matter) relocate to where labour is cheaper, thus hollowing out the economy, thus fewer jobs and more people chasing them, depressing wages further.
    There are many places in Europe, particulalry Eastern Europe, where you get a better educated population for much cheaper.

    Take the car industry e.g. if tariffs are introduced it'll be a no brainer to move to Slovenia or Spain both of which have good workers for cheaper wages and a car making infrastucture in place.
    Hard Brexit now!

      Yeah because being a horny-handed son of the soil like you are is going to make you analyse the situation better
      Forget Brexit, the country is fooked purely because it has bred too many idiots.
      Hard Brexit now!

        Actually I believe (love this word!) wages might increase after brexit. The problem is, if people waited a little bit longer the eastern Europe would be enriched enough that you would benefit from trade with them further and that in turn would increase wages across whole europe including UK That's what was the principle of net contribution. To even out countries wealth.

          You really don't know what you're talking about. I was born and bred in South London and SASGuru dearest, you've got no more qualifications than me.

            Go back and read my original comment. It wasn't complicated nor requires you to go off on some tangent.

              Yes since the polys became universities, on paper you can have 2 people who look roughly the same, quals wise.
              Although the institution and the subject studied are usually differentiators.
              But in the end the biggest differentiator is talent, the cream always rises to the top.

              So are you talent or do you just possess some certificates? You don't come across as the former.
              Hard Brexit now!

                    That even goes worse than i thought. I still think there must be one damn good reason you went ahead for all this madness ?!

                      Doesn't answer my question.
                      I've worked with some PhDs from Russell group unis with no talent whatsoever, just the ability to avoid work and spend 8 years writing a "thesis".
                      And the most talented person I've ever seen left shool at 16.

                      Basically the way to check if you're talented is, are you on the big bucks?:
