        Not all will be able to move, some will have no choice but to leave (as they get transferred abroad) and some who don't like what the UK is becoming will leave voluntarily.

        He's moving his business to Europe - I know several other people doing that.
        and all change

        subject of the thread was all the people moving back to Eastern Europe would turn the UK into a bankrupt empty husk according to bremainers. I pointed out that they had only been here 13 years.

        Now all the rich people are off according to AssSnob.

            They may be movers, but they sure as hell aren't shakers.

            As Purple Gorilla said, the people who shook the tree, for good or ill, are us Brexiteers.

            There comes a time when the smug complacency of those sitting pretty needs shaking, to give others a chance to excel, although admittedly there's little sign yet of how things will turn out.

                All you've done is changed the elite from the centre to the Tory right. Good luck with that.

                  Of course people like you will make up for that.

                    Morning All,

                    would be interesting to see if there are any statistics on this,

                    as regular readers will know yours truly and friends were in Essen at the weekend for Techno Classica 2017 https://www.classicdriver.com/en/art...ica-essen-2017

                    we left Essen at about 20:30 Saturday evening and took the Frankfurt -> Nurnberg road and got the taxi up to to cruising speed

                    and you wouldn't believe it, literally every 5 minutes we passed either a UK registered car/van/car-with-trailer/van-with-trailer or a group of them together, and these weren't a few Brits going on holiday, these cars and trailers were loaded to the gunwales.

                    These were people migrating, moving their home.

                    Where are they all going ? Where are they from ? They were heading east, our guess was they are heading to Slovakia/Romania/Bulgaria. They weren't Polish because it's the wrong direction for Poland.

                    Would be interesting to see if there are any statistics.

                    Begs the question though, who of the indigenous population is going to roll up their sleeves and do the jobs these people did for the money they were paid ?

                    Milan.
                    Fact is would anyone be so stupid as to vote yes to an important decision that you don't know the outcome of ? Apparently yes 52% of British people did and although you hear all sorts of nonsense about what the outcome is going to be, the fact is we don't know.

                    My own personal view is that we are doing something that will at best reduce the trade with our biggest trading partner which cant have anything but a negative outcome but I am prepared wait and see, relocating at this stage although understandable is a bit premature.

                    If it turns out to be minimal damage then it will be more luck than anything else, if it turns out to be the biggest mistake we have made in the history of British politics then we will need to hold those responsible to account.

                      Thought you claimed that all the "intelligentsia" would make a killing following Brexit? You really can't make your tiny mind up can you? Hilarious!
