    How is being a contractor contrary to what I said? I offer a set of skills that clients have a choice to pay for if they wish, or not hire me if they don't want to. I've never had a contract where I have been offered an extension so clearly my clients are happy to pay for my skills.

    You may rip people off by offering a substandard skills, but not all contractors are like that.
    Keep telling yourself that

    People might want to read the original report, they say that around 179,000 people may be affected in the EU but worldwide 612,000 workers might be affected. That leaves 433,000 in non-EU countries who could all lose their jobs. Is Brexit now an analogy for 'How to Lose Friends and Make Enemies'?

    Brexiters have others been happy at the suffering of others, even though those who will suffer the most are those who are the most vulnerable in society. I guess it's the way brexiters, who are mostly Tory voters, have always treated the vulnerable.

    When you do have something a relevance to add to the discussion please feel free to post. Until then....put the keyboard down until you have learnt how to use it properly.
