More money - maybe, but better? How many Michelin Star restaurants around San Francisco? Less than within 5 mile radius from my posh bedsit

What's the difference between America and a yogurt?

After two weeks a yogurt will develop a culture.

oh dear that made me laugh

Not to mention opening up the UK market to US Food and Agriculture business.

Lots of lovely US Prime Beef, full of all those lovely hormones and anti-biotics that we don't allow over here. Among other things.

sheesh kebabs, thats disgusting

Because nobody else would want to work in UK that switched to New Ekonomik Model

HTH

But it's an imposition from the UK, not the other way around.
Are you using British humour?

I don't understand this, why, why, why....

I think this pretty much surmises the anti-establishment vote and what will happen: Brexit could cut wages by 30% over next two decades, says private equity boss Guy Hands | The Independent

Debt will command higher interest rates as more risk is ascribed to an independent UK, and immigrants from Europe will be replaced with workers from the Indian subcontinent and Africa, who may be willing to accept “substantially” lower pay, he said.

Brexit means Brexit, or in other words - train crash where the only survivors will be in the 1st Class.

“The slightly sad thing is the people who voted for Brexit aren’t the people who are going to have to make these sacrifices,” Hands said. “That’s not unusual for big, political decisions when people don’t fully analyse what the economic consequences are.”

“Sadly, and this is always one of the strange things about business, I think it’s probably a bad thing for the majority of people and bad for the country, but I think, for my business, it’s probably going to be good,”

More sunshine, more exercise and less Michelin restaurants might be a good idea mate....

Might be a good opportunity to get to work and live in California. Better than a bedsit in Birmingham.

If you like sitting in traffic jams for a couple of hours to get two and from work, and ensuring you have a credit card with enough money to pay your air fare back to the UK if you have a serious illness.

Donald Trump and Theresa May wants to cut the immigration, what you may see on the news regarding the free moment it's a lie.

Free movement = Stay where you are.

"Theresa May and Donald Trump will this week hold talks over a US-UK trade deal that slashes tariffs and makes it easier for hundreds of thousands of workers to move between the two countries."

"Sources believe any agreement on tariffs would give Mrs May significant leverage in her negotiations with Brussels and allow her to demand that EU leaders give Britain a good deal." (AtW's comment: no, it won't!)"

"There are around 230,000 people born in North America aged between 16 and 64 living in Britain. The British population in the USA has been estimated at 700,000.

The USA will soon begin complaining that they are FLOODED with cheap labour from the UK, undercutting US citizens.

Would like to work in the states, not sure I'd like the working environment but always wanted to give it a go.

I work there quite a bit, in fact I'm meant to be there this week but postponed it for a few weeks. Luckily I work for a small technology company so the environment is quite laid back but a lot of work is put in.
