Ireland is nice. Five years residency for citizenship without Irish grandparent or spouse.

The trouble with truisms is they're not always true. Just sayin', like . . . .

It's death by a thousand cuts. Modern day slavery is assembling in front of us.

Next blow will be high interest rates followed by property market collapse.

After that will be legalisation of drugs and the realisation of a nation of hedonists who no longer want to work.

It is a truism that the UK is finished and we are now watching the death throes. Like a car crash unfolding in front of us. Those who don't act quickly will be stuck behind the wreckage.

It is a truism that many highly skilled Europeans are leaving the UK to return to mainland Europe.

It is also true that many Brits overestimate the strength of their abilities relative to others in the global marketplace.

So I would say, those that are not already embedded in Europe are a bit screwed. It's too late to start again now. Do you think you can be dumped by your wife and run into the arms of your mistress after years of infidelity. No my friends, you lost your allure once you entered the market. All of a sudden the mistress sees you for what you are now - tired middle aged frump who has let himself go. No one wants him, and he will pretend he doesn't care. You thought you had the upper hand but she's been dating Franco the gardener on the side.

Oh now go. Walk out the door. Just turn around now, you're not welcome anymore....
