"Still it could been avoided and how much is a few?...few hundred..few thousand?" Could have been avoided by not giving the people what they wanted? What a strange thought. And I would imagine a few means a relatively low number compared to the number that will remain in the City wouldn't you? | |||

And I would imagine a few means a relatively low number compared to the number that will remain in the City wouldn't you?" Are 'the people' getting what they wanted? Even if you only count the minority of people of the country that voted to leave the EU, it is blatantly clear that pretty much anything promised or even suggested by the leave campaign has been watered down, walked back, or just plain admitted to as unfeasible. -Matt | |||

"The outlook for the UK financial sector has improved since Brexit was triggered, the policy chief for the City of London Corporation has said. Mark Boleat says London will remain a leading financial hub with only a few banking jobs likely to move. Oh dear, whatever next "A few.... just from lloyds and j p Morgan there are 2000 alone Bottom line is that there WILL be job loses because of the loss of the European financial passport If you really want to go down this rabbit hole and have an argument.. you are not going to be on the right end of it | |||

Bottom line is that there WILL be job loses because of the loss of the European financial passport
If you really want to go down this rabbit hole and have an argument.. you are not going to be on the right end of it"I take it you know more than Mark Boleat about what's going on? I'll go down this rabbit hole anytime and will be proved right. As usual  | |||

"So c and m... since you are the one quoting him, what would you consider to be a "few" jobs then? Out or curiosity....." As I said above, I would consider it to be relatively low number compared to the number that will remain. Why would he have said few if the truth is a high or substantial number? Do you think he's mistaken, or lying? The 2000 figure you mention above, is that still speculation? Fear mongering? Actual numbers that will be lost? Or does it include extra jobs that will be created in the EU? | |||
"..... because to me, it seem like to be gloating and crowing over less job loses when we know people will lose jobs is really unseemly at best, and brutally cut throat at worst..." Jobs are lost jobs are created, that's life | |||
" Jobs are lost jobs are created, that's life" And if you are going to crow I truly hope you are not going to be one or know anyone of those who may lose theirs | |||
" Jobs are lost jobs are created, that's life And if you are going to crow I truly hope you are not going to be one or know anyone of those who may lose theirs " How do you work out that people are crowing over job losses? If anybody is 'crowing' as you call it then it's because it seems like there won't be as many job losses as had been predicted by the doom mongers. Companies will adapt as they always have in an ever changing world | |||
" Jobs are lost jobs are created, that's life And if you are going to crow I truly hope you are not going to be one or know anyone of those who may lose theirs " No one wants job losses but it is the remainers than "crow" about any story that puts brexit in a bad light as justifiication of their desire to stay in the EU, many remainers voted to stay because they have done well out of it, well many people havent and wanted changes so who is being selfish ? | |||
| |||
"Jobs are lost jobs are created, that's life " So who would help the farmers and agriculture to pick in the fields? I cant see any brits doing it lol. | |||
| |||
"Why can't u see Brits do it ?" Well, there was a farming program on bbc1 and most of them said they dont work as hard as the ones from the slavic countries. | |||
"Jobs are lost jobs are created, that's life So who would help the farmers and agriculture to pick in the fields? I cant see any brits doing it lol." ffs There are millions of jobs that will disappear over the next ten years to robots and automation Is picking or not a few strawberries the fucking best you can come up with  | |||

" Yes. And I will not apologise for voting to stay because as a result of the UK being successful and being able to easily work, trade and live in EU countries, I have done well. Because of the tolerant and inclusive society of the UK, I have done well. I guess I could be happy that my pension pot has just grown £60,000 in under a year despite me not adding anything to it due to the FTSE 100 doing well due to the currency devaluation. But I'd rather the UK not take such a short term, destructive view. The difference being that I would wager that a large proportion of the people who have 'not done well and wanted change' are not going to get any change to their benefit. -Matt | |||

And I really do hope for the sake of unity that May is able to get a deal that keeps everyone as happy as they can be. I'm aware it will be a compromise and that there will be certain things that both sides will be unhappy about. But as I've said before, the fact that as soon as the results were in the leave party were already backing down from what they'd campaigned on, means I think there will be more people disappointed than expected. -Matt | |||

Jesus, how much have you got in your pot for a 60k growth in one year?. Thats like three years wages for me!" I've put £60K in there over 3 years. Three lump sum payments of £20K. That was with my last job that ended just over two years ago. I didn't grow much in the few years, but the latest jump was about £60k. I thought I was reading the wrong column at first, but the amount I'd have if I cashed it in now would be about £140,000 it said. I guess that is not a growth just due to the FTSE as I guess that payout figure factors in what the govt add. I'm not a pensions expert... but as far as I know I think the govt effectively add in a tax rebate when you contribute. I was very pleasantly surprised to say the least. That said, I'm not due to retire for almost another 30 years. We'll have blown the planet up by then! -Matt | |||

"If you guys wanted a change you should voted differently in the general election it's not the eu making budget cuts and raising taxes you got the Sovereign government to blame for that. If a immigrant can travel all the way from Poland and get a job here ..who is the blame for that ? The immigrant? The EU? The government? Or the British citizen who didn't get the job?" True. But to be fair, but regardless on how you voted in the general election the government are still fucking us over, for example the Conservatives stated in their manifesto: "We are clear about what we want from Europe. We say: yes to the Single Market. Yes to turbocharging free trade. Yes to working together where we are stronger together than alone. Yes to a family of nation states, all part of a European Union – but whose interests, crucially, are guaranteed whether inside the Euro or out. No to ‘ever closer union.’ No to a constant flow of power to Brussels. No to unnecessary interference. And no, of course, to the Euro, to participation in Eurozone bail-outs or notions like a European Army" So you might be forgiven for voting for them and thinking that they might keep us in the single market. As said before the *one* positive of leaving the EU will be that there won't be a scapegoat to blame all our governments failings on any more. -Matt | |||

My father in law lost 30k on wedgewood shares, luckily it won't affect him. But lots of factors affect share price and pension pots. If it was simple to guess what would be winner over 30 years it would be nice. The 1 true winner long term is property | |||
