London post-brexit as a financial center
- Thread starter TraDaToR
- Start date
That completely missed my point that the UK is a gnat on the ass of Europe from their perspective, the amount if imbalance in an insignificant amount of trade with plenty of substitutes is irrelevant.
You still seem to be confused about who is the one leaving here. You somehow seem to think that specifically because you see the EU as a "good riddance" they should acquiesce to your demands, or even give you the time of day for that matter. While Brexiter's feelings about the matter are important inside the UK, the EU could give fuck all about them, and certainly aren't going to give you concessions based on the fact that you all don't want to play in the sandbox anymore!
See that's the problem with EU, this "small town" club mentality that you have to bind yourself to me or else. There is none of this business relationship where we all have our own separate individuality but we still do business together. Having an agreement is a business decision, has nothing to do with leaving or staying in a club like EU.
You can't negotiate in good faith to have a mutually beneficial agreement in place? Well then you suffer the consequences of having chaos. And have fun losing the UK market that handed EU more money than taking from it.
Looks more and more likely that the UK will leave with No Deal Brexit. I suspect the EU will come up with a deal in the 11th hour. Up to them.
Looks like it. Well we will see how it plays out. It looks like it's going to be "Deal as you go" situation. Britain will leave with no deal but down the road, when needs arises, the two sides might reachto some agreements. So there would be constant non-stop negotiations then like a long drawn-out divorce, constantly going back to court. Hopefully UK would stop paying the club membership fee right away, get its border control and tax-setting ability back. Those were the most important things that UK is leaving EU for.

Brexit Flight
As the U.K. careens toward a no-deal Brexit, companies are jumping ship. The most ironic departure is that of Dyson, whose founder James Dyson is a prominent Brexit advocate. The company is moving its HQ to Singapore. Sony's European HQ is moving from London to Amsterdam. The 182-year-old British ferry firm P&O is re-registering its entire fleet under the Cypriot flag. And in the auto and electronics industries, stockpiling continues. Guardian

Dyson sells 4% of his products in the UK, the rest is mainly Far East and USA. Dyson is expanding their workforce in the UK.

Brexiteer "Madness"
Airbus's CEO, Tom Enders, has something to tell U.K. lawmakers who suspect people are overstating the risks of a no-deal Brexit: "Please don't listen to the Brexiteers' madness which asserts that, because we have huge plants here, we will not move and we will always be here. They are wrong… If there's a no-deal Brexit, we at Airbus will have to make potentially very harmful decisions for the U.K." Fortune

UK in 2019 to be the Best Country in the World for business.
“The U.K. has a globalized economy that is more open than most across the world in terms of trade, investments, capital flows and, until recently, immigration,” says Moody’s chief economist Mark Zandi.
The U.K. is the only country to land among the top 30 (out of 161 countries ranked) on all 15 metrics Forbes used to rate the countries.
