2015, 2016, 2017....hence my saying "last I checked"...and I agree with you re immigrating people who just can't agree with a country's laws and social contract.

London post-brexit as a financial center

I think you did not quite get my point. I tried to contrast Germany today vs 10 years ago, well before the latest immigration wave from Syria. I stated it did not appear in October 2018 (when I was in Germany) to be all that different from 10 years ago, in terms of visible numbers of Muslims, refugees or migrants in German cities or villages. I did not argue the case about Turkish immigrants who are in Germany for a very particular reason, namely the granting of permanent residency after they along Italians and Greeks helped rebuilt Germany after the war. Berlin is one of the most hip places in all of Europe. It may not be your cup of tea, nor is it mine, but it certainly is not a shit hole. It has an even richer history and culture than Paris or London and certainly houses the highest number of monuments, museums, art galleries, and historical relics per square mile among any city in the world (I could probably argue the number might be higher than Paris and London combined). New York is like an untouched national park in comparison.
As of muslims immigrants in Germany, I don't how you could miss them in big cities, at least turks have been there in masse for decades (I don't mind them), last time I went to Germany was during summer 2017, and while Berlin was the shithole it seems to have been for most of the post war period, even a supposedly strict and wealthy city like Stuttgart had scores of black and middle eastern folks loitering around the city centers (probably more like hundreds)
First time I was i Stuttgart, so can't compare with how it used to be, such a scene wasn't uncommon in Hambourg nor Frankfurt when I used to live there, but I would sure prefer it without those dodgy folks hanging around.

Last time i checked, Germany is in a recession, Italy appears to have been in a living standards recession since 2000, and now France is about to go into recession. The unemployment rate of the EU bar Germany is laughable.
Despite Brexit uncertainty, the UK has record employment levels and a GDP growth rate in the last 8 months better than any country in the EU.
Germany has a GDP of 3,684.816 billion $ in 2017.
UK has a GDP of 2,624.529 billion $ in 2017.
Germany has a population of 82,293,457.
UK has a population of 66,573,504.
If we do the math the GDP of Germany is 40.40% higher than the UK. The population of Germany is 23.6% bigger than the UK. Final result is that the GDP per capita in Germany is 13.5% higher than in the UK. Not Germany are the suckers, the UK are. People prefer from far German products above UK products.
And on top of that in 2017 the German gdp rose, but the UK gdp had a NEGATIVE growth. Uk is in recession not Germany.

Regarding unemployment: UK has unemployment around 4.1%. German unemployment is so low that it is even not in the list.

I am out now, because I read a lot of BS here. Don't want to spent time on that.
No point of arguing with those who spread false news. They know it is false and they won't come around admitting it. I admit I got sucked into this BS. Good on you that you have the backbone to gracefully remove yourself from those haters.

Data for 2018 can only be correct after end of 2018. Germany had better growth for Q1 and Q2. We will see after Q4. And even then UK is far behind Germany.
