Off Topic EU deabte. Which way are you voting ?

It's still the same companies. UK banks already have bases in the EU.
Who said anything about moving staff?

 

The topic was discussed. You made a completely irrelevant and unsupportable point. You were pulled up on it, but continued to deflect, obfuscate, etc.

I didn't start out to necessarily to compete. If you have a valid point, I'll consider it. But, you didn't!..

 

By 2017 the EU will have sunk, Italy are very near bankrupt.

 

Not every UK financial sector business has an EU base.

 

You're ace. Sadly, I doubt you realise why you're funny.

 

All the big players do

 

I doubt that you realise why you're such a tosser...?!..

 

It's not as straight forward as that though

I think you've mixed me up with someone that gives a **** what you think.

 

Your lack of understanding is frightening. Someone else has already explained why staff would need to move to the EU. I'm not going to repeat it.

 

Amazing to think we need free movement, when we're supposed to be heading for financial disaster and Armageddon. Why would anyone want to leave the EU shngri-la for that?

 

No, I think I mixed you up with somebody who had at least half a brain.

Clearly, I was wrong!.

 

How strictly are free trade agreements enforced? I know a few other agreements are a tad loose, such as Sweden, who deliberately avoid meeting the criteria so they don't have to use the Euro.

 

There seems to be so much you're confused about.

 

It's true that if we drop to WTO then we can still act as if the free trade agreement was in place and allow goods and services into the country without checks or tariffs. Just need the countries the other side of the channel to do the same
Perhaps our stopping free movement of people will go unnoticed

 

Perhaps if we adopt the policy in many other countries, so it's not viable to move unless you can support yourself financially, it'd be irrelevant. We did try, but the EU stopped us changing our domestic policy. That's not democracy in my eyes.

The daftest thing about this proposal is that European banks already have bases in London for UK trade so the idea they would need to move more staff is an invention.” #10055

First you say about moving staff being an invention in your comment about me being deluded but then when I queried whether I had said anything about moving staff you say somebody else said staff need to move!

Just about everybody, whether in the UK or the rest of the EU, have local banks so passporting is not the issue when you are talking about the complete population. Passporting is more of an issue with big banks but they still have bases in just about every country but you wont get a bank in London dealing with a Polish merger.

 

Yep!...I'm confused as to why you insist on keeping on making a complete twat out of yourself...

I'll admit that's very confusing!..

 

Who knows, perhaps so a cock like you keeps trying to enter me.

 

You've forgotten Ireland which is the other side of the Irish Sea. Also Guiana which is the other side of the Atlantic.
