Vodafone's German operation alone is larger than its British operation.
Of course it'd move.
>>79145152
>Of course it'd move.
But it is just one of many and it has 13,000 people in the UK.
Also, it was just announced that of the 7000 Brits working for the EU, only about 1000 will keep their job, the rest - including their families, will need to move back to the UK, that is around 15,000 to 20,000 people.
Then Tata steel assets, 13,000 steel workers and their families (in total 30,000+) might just be destitute following Brexit.
I am not saying you shouldn't leave, but I want Brits to start acknowledging that there is some pain involved.
>>79144980

This is exactly why I voted for Brexit. To fuck over the big businesses. We need small and medium size business back in this country.

Yes.
There is pain for all the people I don't like.
Most Vodafone employees aren't British anyway. They're a bunch of euroscum. French, Italians, Spanish, Poles, etc...

>>79149805
Just because you pay taxes and contribute to the economy doesn't mean you're not a cunt.
You need to accept that big corporations like Vodafone only care about profit. They have no loyalty to the nation and will relocate at the drop of the hat if it's profitable to them.
Fuck 'em.
>>79149583

Hold us to ransom, don't expect people to stick with your product.
Simply create a website for patriotic brits. showing those companies that are leaving because fo Brexit and show them alternatives. it's fucking dead easy to change your mobile phone company and keep your number. just an email.

Free movement would only be a dealbreaker for them if they didn't really intend to hire many Brits, anyway. So it's either they employ foreigners in the UK or they employ foreigners elsewhere. For normal British people, their departure would mean less competition for decent housing. Cry me a river.
>>79151772
the lost jobs go into related industries, i.e companies who still stay here. or they retrain and go into a different field. Or on the dole.
Basically, the same decisions that people are faced when companies entrench people before or after Brexit.
Companies will get rid of as many employees as they can when it doesn't' affect their bottom line. You can be sure that AI, increased automation like driverless cars, lorries will decimate jobs across not only low-skilled manual positions but also white collar professions.
What happens to those people who have emigrated here when that happens to them? They ain't going home that's for sure. They'll be anchored here sucking on the teat of the welfare state. I'd rather have fewer people in because these the more that come, will eventually create a massive benefits bill that we will not be able to afford.

Why in the world would you move business into the UK? We live in a globalized economy, not some sort of anti-globalist wonderland. There's no turning back.
>>79154956
>Why in the world would you move business into the UK?
Low taxes, ease of doing business and the lack of corruption. This is why a lot of countries in the EU cannot attract investment.
If you do business in Italy or France, that means bribing people in private industry and in the public sphere. These countries corruptly favour domestic industry.
>>79145352

The UK is the same as it ever was. The reason why we have enlarged financial sector is because investors want a firewall between them and the corruption, state interference and bankruptcy in the eurozone.

>By crippling national governments, taking away the ability for the individual to elect leaders who then enact the law they want.
I did go vote for the EU parliament, didn't you? Anyway, England will soon have elected who won't have any power at all. They will always have to say yes and amen to every rule China, the EU and the US is sending there way.
>Tell that to people in Greece, paying 24% VAT against their will. Tell that to the countries being flooded with migrants, being threatened by the EU with funding cuts if they build a fucking fence.
Sigh, if you borrow money and you can't pay back you have to raise the money somehow or you will never get any at all. They did not have to raise the VAT to 24%, they could have raised the money in another way. But I guess all the other options would were even less attractive.

Lol, lost jobs do not 'go into' related industries. One company cutting jobs doesn't mean another hires. It's the opposite, unemployment means fewer customers so they cut back as well.
>>79157113
The EU just said, that TTIP is failing. The US wants the EU cut back on their standarts. Not going to happen. Energy dependence is a topic, we are working on that. The Russians still depend on Euros. Putin and the Kremlin are getting paranoid, fearing a Maidan on red square. They need money. They are not making big deals with China as there are many Russian who fear to lose control over Siberia.

Small businesses are less productive and do not create jobs. Going back to an 'Arkwright' economy would mean a huge drop in living standards.

In Sweden small to midsized businesses are the biggest employers.
>>79158326
Living standards are already shit for most people.
Wages are stagnating. The cost of living rises each year. Rent is through the roof and you have to be earning well over the national average to ever hope to get a mortgage.
All the while the wealthy are benefitting from the cheap labour of migrants and we're told to shut the fuck up or be labelled "racist bigots".
I honestly don't care if it gets worse for a time. Something has to change.

>>79158559
Yes that is the problem. But it's eu fault. Leaving just makes the problem worst. Without high skill people joining the country your low skill jobs will have less to work and they will either reduce the salaries or fire peoples, while the request for lawyers(that do not produce wealth ) will skyrocket. The lower strata of the population is the one that will suffer, not the rich one
>>79158847
It's not eu fault *
>>79158424
>In Sweden small to midsized businesses are the biggest employers.
Small companies are not /creators/ of jobs. It's large and growing businesses that create the most jobs, and big companies are the most productive which is where living standards come from.
>>79158559
>Living standards are already shit for most people.
No, they're incredibly high, it's just that most people don't realise it. They're only going to go down as companies leave or lay off staff, as the pound plummets, as the educated and productive GTFO.
>I honestly don't care if it gets worse for a time. Something has to change.
It might not be for a time, it might be permanent. England might end up like Poland or Russia. But at least we'll have sovereignty. So independent as the EU, China and US tell us how it is.

Absolute nonsense.
If you're skilled (which I'm assuming you are since you keep going on about the "educated" and "productive") you can easily find work in the EU and beyond. You can go and work in China or Canada for all I care.
So you're not stuck on this island.
