Listen, if you want to keep your head in the sand then be my guest, but what I’ve posted is the naked truth. Just google it! 
 

By the way, the real reason England declared war on Germany was because they wanted their reparation payments from WWI, which Germany refused to pay. If they had not done that England most likely would still quite a few of the colonies they had before WWII!

Anyone who doesn't agree with you is in your book an "anti-British Brit!'

 

2) @Rookiescot is hiding that he's a Scottish nationalist (note small 'n'?! So you must think his avatar and all his posts in favour of Scottish independence are some form of cunning plan worthy of Baldrick!

 

 

Expand  

1) More assumptions and twisting from the losing side.

2) Spell/grammar checking is used by a losing side, plus, an avatar means nothing, just like yours. Raise your game chap...

 

1) As you frequently call anyone who posts here in disagreement to your views on Brexit "anti British Brits" or similar it's a fair assumption!

 

2) Not grammar police; a distinction between a person who supports Scottish independence and a member of the SNP. @Rookiescot is certainly the former, but I don't know if he is the latter.

 

My avatar is not a political statement; his is. 

 

I see that you have ignored the point about his frequent posts in favour of Scottish independence. Par for the course; you always ignore the points you can't answer.

From The Economist 24/10/20: What Brexit will do to the City of London

Quote

When the post-Brexit transition period ends and Britain leaves the single market on December 31st, financial links with the eu will become, in the words of its new financial-services chief, Mairead McGuinness, “less fluid”. That is putting it mildly. British-registered financial firms will lose the “passporting” rights that have long allowed them to sell funds, debt, advice or insurance to clients across the eu unimpeded, as if they were domestic. Thousands of jobs and well over £1trn ($1.3trn) of assets have already been shifted to continental Europe as City firms confront this new friction.

I am an unrepentant supporter of the UK leaving the EU. I anticipate that there will be short  and medium term difficulties and downsides, but I believe that in the medium to long  term it will be very much in our interests. I do not see the EU, in its current form, either fiscally or in terms of governance as sustainable ( a point of view perhaps rather supported by this topic). It will either become much more centralised, or unravel, and I am glad, in either case, that the UK is no longer a member - I suspect you may well be as well!

 

I also read the Guardian (and occasionally stump up some cash). I don't particularly agree with it's political stance, but that doesn't stop me appreciating it's reporting and journalism. One doesn't have to agree with it's opinions, to understand the news - a mistake which has poisoned so much "media" of late, both in the debate over Brexit and, brilliantly illustrated, the current chaos in the USA.

Yes and the other article was November 2018 and the figures were provided by a German lobby group, clearly you can't find anything more recent and if your bothered to read the bloomberg article is stated between 40 billion and 60 billion

https://fortune.com/2020/10/01/banks-trillions-jobs-brexit-move/

 

Financial services firms operating in the U.K. have shifted about 7,500 employees and more than 1.2 trillion pounds ($1.6 trillion) of assets to the European Union ahead of Brexit -- with more likely to follow in coming weeks, according to EY.

 

About 400 relocations were announced in the past month alone, the consulting firm said in a report on Thursday that tracks 222 of the largest financial firms with significant operations in the U.K. Since Britain voted to leave the bloc in 2016, the finance industry has added 2,850 positions in the EU, with Dublin, Luxembourg and Frankfurt seeing the biggest gains.

Accounting firm Ernst & Young estimates £1.2 trillion ($1.5 trillion) in bank assets are heading to continental Europe from the U.K., up from a projection of $1.3 trillion at the end of 2019. JPMorgan is moving around $230 billion in assets from the U.K. to its German operation, to support its trading and European client servicing there. U.S. banks in London say they are also transferring European clients on to new EU contracts one by one.

British companies risk billions in new costs if EU blocks data sharing deal
A report warned costs would be 'disproportionality falling on SMEs at a time when the economy is already severely challenged'

 

By Hannah Boland
23 November 2020 • 6:00am

 

British companies risk being hit with £1.6bn in new costs if Brexit negotiators fail to strike a deal over data standards, researchers have warned.

 

A report from the New Economics Foundation and UCL European Institute released today said that British companies were facing steep new legal fees if the EU decided that post-Brexit UK data standards were not adequate and halted data flows between the two regions. 

 

 

 

Organisations including banks, technology companies and insurance firms currently transfer data, such as personal information or financial details, between the EU and UK so that they can process it.
