Re: Post-Brexit Thread
 

Anyone who voted on the basis of campaigns from either side was onto a loser and anyone who was swayed by either campaign clearly didn't look too much into the subject as neither campaign gave out much real information. There was clearly a group who went into all of this with none to little idea on their position or reason for it and they were probably evenly split between both sides. Majority i suspect had their decision made before the campaign started and voted that way.

Have to agree with that. Nothing tangible came out of any of the debates.

I wonder what sweeteners Cameron had promised these companies in return for their support of project fear? Plenty more to be revealed methinks.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
 

Well I dare say the EU is a nice little current and future earner for some very powerful people and global organisations. I'm sure they'd have very much appreciated having the UK still in the club and able to influence policy favourably.

Lets face it, the stakes are massive and the future rewards for those 'on side' are considerable. Just a pity for them that the public rained on their parade eh...

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
 

Erm, the Vote Leave didn't quote a 'billed' figure, but stated the £350 million a week was sent to Europe.

Uk building sector has shrunk to lowest level since 2009, another victory...

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
 

A 0.1 drop, that's huge. Construction projects are a LONG TERM thing. Buying of land, design plans, planning permission, all take time. Any new orders, deliveries, and employment would be as a result of projects planned near the beginning of the year. Therefore nothing to do with Brexit. There's a surprise.

Of the six family members i have in the building trade none are seeing less work quite the opposite they are farming work out to other company's as they have too much. If you want to see gloom you can find something to back it up and right now there are a lot of gloomy people in the UK.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
 

Don't try and tell me my job, it's been awful since Christmas and the projects that were postponed for the vote are now being shelved all together, I hear that everyday from clients.

Just back from Cyprus and our small poll there runs
Local Cypriots - want out of the EU but will never get the vote (tourist facing job people)
Ex-pats - want to stay, worried about change BUT one couple pointed out that some benefits were in place prior to EU because Cyprus is part of Commonwealth.

As an aside one restaurateur said when he opened he was approached by British expats who asked what discount he would give. When replied none they said "You don't understand, we're expats, what discount will you give us 10%, 20%, 30%". He didn't give any and since he is still there, full of locals (and we were full of his food) we didn't really care he wasn't full of Brits.
