I don't think money is going into the pockets of ordinary Greek people.

Report by big Law firm Freshfields. Main takeaway - Financial Services won't be ready for Brexit in 2019 and:

"According to the report’s findings, UK companies want the government to focus on maintaining flexibility in cross-border employment rights "

i.e. they don't want reduced immigration. The Tories aren't the kind of party that will disappoint on this kind of thing.

Listing on the LSE isn't investment in the UK. You can be a foreign registered company, do no business in the UK, pay no tax in the UK and be London listed. Also they've not pulled out of Amsterdam, they just have a dual listing. It's a move just to attract more investment in their company, not into the British economy. Yes they will pay listing fees and have to meet compliance requirements but this isn't some sort of massive boost to the economy.

Something that has more of an impact on our economy:

Worsened trade deficit despite the weak pound. Sluggish growth due to consumers spending less. Our economy is not fit for Brexit.

Sure, London may provide a good place for a pension fund to have an office due to the cheap pound. But the fact is that 28 jobs, half of them for Canadian immigrants, in financial services isn't a signal of a Brexit that works for Britain. The pension fund will be targeting real estate in a big way given the value of the pound, which is probably the real reason they chose London. This will just dilute UK ownership of UK property and mean UK businesses will pay rent to Canadian pensioners, meaning a flow of resources out of our economy. Also looking at their portfolio, none of their top 10 holdings are British companies. Quelle surprise.

Multibillion-pound organisations clearly see the UK as an attractive location to do business. In making the decision to locate here, they are expressing confidence in the UK despite your butt-hurt alarmism. Is there any "Brexit that works for Britain" in your eyes, that doesn't involve de facto remaining in the EU? You strike me as hilariously protectionist for someone who worships at the EU altar.

It's impressive, the desperation in painting every positive story posted on here as doom and gloom. You must be great fun at parties. Sneer and wail all you like. It's all you'll have come the 9th June.
