Do you think Business will start moving out of England?

[Freewill]

It's no secret that the powerful left will do all it can do to punish courageous Brits for their decision. The post really asks "do you hope business will start moving out of England".

EU referendum: Moody's cut UK's credit outlook to 'negative' - BBC News

That wasn't liberals nitwit.

How sad for the UK that their credit rating is now as low as the US, thanks to Obama and his Chinese credit card.

How is it that the UK's credit problem is the source of Obama and the Chinese credit card?

I was making a comparision to the UK's credit rating. The world is acting as if Brexit is the end of the world. While their creidt rating has been lowered it is now the same as the US, thanks to Obama who has been the president for the last 8 years. I hope that isn't a surprise to you.

No that doesn't surprise me that the UK has the debt, I just couldn't figure out how you were relating their debt problems to ours.

Actually I said nothing about debt. I was talking credit rating.

Mass exodus? No, I don't think that will happen.

Whether businesses stay or move or shift the focus/nexus of their business operations to other locales will depend on long run economic factors. There are many factors and no single or few of them are going to predominate for every business. A major factor that may incite departures -- the regulatory environment -- would be premature to gauge and act upon this soon.

I mean really. The "leave" folks haven't even identified what specific proposals they intend to implement. One must remember that the U.K. has a parliamentary system, so, by and large, what they say the majority coalition say are going to implement is what they will implement. Thus it'd be good to have some friggin' details before acting so drastically as relocating an entire business or major division. (Note: "production" or "back office operations" are not divisions for most businesses. They're units within a division.)

Mass exodus, yes. No choice.

Foreign (including US) businesses need a conduit into mainland Europe.

With UK going anti EU this leaves Ireland (Republic of ...) the next best choice.

I don't have a horse in the race, therefore I don't really care. I hope it works out for them, but none of my business.

If you're American, it's your business. The UK is the US's Robin when going around invading people. If the UK can't afford to do it, you're on your own.

Is it the UK, or Canada's business what we do with our economic system?

What the people of the UK choose to do is their decision, who I am to tell them they're wrong? We'd get pissed if another nation came and told us what to do (and we do all of the time).

There's a difference between a country making its own decisions and something being the business of someone else.

If an American person trades with the UK then it is the American person's business what is going on. They don't have a say in what happens, but it's still their business.

You seem to be equating something being someone's business as them having a say in that business.

I did not mean the word "business" from a financial stand point, but from a figurative stand point, as if somebody tells you to "mind your own business".

We in a global economy-of course it will affect us in some fashion.

Yes, I know. However what I'm saying is that someone tells you to mind your own business without thinking that it might actually be their business.

Something that affects you =/= "your business". If your neighbor drives a shitty car (rusted/all banged etc.), is that your business?

If your neighbor drives a shitty car, it doesn't affect you. If your neighbor has nuclear material in the car, does it affect you? If you have sex with your neighbor in the shitty car, does it affect you?

It lowers the value of your home, affecting you.

UK Treasury chief tries to calm fears over 'Brexit' fallout

LONDON — Britain’s Treasury chief sought Monday to ease concerns about the vote to leave the European Union, saying the economy is as strong as it could be to face the uncertainty — even as a survey showed many companies are looking to move business out of the country.

The pound hit a new 31-year record low, dropping another 3.3 percent to $1.3227. Stock markets also declined across Europe.

Osborne pledged not to impose a new austerity budget — even though he said during the campaign that one would be necessary if voters chose to leave the EU. He said another budget would be the task of Cameron’s successor.

------------------

What else will change once England leaves?

England will now have tariffs on it's goods.

Raw material will cost more. Of course these things will cost jobs.

People will need passports to visit other countries in Europe.

They will no longer be able to live anywhere they want in Europe.

Their movement and where they live will be restricted. England will no longer get EU dollars for science and research. It's scientists will no longer be able to move about Europe without permission.

And Scotland and Wales are talking about dissolving an agreement they've had for 300 years. That could mean that the English will need a passport to visit those countries.

Remember what Conservatives did to this country under Bush?
Brexit Revealed the Always on the Make, Money-Grubbing Grifter That is Donald Trump

Every single person under the sun, from experts to God, warned this would be a mistake and still fear won. Sadly, business's will thrive with the pound being so cheap at this point...especially outside interest, like Trump and once again only the elite, whom they sought to marginalize, will benefit. What people must understand that voting on emotions, never pan out. The only people who will suffer as always when voting out of emotion and fear are the very people that bought into the shit. Had they paid attention to our political reality show, they would have gotten clues....2 years ago, the mindless voted on for a majority GOP house and got nothing for their votes. All of those politicians play the fear card and to date, our borders are still open and we've yet to see all these good paying jobs they promised.

How hilarious to use fear to rail against fear.

What the hell more do you want from the government you are not getting? Has congress not given you some freebie you have been wishing for?

Listen bitch, I work for a fuckin living. I'm 57 years old, have been working since I was 16, served 10 years in the US Navy and have been on my current job for the last 17 1/2 years and until you come to me with some sense, shove your rhetorical conservative bullshit up your wide open faggot ass...you piece of white shit and free this...bitch!!

Yes, the tolerant and educated left shows it's colors with a well put together post.

It's ironic that people who claim to be "tolerant" aren't tolerant of those with opposing views.

PS: The word "tolerant" bugs the shit out of me when people use to look holier than thou. It implies that you put up with something, but on some level it bothers you. How using the word "accepting" instead?

What are you looking for here ?

When someone who is part of the group that claims to be "smarter", "more educated", less xenophobic, willing to dole out more considerations to more people...etc etc etc.....and goes off on a rant like that.

I am not certain what Bush had to do with Brexit--LOL

The biggest problem the UK has, is that since 1976 they have been totally dependent on the 27 member countries aka the EU. The UK is a consumer country and I can't think of a thing that it manufactures, drills for, or grows. No agriculture or farming, no energy that isn't shared with other member countries, so I doubt they'll be any tariffs placed. Even France, has control over their electricity, so they can turn on and off their lights whenever they want too.

They are in no way like the United States, where we can give the world the middle finger, and we would still eat and have energy to heat our homes. But that's why the EU was formed in the first place. To be be able to compete with the U.S.

When our dollar goes down, our exports take off to pull in the slack. The pound is getting pounded meaning that UK citizens will be paying a lot more for every day necessities. This means inflation. This definitely isn't going to go over easy, it's just the start.

As far as business's leaving the U.K. If it gets bad for them, they are going to move where business is better. When they move they normally don't take their employees with them. It's not rocket science.

The UK has shared health care and education costs with 27 other countries. Now UK citizens living in one of the member countries will be chased back home to forge for themselves. They've opened quite a can of worms. This means austerity eventually, to lower government spending, even though their requirements for spending on health care and education, and now border control will be more.

I think this was a knee jerk protest vote, that the citizens of the UK did. They didn't pay attention to the consequences of such action, and I believe they'll soon be regretting that vote. While I understand that every nation should be self reliant, and deserve their sovereignty, they certainly didn't plan in advance for this.

I expect a pretty good train wreck out of this one.

Bush sold America a bill of goods and we were suckers for believing him.

Republicans are walking with eyes wide open into an even worse scam than what happened under Bush.

What in the hell does Bush have to do with Brexit or this thread?

Brexit is a bill of goods the same way the Bush Tax cuts and Iraq were.

No it's a huge difference. The PEOPLE of this country didn't vote for the Iraq war, or tax cuts, that was all done legislatively.

One of the reasons for the great divide in this country are people like you, that continually dredge up the past--and use the past to to divert attention to present day topics. Now if you wanted to start a separate thread on Bush you could have but you used Brexit to divert the topic to Bush.

Not thinking past the tip of your nose, you are again pissing off Republicans (who more than likely the majority will be voting for Hillary Clinton) & you're in here deliberately trying to spear them into voting for Donald Trump with past idiotic comments about a President that most of them liked and agreed with.

I have no doubt the NWO Globalist assholes will try to exact some revenge on Great Britain. So the answer is yes. Great Britain will pay a short term price for gaining its independence. But it will survive. The EU probably won't though.
