Brexit LIVE: THOUSANDS flee City – Boris must secure finance deal

 financial firms has sparked a mass exodus of bankers from the City of London due to the lack of financial service provisions in the Brexit deal.

Without any specific agreement on financial services, several banks such as Morgan Stanley, Barclays and Goldman Sachs have now moved senior bankers out of London. Instead, these firms have now looked to centres in Frankfurt, Paris and Milan. Due to the "post-Covid phenomenon", some firms are also looking to relocate masses of workers by 2024.

"8.27pm update: Brexit win! Remainer economist admits UK to outperform world and leave EU and US in dust

Britain is on the verge of outperforming the rest of the world thanks to its stellar vaccine roll-out and the stability provided by Boris Johnson's hefty Parliamentary majority, in sharp contrast to the dire warnings issued by anti-Brexit doom-mongers five years ago, a Remainer economist has said.

Paul Authers admitted the UK is several months ahead of both the EU and the USA in terms of its pandemic recovery - and in an excellent position to capitalise.

Mr Authers, the author of books including The Fearful Rise of Markets, said he had voted to stay in the bloc in June 2016, and still wished the result had been different.

However, in a column written for Bloomberg, he pointed to the current strength of the pound versus both the dollar and the euro as clear signs that Britain had bounced back from whatever negative impact severing links with Brussels had caused".

What part of "one is british" didnt you catch ,where do you buy your tackle? Hardys?

Like anything nothing does everything perfectly so you buy with that in mind ,the british company is still in the 80's tech wise foreign ones leave them standing  except on the beach but my latest beats it hands down even on the beach so it lives in the loft

If the company dragged itself out of the last century they may sell more

And brexit will illuminate cheap labour don’t be so ridiculous  won’t happen , let’s just think now what’s the minimum wage  under the tories under a tenner and it will stay that way with  the thousands about to join the dole que, with the Brexit and covid fallout .

Minimum wage should be changed to £2 per hour.

I think it is a bit early to say that. I would make the 17.4 million that voted for this shambles pay for it. 16bn/17.4m. They can pay from their salary, benefits or the can flog their gaff.

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.

Seriously Ken brexit made no difference to the vaccine rollout we could have done exactly the same being in the European Union .

How’s that pound doing against the euro compared to  the 2016 referendum , slight **** to be exact .
