BS on the whole Brexit will trash the UK as a trading centre... By moving TO the UK regardless of the result to make themselves more competitive....

I'd like a few more like that....

Excuse my ignorance, but what or who is BS. ?

The what: "BS" is cow ordure, Aggers ...

The who: Avon Cosmetics are moving their HQ from New York to London per this RTE (Irish state media?) article:

It's a little bit of the way down the "Morning Briefs" section.

Sorry my sarcastic humour.

Basically Avon is saying that whether the UK is in or out of the EU is irrelevant to them. In order to be competitive they need to be based in the UK where their competitors are.....

Who woulda thunk it? The UK hosting very competitive businesses who are some of the best in the world. I mean, it's hardly the status of a banana republic who can't live without being told what to do by the EU is it??

So I call it too. Bullschmit....

I'm not saying there won't be pain. I'm not saying there won't be an adjustment which may last a while. What I'm saying is that the EU is not where the UK needs to be in order to remain the country it has always been. If we do not leave we will become one of the 49 states of the EU, once they have incorporated Turkey, the Balkans, the Stans and half the middle east....

It is really annoying to think that the UK has an economy larger than Russia and also one which is suffering less over the price of Oil..... And to think that we are discussing whether the UK can survive in the rest of the World....

Ask the Russians. Can they survive in the rest of the world with an economy smaller than ours???? 'Parrently not...
