Agreed. Breugel has nothing to do with the main article though. They're just quoted as talking about other job losses.
The source of the main article is Sylvie Matherat, the Deutsche Bank's chief regulatory officer.

Interesting. I had expected the pro-Brexit percentage to still be ahead. Will be interesting to see how the percentages alter over the coming months and years.
Poll was commissioned for The Times. Standard article here.

Oh look, another FAKE NEWS poll.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

In what way is it fake Mick?
It's a poll by a reputable company (YouGov) commissioned by an authoritative publication (The Times).

never ends does it ,it must take hours to trawl up all this rubbish

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

YouGov was one of the closest to be right in last years vote.

People massively overdo the 'polls were wrong' thing anyway. It was a lot closer than people think: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinio...eferendum#2015

that's too much info to take in can you just show who won .

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

Which is why we decide these things though elections and not the current state of polling but the current state of polling can still be informative. For example it might convince a PM to call an election.

This poll isn't especially interesting because the YouGov Brexit tracking poll has always had it around 52-48. This one poll is a minor shift which can just be down to sampling or whatever, it's within normal boundaries. The view on Brexit has largely remained the same with people sticking by their original vote. It's symbolic because it's the first time the tracker has Remain ahead since the referendum but it's not evidence of a real shift in public opinion.

Just waiting for the usual, Blue Ribband munching, suspects to turn up and put their usual negative Brexit spin on Amazon's decision to open new distribution centres, creating thousands of full time jobs...

Wrong type of jobs; wrong type of company; would've been far more jobs if Brexit hadn't happened; they don't make chocolate biscuits; blah blah blah...

:D

Remainers always focus on a few city wide-boy jobs going abroad and ignore the tens of thousands of jobs being created in our bouyant economy despite Brexit, or indeed, maybe because of it.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

and some of them trawl the lower bowel regions of the internet looking for negativity to post in an act of sheer desperation to save their beloved EU membership .

Sort of remembering why I avoid this thread

EU trade commissioner says bloc will do post-Brexit free trade deal with UK 'for sure'
Just to balance the bad news stories, but equally silly :D

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

Well it is hard to argue a coherent case for staying in such a defective club. ;)

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

It's probably more about the floods of vituperation, name-calling, and straw-man arguments about what those who don't agree with Brexit might say, make it difficult to have a rational discussion, when it appears that some people just want to argue...

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
 

that's a bit one sided ;)
