It\u2019s funny when you consider that in the run up to the EU Referendum certain sections of the media were claiming that big business supported the \u201cleave\u201d campaign. It\u2019s funny because of this story<\/a>, now that we apparently are<\/strong> leaving.<\/p>\n

“We can’t sugar-coat this – many of our members are feeling anxious,” said Simon Walker, director-general of the IoD.<\/p>\n

“A majority of business leaders think the vote for Brexit is bad for them, and as a result plans for investment and hiring are being put on hold or scaled back.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to \u201cLeave\u201d, the parallel universe which Britain was going to exist in \u2013 on it\u2019s own – was going to be a much brighter place. The dickhead companies who supported leaving the EU were therefore signalling their belief in this deluded idea. And yet we now find that many of them are going to put a freeze on recruitment, with many more likely to follow, as a result of the unimagined financial uncertainty that has descended on our new parallel dimension.<\/p>\n

A freeze on recruitment means that unemployment will not fall \u2013 in fact, with new people leaving school and university (it\u2019s that time of year, too) it is likely to rise. Furthermore, such a freeze is often a precursor to redundancies, which are all the more likely with the fall in the value of the pound and company stock prices.<\/p>\n

Any sort of security seems to rest with the EU granting the UK privileges which it has no right to if it is not a member- the \u201csingle market\u201d being a prime example. HSBC is planning to move 1,000 jobs<\/a> from the London to Paris if the single market is lost. Likewise, Morgan Stanley will move 2,000 jobs to Dublin or Frankfurt, and others could follow suit.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d love some of the cretins who voted to leave to explain to me how this is good \u2013 indeed, how anything that has happened, or is likely to happen as a result of that \u2013 is good. The problem is, their concern was only ever about those nasty immigrants with non-white skin and funny accents. They wouldn\u2019t understand. And they wouldn\u2019t care.<\/p>\n

What is becoming very, very clear is that everyone is starting to realise the vote to leave was totally and utterly wrong. It was decided by idiots whose only skill appears to have been that they know how to erect a flagpole and nail posters to the sides of their houses. And it is being rued by those who should have made the decision to stay instead of giving these morons the vote in the first place.<\/p>\n

Britain should be a part of Europe. Walking away, waving flags, and standing with your chest out chanting \u201cwe can make Britain great again\u201d won\u2019t f___king work. Ever. Not unless there\u2019s a big market for flagpoles and posters these days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
