The European Medical Agency left their London offices today to relocate to Amsterdam.
900 jobs. Lost our leading role in evaluating medicines.

No clear pathway forward.

What they should of written on that bus

Step forward into chaos, we have no idea and we're just telling you what you want to hear: Vote Leave.

YANBU Every time I think we've reached the depths of brexit fuckwittery, it turns out that no, there's still a heck of a lot deeper to go.

Costacoffeeplease · 25/01/2019 22:50

Oh there’s much deeper to go, and the worst bit is that even if it’s revoked or delayed, all the jobs being lost won’t come back

YANBU

Agree its utter shit

I'm in Scotland and all we can hope for is independence and get away from this brexit crap eventually

Theworldisfullofgs · 25/01/2019 22:55

I'm hoping Scotland will take sensible English refugees.

The fact is I'm nearly 50. I'm too old to be an attractive immigrant. So I'm condemned to this for the rest of my probably now, never ending working life.

Well there is nothing on TV.........

FlyMayBe · 25/01/2019 23:04

YANBU OP.

Brexit fuckers Sad

NotGenerationAlpha · 25/01/2019 23:04

Don’t worry. We are taking back control. It doesn’t matter the like so Rees-Mogg and Dyson are voting with their feet by moving businesses from the U.K. As long as we are taking back control from Brussels to our muppets in Westminster. Remember Brexit is about sovereignty and the Empire

DioneTheDiabolist · 25/01/2019 23:04

YANBU OP. Depending on the deal for NI, I know that we'll over 500 jobs in manufacturing will be relocating to another EU country. It will devestate the local economies of 3 rural towns and all the surrounding villages.SadAngrySad

bananaramaspyjamas · 25/01/2019 23:12

While I get why the Scots are pissed off, so am I and at least half the country who voted NO. Maybe we can all move to Scotland then and just divide off.
YANBU OP

ssd · 25/01/2019 23:14

Yes, please come to Scotland all you sensible remain voters

Up here we can't believe the shit we're all being dragged into

Theworldisfullofgs · 25/01/2019 23:15

My dh's plan is to let brexiters have the South, even London. Remainers move north and expand Scotland. He reckons in 5 years we'd be thriving.

One word you'll never hear up here is bloody sovereignty

Justanotherlurker · 25/01/2019 23:19

You are a bit late on this revalation since it was on the cards since Nov 2017, and whilst the 900 jobs and prestige is a kick in the teeth for the brexiteers.

It is a blow against the neoliberal agenda of an EU body employing said 900 employees on favourable avoidance exempt contracts and even more so that said EMA are going to be dragged over the coals for even basic rent (not related to brexit)

A little tip to notice is that when it was clearly stated in late 2016, early 2017 that this was going to happen, the fact that the Independant/Guardian made little to none passing comment on it shows that it is far from a binary good/evil axis. There are many many shades of grey in whats happening.

Frickssake · 25/01/2019 23:19

Banana -I voted remain.
Thisworld, sounds like a fab plan!

Love it. My brother move back north and dh’s cousin fucks of south. Everybody’s happy.

Didn't most of London vote remain anyway?

Redskyandrainbows67 · 25/01/2019 23:23

Yanbu - I hope that everyone who voted for brexit feels ashamed. Although they won’t, as they are too stupid too and will instead find some latest scapegoat.
May Cameron lie awake every night ruing the damage he has caused to this country
F off Brexit!!!

Redskyandrainbows67 · 25/01/2019 23:24

Yeah let’s send the brexiteers to Wales and cast it out of the uk to be an independent country outside Europe...

gutrotweins · 25/01/2019 23:24

If I'm in Norfolk, am I north or south? Sad

Theworldisfullofgs · 25/01/2019 23:25

What I find hilarious just is the implication that our govt doesn't have a neo liberal agenda or indeed the brexiters (I absolutely refuse to call them brexiteers as if they are some heroic force rather than the bunch of incompetent machismo idiots that they actually are).

DioneTheDiabolist · 25/01/2019 23:28

TBF, I think that a lot of Leave voters are waking up to this. They aren't all stupid, most of them didn't vote Leave to cause hardship or mayhem.

bananaramaspyjamas · 25/01/2019 23:30

Had to google Neo liberal agenda. But yes they have got that, no doubt.
People have bought into it, even not natural tories presumably, because they believe everything they're told. IMO partly because the education system didn't or doesn't make people question things for themselves enough.
