I doubt they want the upheaval of moving HQ and it will put people out of work if it happens so I don't really understand your attitude Kirk?

I do not want ANYONE to move from the UK Cherie because of Brexit - there really is no need - but I am not as forgiving and accepting of BLACKMAIL and THREAT as some people I suppose. There is a long way to go before we actually do Brexit, and the status quo remains the same until then, so all this talk of 'quitting' is baloney.

These companies grew and their owners got EXTREMELY wealthy on the backs of BRITISH workers, so I have nothing but contempt for them now wanting to desert their employees and go where they can exploit cheap labour in the form of lowly paid workers - because, THAT FACT is THE REAL REASON why some of these will move - if they do, indeed, move.

Watch what happens once the UK recovers and prospers.

At least everyone knows they may Jump Ship
to a cheap EU zone.

FECK EU

As no one knows what the deal will be they have to plan ahead to move if necessary, Easy Jet has been around for years so they could have moved HQ to another part of the EU at any time if all they wanted was cheap labour, much and all as you hated the EU you must admit there were benefits for member countries, I don't know anything about the arrangements Easy Jet have with EU airports but as they make up the main bulk of their destinations I guess there is an advantage to them to remain inside the EU :shrug:

So as the UK sees more companies pull out - likely helped along by the EU who you have said yourself offer bribes and incentives and now want to see the UK fail more than ever - with jib losses and GDP drops...

You're going to be angry at and blame the private companies? When you've just helped and called along to the ushering in of unbridled hard-right Tory capitalism as far as the eye can see? You'd be as well screaming into the sky Kirk... Private enterprise does not "care" about its workers beyond what promotes productivity. It does not care about its customers beyond what promotes repeat custom. It follows the £€$, and it's now going to comprise the entire UK landscape... This dream of a good / fair independent UK is pie in the sky. Independent we will be. Independent little rusty cogs in a lonely, broken machine.

I live in the same country T.S. and have done since times were REALLY hard for the lower working class - Jenny Juniper and Smudgie might know what i'm talking about - but I have never had your pessimistic attitude, so I guess we both react to the same given stimulus differently.

There's an obvious explanation for this Kirk. You have direct experience of "things looking up" and people's lives across the board improving in your lifetime. In mine, I have only seen things get worse, and I see very little evidence of that trend reversing.

[Toy Soldier]

Yeah to be fair... I don't think they seal their planes properly... I get crippling pressure headaches on descent on easyjet flights. Was on one back from France about 10 years ago and my eardrum perforated :umm2:. And on the way to Portugal 2 years ago, I swear I thought I was having a stroke.

...we're leaving on a jet plane...oh bother, they're taking all of the jet planes as well...

Yes that was to be Expected

Ireland is in the Sinking EU
so they can go many places.

Yes they do not like you doing that.
So Please do no start a fight
as they are still in the UK with their HQ.



So lets wait and see.
please

I doubt very much most people would boycott them Arista, their position is understandable in the current uncertainty

[Toy Soldier]

I'm starting my own airline. "Toy Aeroplanes". It's the start of an empire. I don't have any planes yet but I do have a lot of enthusiasm and a Transit Van? So I'm going to convert the inside of the van to look and feel just like a plane, and there will be little round screens instead of windows that will just show sky / clouds on a loop, and you hop in and I drive you through the tunnel.

Its people like me that brave new bwitain needs goddamnit! Not those cowards at Easyjet!

It for sure is Cherie but sadly this is probably only likely the start of many in my view.
All will be likely dismissed as irrelevant.
However if big Companies in other Countries see Companies pulling out of the UK,I would doubt many,if in fact any in the end, would seriously want to then come here.

That is the knock on effect Companies leaving the UK could have.

You should have a lot of business for your 'make-believe' airline T.S. From:

1.All those who make believe that leaving the corrupt, inefficent EU wasn't THE only sensible option - DESPITE the evidence.

2. All those who are infantiley weeping and wailing because of Brexit, and crying: 'IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD' and flapping like demented chickens - instead of maturely and intelligently ACCEPTING that any adverse reaction was not only anticipated, but is short term.

I MUST POINT OUT HERE - TO SAVE MYSELF BEING BANNED FOR 'INSULTING MEMBERS' OR SOME OTHER UNWARRANTED CHARGE - THAT I AM NOT REFERRING TO MEMBERS OF THIS FORUM, BUT THOSE DOOMSAYERS IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

I have an idea for the name of your airline T.S. - howabout 'ARMAGGEDDONOUTAHERE AIRLINES'?
