The figures in Val's chart represent the 4.9 million Brits living abroad in Europe. Hmm, people (on both camps) need to get over this and move on. The truth is we are coming out of the EU and no one knows the long term consequences be they good or bad. We will still buy and sell with Europe, we make stuff they want and vice versa, the details will need to be ironed out, that's all. Immigrants will still want to come to the UK as we are a relatively wealthy developed country, being in or out makes no difference. We still need immigrants/seasonal workers to pick fruit and plug any skills gaps required by the free economy. The UK economy will eventually sort itself out. It's a global issue, in the grand scheme of things the EU is a medium sized fish at best. I don't think we should ever do any more referendums, If we voted to bring back hanging tomorrow we'd be stringing people up outside town halls and municipal buildings by the weekend! Don't believe the scaremongering, In the words of Lance corporal Jack Jones "don't panic, don't panic!" . . . Just my two pence worth.
I don't read that, I read British living ABROAD - not just in Europe.
What about the USA, Australia, Canada, China, India etc, etc, etc.
The pounds value has gone down because speculators need some form of "turmoil" to stimulate trade in currencies - without it (and with stability), they go bust.
Any news or change will be used by these parasites as an excuse to cause currency fluctuations (and economic instability), which are what they need to make money. Despite a vote for something that may, or may not, happen, the roller coaster has been started, wonder why ?
Lie to create a crisis, they make money. Lie to end a crisis, they make money - Never let the facts affect that.
