I'd like to throw in a couple of points as well here if you don't mind.

Firstly, the European Medicines Agency had to close its UK office because it is an EU agency, and we're not in the EU any longer. Besides, almost every one of the 900 staff were offered relocation packages if they wanted to transfer with the company.

Secondly, the European Banking Authority closed its Canary Wharf office for EXACTLY the same reason.
Another brilliant post Percy

Re: The Beginning of The End!

Hi

We are out at the end of Transition this year.

I am all in favour of Leaving, the EU is simply not for me.

Whether or not we make a Financial Success of it is down to our Government.

In other words, Boris.

He has to deliver on his promises.

Absolutely 100% correct, The ESA is staying in the UK and Solasch is talking rubbish as per. The ESA is opening a new business centre in Leicester, which I'm sure I posted about a couple of weeks ago. Here's another link to it: https://le.ac.uk/news/2020/june/esa-boost-space-park
